Using the Spreadsheet
- Open the MS Excel Spreadsheet.
Note: Do not change the order of the columns, or insert new columns into the spreadsheet. Doing so will make the sheet unable to be imported.
- Right-click the column headers for the CPT and NDC columns and select Format Cells to set the cell format to Text to prevent MS Excel from stripping leading zeros.
- Enter the manufacturer name into the Manufacturer column of the spreadsheet.
- Enter the drug description into the Inventory Description column of the spreadsheet.

Note: Location must match the location name in Location Master exactly.
