How to Manage Vendors in Quickbook

Does your business regularly pay other businesses or subcontractors? If so, you’ll need to add them as vendors to your Quickbooks account. Quickbooks supports both customers and vendors. Customers, of course, are individuals who pay your business for its products or services. Vendors, on the other hand, are businesses and subcontractors who receive money from your business. In Quickbooks, you can easily manage your business’s vendors in just a few simple steps.

Adding New Vendors

To add a new vendor to your Quickbooks account, click the “Expenses” menu and select “Vendors.” From here, choose the option labeled “New Vendor,” after which you’ll see a window with data fields. You’ll need to go through these fields while adding the necessary information about the vendor. The vendor window contains fields for the vendor’s name, title, display name, billing address and optional notes. After completing the appropriate fields, select “Save and close.” The vendor should now be added to your Quickbooks account.

Of course, you should use caution to ensure that you don’t add the same vendor multiple times. In cases of duplicate vendors, you have one of two options: You can either make the duplicate vendor inactivate, or you can merge the duplicate vendor with the original vendor. Allowing duplicate vendors to go unchecked can lead to accounting errors. If the same vendor is listed twice in your Quickbooks account, it can throw off his or her transaction records. For proper bookkeeping, you should either make the duplicate vendor inactive or merge it with the original vendor.

Find All Transactions Involving a Vendor

You can also find all transactions involving a particular vendor. This is done by going back to the “Expenses” menu and selecting “Vendors.” Rather than selecting “New Vendor,” though, scroll through the list until you see the vendor’s name. After finding the vendor’s name, you can select it. You should then see all transactions involving the vendor under the “Transaction List” section.

Print Transactions Involving a Vendor

Quickbooks also allows you to print transactions involving a vendor. To do this, follow the steps listed above to find and select the vendor in your Quickbooks Account. Next, select the “Filter” menu to narrow down the vendor’s recorded transactions. Once you’ve found the transaction that you’d like to print, select the printer button.
