Catalogues

The Catalogue page displays all of the products available for your company's outlets to order for each supplier. Head office and supplier users both have access to this page to view and download product catalogues.

If you are using Aztec to manage your catalogues, Zonal can install and maintain the ZBS Product Catalogue Importer. This uploads Aztec catalogues into Acquire, and can be configured to update Acquire with all changes made in Aztec

Navigate to Admin Functions | Catalogues

Uploading Catalogues

Follow these steps to upload a catalogue:

Select the required supplier from the drop down
Select the required outlets group from the available list
Select the Catalogues icon to upload new and view existing supplier catalogues.

Supplier catalogues can be maintained by head office and supplier managers if ‘Supplier Catalogues’ has been enabled for the company

Enabled by Zonal on request
Enter Catalogue Name
Select Browse and navigate to the required file
Select Upload Catalogue

A progress icon and information about the upload is displayed on screen

Once complete, a success message is briefly displayed and the existing supplier catalogues are displayed on the right hand side in icon (as shown above) or detail view (as shown below).

If a catalogue fails to upload, a message will be displayed listing precise information about the reason for the failure and the line numbers of the catalogue that contain the errors.

If configured in Notifications, you may also receive an email notification for the catalogue upload failure. The email will also include the same detail about the errors as the message above.

Further information about the structure and format of the catalogue upload file is provided in a separate Supplier Catalogues Guide, which is available on request. Please submit requests to your Zonal Account Representative.

Zonal recommends checking the unit of measurement, as it must be GS1 standard, non GS1 items in the catalogue will fail to upload and may cause communication issues with your suppliers
