How to Create a Wholesale Line Sheet from Your Shopify Products

If you sell wholesale, the line sheet is your most important sales document. It's the single-page-per-product (or dense table) summary a buyer scans to decide what to order: image, SKU, wholesale price, case pack, and available variants. Get it right and orders come back clean; get it wrong and you're fielding email threads for a week.

What a good line sheet actually contains

A line sheet is not a lookbook. Buyers need to transact from it, so every row has to carry the data an order depends on:

• SKU and barcode — the identifier the buyer's system expects.
• Wholesale price — never your retail price. Often a separate column from MSRP.
• Variants — sizes or colorways, each orderable on its own line.
• Case pack / minimums — how the product ships.
• A blank quantity column — so the sheet doubles as an order form.

Why exporting from Shopify by hand breaks down

You can export products to CSV and format a spreadsheet, but it goes stale the moment a price or SKU changes, it isn't on-brand, and it gives the buyer nowhere to actually order. Most brands end up maintaining the sheet in one tool, prices in Shopify, and the order in email — three sources of truth that drift apart.

Generate the line sheet from your live catalog instead

The faster path is to generate the line sheet directly from your Shopify products so it always reflects current data. With Synova PDF Catalogue you pick a collection, choose the Line Sheet / Price List layout, and get a dense, print-ready table — one row per variant with SKU, barcode, wholesale price, stock, and a blank Qty column — branded in your fonts and colors in about thirty seconds.

Let buyers order from the sheet

The real time-saver is closing the loop. Turn the finished line sheet into a password-protected share link and switch on shoppable mode: buyers enter quantities per variant and their details, and the order arrives in your Shopify admin as a native draft order you review and invoice. No re-keying, no separate wholesale platform.
