To link compliance results to actual shipments, you must import your orders into Polygon One. Each order captures the supplier, the articles, and the quantities.
The Excel template (.xlsx) is the recommended download. It contains a second sheet, “Guide”, listing each column’s requirement, description and accepted values. The CSV template is the plain alternative without that sheet. In coded columns the code (e.g. purchase) always works — the import additionally accepts the label as Polygon One displays it in your interface language (Purchase, Einkauf on a German login).
The columns in template order. Conditional means: required as soon as the condition in the description applies.

During order import, suppliers and articles can be created automatically if they do not yet exist. The system matches by name or external ID.
Under Settings → CSV Imports → Orders, you can permanently map your own column names to the Polygon One fields. This way, you do not have to redo the mapping for every import.
