Imports guidance

Import suppliers

Map, validate and import supplier records while handling duplicates deliberately.

FOR
Procurement, Organisation administrator
OUTCOME
Use RAQOZ to map, validate and import supplier records while handling duplicates deliberately.

Before you begin

  • A source file you are authorised to use.
  • Stable identifiers and clean headers for the records being imported.

Guidance

  1. 1

    Prepare the supplier file using consistent identifiers and contact data.

  2. 2

    Map source columns to the available RAQOZ fields.

  3. 3

    Review validation and duplicate results before writing records.

  4. 4

    Choose skip or update behavior deliberately and retain the import outcome.

Evidence RAQOZ retains

  • Source and column mapping
  • Validation preview
  • Created, updated, skipped and failed outcomes

Common issues

Rows fail validation.

Correct required fields, formats or mappings in the source and validate again. Review duplicate treatment before any write.

Imported history appears incomplete.

Check mapping and row outcomes. Historical data remains provenance-labelled evidence and must not create live approvals, receipts or payment states.
