A hundred new products.
One upload.

Send the vendor's invoice and every product that is not in your catalog yet comes back ready to create, with the cost and the SKU already on it. You pick the category and the price, approve, and they are in Square. No scanning them in one at a time.

The Create New lane on the review screen: three lines from a four line invoice, each already marked Create New, each offering a catalog search to link to an existing item instead
Three of the four lines on this invoice are products the shop has never stocked. Each arrives marked Create New, with a search box in case it turns out you already have it.
Already have the items in Square? Then a purchase order works fine, and receiving a delivery against one is the page you want. This one is about the other case: the products that are not in your catalog yet.

Why a purchase order cannot do this

A Square purchase order is built from your existing catalog, so a product that is not in there yet cannot go on it. Which means the work happens before the purchase order, one item at a time: scan a barcode, type the name, pick the category, set the price, enter the quantity and the cost, and repeat. At a few hundred new items a week that is most of a day, every week. Sending the invoice skips all of it.

Put one invoice through it

Four steps, and you do two of them

A product you have never stocked is the ordinary case here, not an exception you handle by hand. Here is the whole job.

Send the invoice

A PDF, a photo of the paper copy, or a CSV. Whatever the vendor sent, as it came. No renaming columns, no converting anything first.

New items are already selected

Every line is checked against your Square catalog. Anything that is not in there yet arrives with create-new already chosen, so the new ones are the normal case rather than the exception. You are confirming a decision, not making one for every row.

Set the category and the price

You choose the category and the shelf price on the line, not in a spreadsheet column. The vendor's cost and the vendor's name come off the invoice with the line, so what you paid stays attached to the item instead of living in a folder of PDFs.

Approve, then receive

Nothing is written to Square until you approve it. When the boxes land, enter what actually arrived and your counts update from that, not from what the invoice promised.

We do not guess your prices

An invoice tells us what you paid. It does not tell us what you sell it for, and no multiplier is going to know that for your shop. So the shelf price is yours: you set it, and a price you do not set is not written.

The same rule covers the rest of it. Reading your catalog is all Fireworks does until you approve something. Nothing is created, nothing is repriced, and nothing is received until you have looked at the line and said yes.

$79 a month. Every invoice.

One price, however many invoices you send and however many new products are on them. No charge per purchase order, no per-document fee and no line caps, so you never stop to work out whether a small delivery is worth putting through.

Questions

Why don't Square purchase orders work for new items?
A Square purchase order is built from your existing catalog, so you can only add items that are already in it. Anything new has to exist in Square before the purchase order can reference it, which is the wrong way round when most of a delivery is new.
Does Fireworks set the retail price for me?
No, and that is deliberate. The invoice carries what you paid, not what you sell it for. You set the price, and a price you do not set is not written.
Can I choose the category before the item is created?
Yes. You pick the category on the line, before anything is pushed to Square, so new items do not land in a holding category you have to clean up later.
What happens to items I have received before?
They match to what you already sell. Fireworks remembers what you decided last time, so the same vendor's next invoice is mostly already done.
What does it cost?
$79 a month for everything, with a 14-day free trial and no card to start. Unlimited invoices, no charge per purchase order, no line caps, and it works on any Square plan including the free one.
What do I have to do to try it?
Connect your Square account and send one invoice. Fourteen days free, no card, and you can cancel inside the trial without being charged.
Do I need Square Plus or Premium?
No. Fireworks works with every Square plan, including the free one.
Does Fireworks change my Square catalog without asking?
No. You review every line and approve it. Nothing reaches your Square catalog until you push it.
