Vendors

Manage suppliers in Sayl Finance with GSTIN, state code and a default expense account for their bills.

Try it in the live demoFinance → Purchases & Expenses → Vendors

What it is for

Vendors are the suppliers you buy from - kept separate from your customer contacts so purchasing never mixes with sales.

How it works

  • A default expense account on the vendor is used for every bill line from them unless you pick another, which keeps recurring suppliers posting to the right place. Deactivate a vendor rather than deleting it - Show deactivated vendors brings them back into view.
