For Excel Files:

Step 1:

1. In the Excel file, you must have 4 columns.
a. The first column is the Part Number.
b. The second column is the Manufacturer's Name.
c. The third column is the Part Quantity. MUST contain 0 decimal places.
d. The fourth column is the Product Description. Maximum characters allowed are 60 and additional characters will be truncated (This column is NOT required however the first 3 are).
***NOTE: The first row is empty because it is ignored and the fourth column is not absolutely necessary.

Step 2:


After you format your file, you must always name it the ID number given to you. For instance,
if your assigned ID number is 1234, then your file should be called 1234.csv (Excel).

To save as a .CSV format. Choose File from the menu, then choose Save As.

Then name your file with your ID number, and choose "CSV (Comma Delimited) (*csv)" from the drop down menu.

***NOTE: If you haven't been assigned an ID number, it's because we haven't verified your
inventory file yet. You must go to Distributor Upload Request Form and attach
your file.

 

For Text Files:

Step 1:

1. The Text file has 4-fields of information: Part number, Manufacturer's Name, Part Qty, Product Description
***NOTE: There has to be double quotes before and after each field and each field has to be
separated by a comma!!! And, if you are unable to include the Product Description your file will not be rejected.

Step 2:


After you format your file, you must always name it the ID number given to you. For instance,
if your assigned ID number is 1234, then your file should be called 1234.txt (Text).
***NOTE: If you haven't been assigned an ID number, it's because we haven't verified your
inventory file yet. You must go to Distributor Upload Request Form and attach
your file.
