Add a product to a Buy List using a Purchase Plus Product ID (pp_product_id)

In this section we will show you how to add a product to your Buy List using a 'pp_product_id'

A Supplier may provide you with a pp_product_id for an item in Purchase Plus. This is the unique number that Purchase Plus uses to identify a product.

You can add products to your Buy Lists using this pp_product_id without having to search through the supplier's catalogue.
​
