Supplier Categories

You can group Suppliers of a similar type together using Supplier Categories. All Suppliers of the same Category can be given the same default Creditor Account, saving you the work of having to specify this for all Suppliers individually.

If you specify a Creditor Account both for a Supplier Category and for a Supplier that belongs to that Category, the Creditor Account entered for the Supplier will take precedence. If you do not specify a Creditor Account for a Category or a Supplier, the Creditor Account specified in the Account Usage P/L setting will be used.

To work with Supplier Categories, first select 'Settings' from the File menu or click [Settings] in the Master Control panel. Double-click 'Supplier Categories' in the resulting list. The 'Supplier Categories: Browse' window is displayed, showing all Categories previously entered. Click [New] to enter a new record, and [Save] to save it.
