How to Import Purchase Orders into Your ERP
The goal isn't just extracting a PO — it's getting it into your ERP without re-keying. Here's how to turn a PO PDF into an import file your system accepts.
Match your ERP's import columns
Most ERPs import orders from a CSV with a specific column layout: item/SKU, quantity, UOM, unit price, and a ship-to. The converter outputs exactly these fields, one row per line, so the file maps to your import template.
Keep header fields on every line
Because the PO number, buyer, and ship-to are repeated on each line-item row, the file imports cleanly whether your ERP expects a flat line list or a header-plus-lines structure.
Batch the day's orders
Pro converts many POs at once into a combined workbook, so a distributor doing dozens of orders a day can process them in one pass instead of one at a time.
Reduce order-entry errors
Typed SKUs and quantities are where costly order-entry mistakes happen. Pulling them straight from the PO removes the transcription step, so what you import is what the customer sent.
