Suppliers are companies or individuals who provide you with products or
|
|
services. They are treated in exactly the same manner as Customers in ERPNext.
|
|
|
|
You can create a new Supplier via:
|
|
|
|
> Buying > Documents > Supplier > New Supplier

### Contacts and Addresses
|
|
|
|
Contacts and Addresses in ERPNext are stored separately so that you can attach
|
|
multiple Contacts or Addresses to Customers and Suppliers. To add a Contact or
|
|
Address go to Buying and click on “New Contact” or “New Address”.
|
|
|
|
> Tip: When you select a Supplier in any transaction, one Contact and Address
|
|
gets pre-selected. This is the “Default Contact or Address”. So make sure you
|
|
set your defaults correctly!
|
|
|
|
### Integration with Accounts
|
|
|
|
In ERPNext, there is a separate Account record for each Supplier, of Each
|
|
company.
|
|
|
|
When you create a new Supplier, ERPNext will automatically create an Account
|
|
Ledger for the Supplier under “Accounts Payable” in the Company set in the
|
|
Supplier record.
|
|
|
|
> Advanced Tip: If you want to change the Account Group under which the
|
|
Supplier Account is created, you can set it in the Company master.
|
|
|
|
If you want to create an Account in another Company, just change the Company
|
|
value and “Save” the Supplier again.
