Manufacturers
Who makes your products? Which brands do you sell? PlentyONE helps you manage your manufacturer data.
Procedure
-
First, create the necessary manufacturer data records manually or via import.
-
Then add commission models as needed.
-
Finally, specify who manufactured each of your items. This is done by linking your items to manufacturers.
-
Should your customers be able to search in the plentyShop for products made by a specific manufacturer? Customise the plentyShop settings as needed.
1. Creating manufacturer data records
-
Go to Setup » Item » Manufacturers.
-
Click on New.
→ The New manufacturer tab opens. -
Enter the manufacturer data.

PlentyONE has an import tool. The idea is simple. Rather than manually saving manufacturer information in PlentyONE, you’ll enter the same information into a CSV file and then import this file into your system.

Can I save my manufacturer data in the CRM menu instead?
Maybe you noticed that it’s possible to create manufacturer data records in the CRM menu. But be careful. This data is not transferred over to the menu Setup » Item » Manufacturers. Therefore, we recommend that you ignore the manufacturer data in the CRM menu for now. |
| Setting | Explanation |
