Self-import is included with your subscription at no extra cost. Importing serialized inventory bulk-loads your serialized items into FieldPulse so they're ready to add to [estimates and invoices](https://www.fieldpulse.com/features/estimates-and-invoices) — no need to enter each unit by hand. Download the Mass Serialized Item Import template, fill it in, verify it, and upload it. ## Overview You import serialized inventory from **Company Settings > Estimates & Invoices > Item List** — the same place you import your standard item list. FieldPulse gives you the Mass Serialized Item Import template to fill in, checks your data for errors before anything is saved, and imports the clean records. ## Before you begin Have your serialized item data ready in a spreadsheet so you can copy it into the template. If you don't have Excel, use Google Sheets instead — see [How to Self-Import Data With Google Sheets](/settings/data/self-import-google-sheets). **Item Name**, **Hub**, and **Serial Number** are the template's required columns — each one is marked with an asterisk in the header row. Follow these field rules so your items pass verification the first time: * **Item names must be unique.** * **SKUs must be unique** and can be alphanumeric. * **Do not use equations** in the Unit Cost or Unit Price fields — enter plain numbers. * **Do not put spaces after the commas** in the Tags field. * **Serialized items are Product - Inventory items.** Serialized inventory applies only to line items whose Item Type is **Product - Inventory**, not **Service** or **Product - Non Inventory** — see [Serialized Inventory Overview](/inventory-materials/item-list/serialized-inventory). ## Import your serialized inventory 1. Go to **Company Settings**, then select **Estimates & Invoices**. 2. Select **Item List** in the sub-header, then select **Mass Import**. The Item List subtab under Estimates & Invoices in Company Settings, with the Mass Import button highlighted next to Mass Export and Create Item 3. In the **Serialized Item Import** prompt, select **Download** to download the **Mass Serialized Item Import** template. The Serialized Item Import prompt with four numbered steps and buttons to download the template, verify the file for errors, and re-upload it 4. Paste your serialized item data into the template, following the field rules above. Keep the column headers and structure exactly as they are — do not rearrange or rename columns. 5. Select **Verify** to check the completed file for errors. FieldPulse flags any errors or missing required information in red and shows a count of valid and invalid records in the top-right corner. The Serialized Item Management verification screen with a record's blank Hub and Serial Number cells outlined in red and the top-right counter showing 2 records — 1 valid, 1 invalid 6. Fix the flagged fields until every record shows as **Valid**, then select **Export to .xlsx**. The same verification screen with both serialized records complete and marked valid, and the Export to .xlsx button highlighted in the top-right corner 7. Re-upload the verified file with the **Upload** button to finish the import. Verifying before you import means you catch bad data once, up front — instead of troubleshooting failed items across several reimports. ## Related articles * [How to Import Data into FieldPulse](/settings/data/importing-data) * [How to Import Your Item List](/settings/data/importing-item-list) * [Serialized Inventory Overview](/inventory-materials/item-list/serialized-inventory) * [How to Self-Import Data With Google Sheets](/settings/data/self-import-google-sheets) Your serialized inventory import is done when every record in the template shows as **Valid**, you've exported the verified file, and re-uploaded it — your serialized items now live in your item list, ready to add to estimates and invoices. ## Related topics - [Serialized Inventory Overview](/inventory-materials/item-list/serialized-inventory.md) - [How to Bulk Transfer Serialized Inventory](/inventory-materials/item-list/bulk-transfer-serialized.md) - [How to Create Serialized Inventory Reports](/reporting/raw-data/serialized-inventory-reports.md) - [How to Import Your Item List](/settings/data/importing-item-list.md)
