Before you start the import there are two things you will need to do:
1. Make sure the vendor name in reciProfity matches The vendor ID in Plate IQ .
Where to find the vendor ID in Plate IQ:
In Plate IQ find your unit, then find the vendor in the left hand column. Click on the vendor name and look for Vendor ID. Use this Vendor ID in reciProfity as the Vendor Name.
If you have already entered your vendors in reciProfity and it doesn't match the Plate IQ Vendor ID DON'T add a new vendor name. Just change the vendor name in reciProfity and that will ripple through all of those vendor's ingredients!
2. Load your inventory in reciProfity (usually through uploading order guides) BEFORE you import your invoices. In addition to matching by vendor name reciProfity looks to match the item code for that vendor's items.
To run the Plate IQ Invoice Import.
From the Main Menu click Manage Inventory/ Invoices:
