Suppliers#
Who you buy from. Used for receipts and to make clear where to reorder.
Find them under Sklad → Dodavatelé.
Fields#
| Field | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Name | how you refer to the supplier |
| Code | a short designation for quick searching |
| E-mail and phone | the contact for orders |
| Lead time in days | how long goods take to arrive |
| Note | terms, contact person, minimum order |
| Active | a disabled supplier is not offered on new documents |
The lead time is the most useful field#
It tells you when to order so that goods do not run out.
Set the item minimums from it
A supplier with a 14-day lead time needs a higher minimum quantity than one who delivers overnight. Without that you run out exactly when demand is highest — see Stock items.
The lead time can also feed into the delivery estimate a customer sees for goods that are currently out of stock.
The default supplier on an item#
The stock item records who the item is usually bought from. It is then pre-filled on a receipt.
It is a default, not a restriction
Nothing stops you receiving the same goods from a different supplier — you simply pick another one on the receipt.
Disabling#
With the Aktivní toggle. The supplier stays, receipt history included; it is simply not offered on new documents.
Do not delete a supplier with history
Receipts refer to them. After deletion it would be impossible to trace where goods came from — which is exactly what you need when claiming against a supplier.
