Overview
With Fergus, you can now receive your supplier's price books directly, without any manual input or data entry. This means you can stay up-to-date with the latest prices and products, saving you time and effort.
Getting Started
To set up direct price book integration with Fergus, follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Go to Settings
The first step is to go to the Settings page in your Fergus account. You can access this by clicking on the gear icon in the top right corner of your screen.
Step 2: Open the Integrations Page
Once you are on the Settings page, click on the Integrations tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
Step 3: Find Your Supplier
Scroll through the list of available integrations until you find your supplier. Please make sure to check your supplier supports direct price book integration with Fergus.
Step 4: Enable the Integration
If your supplier supports price books, click on the toggle button next to their name to enable the integration.
Step 5: Share the Unique Email Address
After enabling the integration, a unique email address will be provided to you. Copy this email address and share it with your supplier.
Please note: Some suppliers will allow you to configure this straight from their portal.
Once your supplier has the unique email address, they can send their price books directly to Fergus. Whenever they send a price book to this email, Fergus will automatically upload it and update your existing records. This means you can easily access and use the most up-to-date pricing information for your quotes and invoices.
Disabling a Price Book Integration
Not every supplier's toggle works the same way — it depends on whether the supplier has a single combined integration or several separate ones.
Bundled ("Premium") Suppliers
Some suppliers (for example J.A. Russell and Scott Electrical) are set up as a single combined integration that covers Invoicing, Purchase Orders, Price Books, and Credit Notes together. For these suppliers, one toggle controls everything — you can't switch off just the Price Book on its own without also disabling invoicing, purchase orders, and credit notes for that supplier.
If you only want to stop that supplier's price book while keeping invoicing/purchase orders/credit notes active, go to Settings → Price Books and remove the price book from the list instead. This won't affect the rest of that supplier's integration.
Single-Service Suppliers
Other suppliers (for example Bunnings Trade) only offer one integration service to begin with — Price Books only. For these, the toggle in Settings → Integrations controls just that one service, so switching it off is enough to stop the price book without affecting anything else.
Please note: If you're unsure whether a supplier is bundled or single-service, check how many services are listed under their name in Settings → Integrations. A supplier with only one toggle covering multiple document types (Invoicing, Purchase Orders, Price Books, Credit Notes) is a combined integration.
Validation Requirements for Price Books
We are introducing stricter validation for standard and premium price books to improve product matching.
⚠️ Restriction
Standard and premium price books must have unique product codes. No duplicates are allowed within a single file.
Required fields for standard and premium price books:
Product Code (must be unique within the file)
Product Name
Cost Price
Please note: Custom price books are not subject to these validation checks.
If validation fails:
Drag and drop uploads: Error message displays on screen
Email integration: Check supplier integration logs for details
