Getting your invoices from the distributors is an important part of the import process. Without the right data, we can't figure out all of the details about the products you have. We'll help you get the right format of invoice to make sure everything goes smoothly.
Manage Comics supports: CSV Invoices from Diamond, Lunar, and Penguin Random House, as well as XLSX invoices from Universal Distribution.
How to get Diamond Invoices
Log in to your Diamond Retailer account and navigate to “My Account > Invoices”
Then click on “View Recent Invoices”
Select Invoice (CSV) as the invoice type.
Diamond names their invoices by the date, so they’re relatively easy to find later.
How to get Lunar Invoices
There are two places to get Invoices from Lunar, either the invoice itself, or the shipping manifest. The shipping invoice is available as soon as your order has been shipped and may be available before your invoice.
To find your shipment invoice, start at Account > Shipments
Click Account
Choose "Shipments" in the Account menu.
On the invoice you need the file for, click the "Select Format" dropdown
Choose the Manage Comics Shipment CSV file
To get to your Lunar invoices, go to lunardistribution.com and click on “Account > Invoices”
Click Account
Choose "Shipments" in the Account menu.
On the invoice you need the file for, click the "Select Format" dropdown
Choose the Manage Comics Invoice CSV file
Lunar names their invoices by the InvoiceID (a 5 digit number)
How to get Penguin Random House Invoices
Penguin Random House invoices can be found in the self service portal under "Orders" (1), "Invoices & Claims" (2), and then by clicking on the "Billing Doc #" (3).
From there you'll be taken to the invoice where you'll find a dropdown in the right hand side that says "Download Invoice"(1), opening that will give you the option to "Download CSV" (2), which Manage Comics can use.
We can also accept the PRH Pre Delivery Reports, but when we do use them, you will be able to find them on the main dashboard page of your Self-Service portal under "Upcoming Deliveries".
See our dedicated page on "Penguin Random House Invoices and Pre-Delivery Reports".
How to get Universal Distribution Invoices
Universal Distribution Invoices can be found by clicking on your account name in the upper right hand corner of the Universal portal (1), then clicking on Invoices & Cr. Memos (2).
In the Invoices and Credit Memos screen, click on the invoice you want to download (3).
From the Invoice Details screen, click the Download button (4), and then select Excel format (5).
