Adding a supplier
How to add a supplier of parts and goods: the counterparty card, its details and the link to purchasing and the warehouse
Updated
A supplier is the counterparty parts and goods are bought from. Once added, a supplier is filled into purchasing tickets and into stock receipts in the warehouse, so for every part it is clear where it came from and at what price.

The supplier card
A supplier is added with the “Add” button and described by a name and contact details — phone, address and the responsible person orders go through.
The supplier list works the same way as the reference books: an entry can be edited, temporarily switched off with the “Active/Disabled” toggle, or deleted. A disabled supplier stays in the purchases of previous periods, but new orders can no longer be placed with them.
