Export your suppliers to a CSV file to analyse them in Excel or share them outside oboloo. This guide is for users with permission to export supplier data.
Before you start
Export your suppliers
Open the Suppliers page
Go to Supplier Management > Suppliers.
Click Export
Click Export above the Supplier List table, next to Add New Supplier. The file supplier.csv downloads to your device.
What happens next
One row per Active supplier: with its ID, Supplier Name, Description / Notes, Supplier ID, Supplier Type, industries, locations and departments.
Compliance and status columns: Expired Documents, Unapproved Documents, Preferred Status, Contract (1 if the supplier has a linked contract, 0 if not) and Linked Contract.
Commercial and company details: payment term, shipping term and method, company and tax numbers, parent/child relationship, Managed By and the address.
Latest scores and custom fields: the latest Risk, Performance and Sustainability scores, then one column per supplier custom field.
Troubleshooting
I can't see the Export button
Your role doesn't have the Export permission for Supplier Management. Ask your system administrator to update your role.
The Export button is greyed out
The export data is still loading, or there are no Active suppliers. Wait a moment and try again.
The file has more suppliers than my filtered table
The export doesn't use the table's filters or search. Filter the CSV after downloading it.
A supplier is missing from the file
Only Active suppliers are exported. Unapproved, Rejected and Archived suppliers are left out. See Archive and Unarchive Suppliers.
