Supplier Codes in Inventory
Supplier codes are alpha-numeric codes that are attributed to variants. They are useful for you to reference the supplier of this variant and product quickly.
When you create a variant, you can attribute a supplier code to it. When filling in the details of a new variant, you will come across the field to input the supplier code.
You can also attribute supplier codes in bulk to multiple variants. To do this, go into Inventory > Products > Bulk Manage > Update existing products. Fill the Supplier Code column on the CSV, and upload it into QuickBooks Commerce.
Finally, you can also search for a variant in your Inventory by its supplier code. Go into Inventory > Variants, and then type the code into the search bar on the page's top right.
Supplier Codes in Purchase Orders
When you create a new purchase order, in addition to using the variant name or SKU, you can also search for the variant by typing in the supplier code. Under the 'Item Name' column, type in the relevant supplier code, and it will generate the variant link for you to select.
