Overview

You can import products into a contract from an excel spreadsheet. There are some cases where you have a price list and you want to convert it to a contract. If so, importing the products into a contract may be the fastest way to go if there are more than one hundred products in the contract. If there are less than 100 products, we recommend typing the products in manually or copying them from a quote.

You can also copy a quote to a contract. In some cases this will be a lot easier than importing an excel spreadsheet.


Procedure

  1. First thing that will need to be done is to create a CSV spread sheet with the required data.
