Setup & Settings
Suppliers & payments (enable)
Turn on Suppliers and Supplier pay in the sidebar for lightweight payables tracking.
When to enable
Billing is invoice-first by default. Enable suppliers only if you pay vendors occasionally (walk-in sellers, job-work, rent) and want a simple directory plus payment receipts you can share — without buying full Procurement.
Turn it on
Prerequisite: owner or a role with policy configure permission.
- Open Settings → Suppliers & payments.
- Tick Show Suppliers & Supplier pay in navigation.
- Click Save.
Suppliers and Supplier pay appear in the left sidebar. Turn the toggle off anytime to hide them; your data is kept.
What this is not
This is not full Procurement (purchase orders, GRN, vendor bills). Billing suppliers are lightweight. When you upgrade to Procurement, supplier records can sync into the fuller module.
Custom receipt fields
From the same settings page, open Manage receipt custom fields to add extra fields on supplier payment drafts (reference numbers, cost centres, and so on).
