Before you create a purchase order, ensure that the supplier is listed on the Inventory > Suppliers page. This allows you to assign the supplier while creating the purchase order.
However, if the supplier is not listed under Inventory > Suppliers, don't worry! You can easily add a new supplier directly from the purchase order page, streamlining the process.
To add a new supplier from the purchase order page, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to Inventory > Purchases > Add New.
2. In the Supplier box, enter the supplier's name. If the supplier is already available, you can simply select them from the dropdown menu. If they are not listed, look for the option to add a new supplier within the same dropdown.
3. If you choose to add a new supplier, a slider will appear. Here, you can enter the supplier’s information and save it to create a new supplier.
By following these steps, you can efficiently manage your suppliers and create purchase orders without unnecessary delays.
