Use this process to import invoices from Plate IQ into reciProfity. Before you begin, complete the following setup steps to ensure accurate matching.
1. Match Vendor Names
Make sure the Vendor Name in reciProfity matches the Vendor ID in Plate IQ.
To find the Vendor ID in Plate IQ:
- Select your unit.
- Locate the vendor in the left-hand column.
- Click the vendor name and find the Vendor ID.
- Use this Vendor ID as the Vendor Name in reciProfity.
If you’ve already entered vendors in reciProfity and the names don’t match, do not add a new vendor. Instead, update the existing vendor name in reciProfity. This change will automatically apply to all associated ingredients.
2. Load Inventory First
Upload your inventory (typically via order guides) before importing invoices. reciProfity matches items using both the vendor name and the item code.

Once you've completed the setup, you can run the import.
- From the Main Menu, click Manage Inventory > Invoices.
