How to add note for vendor (not customer)

nam · ‎December 10, 2018

in the older version i used to be able to write the note to any vendor as in the picture.

In this quickbooks desktop pro 2015 version, i do not see the option to add note for vendor, or edit the previous saved note as in the picture https://www.screencast.com/t/q5bT5SGa .

How do i add note to vendor now?

(i can attach a text file to vendor, but that is not what I want)

Hi nam,

You’ll want to use the Notes tab on the Vendor Information page to add notes for this Vendor.

Go to Vendors.
Choose Vendor Center.
Click the name of the Vendor.
Click the Notes tab.
At the bottom, click the Manage Notes button.
Choose Add New.
Enter the note and click OK.

I’ve added a screenshot for your reference. Let me know if you have questions.

Have a good day!

I add notes to our vendors. How can I add them to a report? I want to add them to a 1099 report. When I customize report there is a notes option to include - when I include it - nothing is populating? Is this a different notes location?

We appreciate you joining the thread, Noah. I'd like to share some insights about adding notes to your vendor for it to show on 1099 reports.

The ability to display vendor notes on 1099 reports is currently unavailable in QuickBooks Desktop. I suggest providing this feedback to our product engineers. By doing this, they can improve your QuickBooks experience.

I'll show you how:

Open the Help menu.
Click on Send feedback online.
Select Product suggestion.
Fill out all the necessary information.
Lastly, click on Send feedback.

Once you're good, feel free to browse these modules to learn more about handling vendor transactions and 1099s in QBDT.

You can always comment back if you need anything else with vendors, 1099, or QuickBooks in general. I'll make sure to respond as soon as possible. Take care of yourself.
