Before you start

Prepare the information the order needs

The supplier name and ordering email address.
A catalogue source, CSV file or supported XML file.
The products and quantities your business intends to order.

The complete process

What happens at each stage

Order Helper keeps collection, review and sending separate so that supplier information does not become an order before your team checks it.

1

Add Supplier

Create or confirm the supplier record, save the catalogue source and add the email address that should receive the order. Correct supplier details prevent the finished order from being sent to the wrong contact.

ResultA reusable supplier record ready for product collection and ordering.
2

Scan Catalogue

Select the saved source and start the scan. Order Helper gathers the detected product information and places it in a review stage. Nothing should be treated as final until your team checks the result.

ResultDetected product data that can be reviewed before import.
3

Review and Import Products

Check product names, identifiers, categories, prices and other useful fields. Correct incomplete information and keep only the products your business needs in its ordering workspace.

Control pointThis is where supplier data becomes clean, usable ordering data.
4

Build and Send Order

Select the required products and quantities, confirm the supplier and add an optional message. Complete one final review before sending the order to the supplier.

ResultA structured order sent to the correct supplier contact.

Flexible product entry

Choose the product source that fits your work

Catalogue scanning is one route. Order Helper also supports controlled file-based imports when your team or supplier already maintains structured product data.

Catalogue

Scan a supplier source

Use a saved catalogue source and review the products detected by Order Helper.

CSV

Import a controlled list

Use CSV when your team already maintains a supplier product list in the required structure.

XML

Import structured data

Use a supported XML file when the supplier provides structured product information.

After the order is sent

The Supplier CRM gives your team one place to review order activity, supplier communication and useful internal notes. A dedicated CRM guide is included later in this Help Centre.
