What Orchid Does With This File

Standard vendor import with FFL augmentation.

Before You Start

  • Bravo has a built-in Vendor List report.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Sign in to Bravo.
  2. Open the Reports module > Vendor reports.
  3. Run the Vendor List report (or use Custom Report Builder if you need additional fields).
  4. Export as Excel.
  5. If a dedicated vendor list isn't available, run a Purchase Order History grouped by Vendor.

Expected File Format

Excel (.xlsx)

Expected Columns

  • Vendor ID
  • Vendor Name
  • Contact
  • Phone
  • Email
  • Address
  • Terms
  • Account Number
  • FFL Number (where stored)

Watch Out For

  • Bravo's vendor records typically include both retail-product vendors and pawn buy-sources. Orchid POS migrates the retail vendors only.

This file may contain sensitive information (customer addresses, pricing, costs). Send it to Orchid using the secure upload link your consultant provided. Do not email exports as unencrypted attachments.
