Take control of your costs and keep your expenses organized.

Adding your suppliers makes it easy to track every penny and provides real-time insights into exactly what you owe. When your supplier list is set up, you can record outgoings in seconds and see your full spending history whenever you need it most.




Add a new supplier

It only takes a moment to add a new contact.

Having your suppliers ready in QuickBooks means you'll never have to type their details twice, helping you manage your outgoing cash more effectively. Here’s how:

  1. Go to All apps A bunch of numbers and letters on a tile wall., select Expenses & Bills, then select Suppliers (Take me there).
  2. Select New supplier.
  3. Complete the fields in the Supplier information window.
  4. Select Save.

Great work, your supplier is saved. Now that they're on your list, you can create your first bill or expense for them to keep your costs tracked in real-time.


Make a supplier inactive

While you cannot delete suppliers, you can make them permanently inactive.

  1. Go to All apps A bunch of numbers and letters on a tile wall., select Expenses & Bills, then select Suppliers (Take me there).
  2. Select Make inactive in the dropdown â–Ľ beside the supplier you want to make inactive.

Instead of making them inactive, consider merging accounts, customers, and suppliers.
