How do I enter codes purchased through the Volume Purchas site into Configurator so I may load them onto ipads on a cart?

Answer 1

There is no short answer.
I've created a 10 page tip sheet. See the link a the bottom
I have to guess how many steps you've done, so this advice may be starting in the wrong spot. 
=============================
a) I assume you used appleid of the faciltator who buys VPP apps on the VPP portal and then downloads the XLS file of codes (done)
b) I assume you have an appleid of another user. That appleid must be setup in itunes on the laptop/desktop with Osx10.8.  You then launch itunes and use itunes redeem link to get one copy of the paid app.  The code for that redeem link comes from your your spreadsheet from step A. Copy and paste from excel or use googlge docs to copy/paste the code.
==========================
itunes now has downloaded on copy of the paid app (stored in your documents folder, deep in your itunes folder of  your laptop/desktop)  Open configurator and hit the plus icon in configurator and that app is added to your list of apps with the licence count set to 1.
Now comes one more not so obvious step, LOgon to the VPP portal and download the XLS file again with all the codes.  
In configurator click the mouse on the number 1 in your count of licenses.   That will bring up a set of dialogs to import the 2nd version of your XLS codes.  When that is done your count goes from 1 to x, where x might be 50 codes.  
All of what I've posted here is documented by apple in several KB articles and their 80 page guide, or you can just read my 10 page tip sheet below...
