What Foreshelf records for each supplier and why it matters for forecasting.

Minimum order amount
Email and contact -- for automatic purchase-order delivery.

Import from Stocky

Stocky does not offer a dedicated supplier-contact export — Foreshelf rebuilds suppliers from your exported purchase-order history (the supplier name is present on each order line). Actual lead times are recalculated from that history, often more accurately than a manually entered value. Full details: Stocky Migration.
