Before importing, the supplier and contact at the company (if set in the import) need to be in Zigaflow. Otherwise, the import will fail.

These columns are compulsory in the import file:

  • ID - this is just the reference from the previous system, such as the purchase order number

  • Status (the Zigaflow status)

  • Supplier

  • Assigned User Email - the user the purchase order will be assigned to in Zigaflow

  • Initial Assigned User Email - the initial user the purchase order will be assigned to in Zigaflow

  • Required Date

  • Expected Date

1. Click on the Cog

4. Click "Download Template" for the template spreadsheet

5. More than one PO can be imported at a time.

The template consists of three areas: header, section name, and item details.

6. For each item in an PO, there needs to be a complete row. This means that the master PO details, such as the supplier name or note, need to be repeated on each line. Similarly, the section name (if given) needs to be repeated for all the items in the section.
