Purchases Easy Setup Assistant > Build your supplier list > To enter new supplier information in MYOB Accounting Plus

Use these instructions to enter information for your suppliers if you haven't been tracking this information in another software programme and don't plan to import your supplier information. Repeat these steps for each of your suppliers.

  1. Click the New button to display the Profile tab on the Card Information window.
  2. Use the Designation list to indicate whether this supplier is an individual person or a company.
  3. Enter the supplier's name. If the supplier is an individual, enter both a first name and a last name for the person.
  4. You can assign a card ID to the supplier record if you like. Card IDs can be used to customise information on reports and to distinguish between suppliers who have the same name. The ID you assign to each supplier must be unique; that is, the same ID can't be used for more than one card.
  5. Enter contact information for the supplier, including the supplier's address, phone and fax numbers, an email address and a World Wide Web URL. You can enter information for up to five addresses for each supplier.
  6. Enter a name or title you wish to use in the greeting of a personalised letter for the person or company whose card you're viewing. For example, if you want to greet a supplier named Kara Watanabe as "Kara", enter Kara in this field. The personalised letters you create for Kara Watanabe will begin with "Dear Kara".
  7. If you're entering information about a business and there's a particular person you work with there, enter that person's name in the Contact field.
  8. Click the Buying Details tab.
  9. Most of the entries in the Buying Details view are filled in for you automatically, using the entries you made in earlier steps in the Easy Setup Assistant. Make any needed changes, and enter a tax ID number.
  10. Review the fields in the Card Details view. The Card Details tab allows you to include a picture of the supplier in your records, write extended notes, assign identifiers to the supplier and enter other information you deem important using custom fields and lists.
  11. When you're satisfied with your entries for this supplier, click OK.
