Import Suppliers from System

When importing suppliers to the list, the possibility is enabled for invoices issued by those suppliers to be uploaded and processed through the Axonset Cloud Portal (Supplier Portal). When inviting a supplier for the first time, their primary contact will automatically receive administrator permissions, as well as access to ACS Management. This contact will act as the administrator of the supplier’s account, with the ability to add other contact users to facilitate communication and management within the platform.

This feature allows you to import suppliers in bulk using a .csv file or through a system such as SAP Concur. In this manual, you will see how to import suppliers from a system. To access this feature, follow these steps:

1. Within ACS Management, go to the “Suppliers” section.

2. Select the option “Supplier Catalog“.

3. Click on “Import Suppliers.”

4. Click on “LOAD FROM SYSTEM”.

Imported suppliers can have one of the following statuses:

New: This status is shown when the supplier is new and has not been invited to be part of ACS Management as a Supplier. It may also be the case that they have been previously invited but ignored the invitation email.

In Progress: This status is shown when the supplier is in the process of completing their account registration in ACS Management but has not yet finished.

Registered: This status occurs when the supplier has already registered previously on their own initiative or by invitation from another supplier.

Accepted: This status is shown when the supplier has already completed their account registration in ACS Management and has been accepted as a supplier; it is displayed in My Suppliers.

Error: This status is shown when there is an error in the data imported from the .csv document. This data can be corrected individually so that the status changes with the Edit Record or Download CSV function.
