0:00 The next step of stock structure is suppliers. So we're going to go to stock supplies and departments, and we're going to go to the suppliers tab.
0:15 To add our first supplier, we're going to click on add. The first field is supplier name, and that's all you need to get started.
0:27 All the other fields are optional. So you've got the address, your account number with the supplier. The supplier abbreviation can appear on labels.
0:37 If you print labels, it can only hold three characters, so abbreviate your names appropriately. The EDI abbreviation refers to electronic invoicing through DDO or DD2's. Not CSVs, which are electronic invoice formats.
0:53 If you do have an EDI supplier, check out our advice sheets on that supplier or contact support. More contact details and settings regarding the supplier.
1:07 This setting only applies to news agencies and those supplier settings are specifically in our advice sheets. So check those out.
1:15 This tick box here is rather important. What you need to do is you need to grab your invoice from the supplier and check the cost price on the invoice for each item and see if the cost price that they're supplying you with is an inclusive GST price or an exclusive GST price.
1:30 I'm not asking if it's taxable or tax free, but whether that figure of $10 has GST or it's $10 with GST, if it's with the GST, we leave that ticked.
1:42 If they're giving you a $10 ex GST price, you untick the box and that comes into receiving stock later. Okay.
1:51 The only other setting on here that you really need to know about is possibly the default department when adding stock.
1:55 So if this supplier always provides stock that I'm going to always add to a certain department, I would select that department here.
2:03 If this stock is gonna go across multiple departments, I would not select anything. In this case; I'm gonna select cards next.
2:15 The last page again is on EDI settings. This applies mainly to news agency suppliers, or if you do have a supplier, again, with EDI settings, check out the advice sheet on that supplier.
2:24 If not, contact, support
2:27 And finish. And there's your first supplier.
