Can a supplier also be a customer account on QB?

Thanks for joining us here on the Community, atek_finance-ate

 

Customers and suppliers post to separate default debtors and creditors account in QuickBooks Online, so you'd need to create a separate customer and supplier for this. If you're needing to record a contra payment between the two accounts, you can then do this using a journal entry, selecting the debtor's account (under 'account') and customer (under 'name') on one line, and the creditors (under 'account') and supplier (under 'name') on the second line. :)

(from memory) the customer & supplier names need to be different.

(i.e. the displayed ID names)
