    ABuying information

    The selections you make here will be used, by default, on quotes, orders and bills that you create for this supplier. You can override these selections when recording a purchase.

    If you want to learn about each option, hover your mouse over the field to display the field help (you'll need field help turned on, go to Help > Show Field Help).

    BTax /GST information

    Enter the supplier’s tax/GST information here.

    (Australia only) When entering an ABN, it will be checked with the Australian Business Register. If the number is valid, a green icon will appear next to the ABN field. If there’s an issue with the number, the icon will be yellow. Hover over the icon to get all the details.

    (Australia only) If this is a supplier you pay for building and construction services, you need to select the Report on Taxable Payments option, and enter their ABN. However, before you can select this option, you need to set up reportable taxable payments.

    If the supplier’s tax/GST status takes precedence over that of the item or service being sold, click the Use Supplier’s Tax Code (Australia) or Use Supplier’s GST Code (New Zealand) option. See Setting up tax codes.

    CCredit termsThe credit terms entered here are used as the default terms for all purchases from the supplier, but can be changed at any time. If field help is enabled, hover your mouse cursor over the fields to read a description of each field.
  10. (Not Basics) Click the Payment Details tab to enter your supplier’s bank account details, so you can pay them electronically. You can also specify how you prefer to send remittance advices to the supplier - by print or email.
  11. (Not Basics) You can click the History tab and type the dollar value of the purchases made prior to your conversion month. You can also enter the date that the contact became a supplier.
  12. Click OK to save the card.
