Tips
- Use this to bulk-set HS codes by product category — filter by category first, then apply the correct code for that product type.
- Set Country of Origin after onboarding a new supplier — filter by supplier, then apply their country.
- The Handling Instructions field is useful for warehouse notes — e.g., “Keep upright” or “Temperature sensitive”.
