Importing or exporting supplier records
You can update your supplier record in an efficient and easy way by using the export and import functionality in Visma eEkonomi Pro. To be able to import the supplier record to the program, the file must be created as a comma-separated CSV file. You can read more about saving data in CSV format below.
When you import a CSV file to Visma eEkonomi Pro, for the import to be successful it is important that each column has the correct header, is in the correct order, uses correct coding, and has a value in the mandatory fields. The column header represents the fields you find when you create a new supplier in Visma eEkonomi Pro. Please see the field explanations below for more information. Please see the field explanations below for more information. An easy way to create a file with correct headings and format is to export a supplier record to use as a template for an import. Read more about how to export and import a correctly formatted CSV file below.
Add or update supplier records
In order to update your supplier record, you export a CSV (Excel) file, update the supplier record and then import the record into the program again. Please note that if a value is unique (for example a supplier number), the value will not change in the program even if it has changed in the CSV file. If you make changes to a unique value, the program will add a new supplier when you import the file, and leave the original supplier unchanged.
Delete suppliers
It is not possible to delete suppliers from a record by exporting and importing. Rows that are deleted from an exported file and that later is imported into Visma eEkonomi Pro again will still be shown in Visma eEkonomi Pro.
Default value
When adding new suppliers there are fields that are not mandatory but still have a value by default, for example the field Terms of payment. If you add rows to a CSV file but do not add values before you import the file into Visma eEkonomi Pro, the program will add the default value for you.
Create a correctly formatted CSV file
To obtain a correctly formatted CSV file that you can use, proceed as follows:
- Create a new supplier in Visma eEkonomi Pro. Read more in the topic Add supplier.
- Choose to export the supplier record. Read more in the topic Import or export records (CSV file).
A comma-separated CSV file with the exported supplier record is then created.
- Delete the supplier in the program. Read more in the topic Delete supplier.
The file can now be used for importing records.
- Select Save as in the format comma-separated CSV file at the required spot.
- You can now start pasting in your supplier information that you want to import to Visma eEkonomi Pro into the different fields of the CSV file.
Saving data in the CSV format
For importing to the program to work problem-free, all data must be saved in the correct way in a comma-separated CSV file. In the file, information is separated with semicolons. In Microsoft, the file is called CSV comma separated or CSV comma delimited, depending on which Office package you have installed. In Mac, the same format is called Windows comma delimited (.CSV).
The format in which your exported information is created can vary slightly depending on the program, but you can format them so the information can be imported into Visma eEkonomi Pro.
