SUPPLIER FAMILIES


Although this module is not often used, you can choose to divide your suppliers in different families. An example can be if you would like to seperate local suppliers from foreign suppliers. Another option could be to seperate suppliers according to different categories of stock which you purchase. You could also seperate suppliers which sell you a service (Expenses) from those where you purchase stock (Purchase Orders).

The advantage with Supplier Families is that if you need, you can extract data the way you need it. For example, you might want to know how much purchases you had from foreign suppliers, but not from local suppliers.

You do not have to decide now whether you want to divide your suppliers in families. Just attach all your suppliers to the default family. Then, if you choose to divide suppliers in various families later on, you may.
