Suppliers provide goods or services to your business. A supplier can be either a Wholesaler or a Contractor.

View a list of Suppliers

To view a list of suppliers, go to Menu > Manage > Suppliers

From this view you can:

  • Switch between Wholesalers or Contractors

  • Search for an existing supplier

    Type some of the name of the supplier to easily filter the list based on your search entry.

  • Use search filters to filter the list of suppliers

    You can filter the list based on supplier type, nearest GPS location, or nearest address. Nearest GPS location is a handy way to find the closest supplier if you urgently need materials.

  • Select a supplier to view their details, create a stock purchase order, or view linked locations.

Suppliers can only be created in AroFlo Office and cannot be created in Field.

View or create notes about the supplier. This may include any history with the supplier.

The More tab is in the form of a pop-up and it contains the supplier's Locations. The Locations icon will have a counter to indicate how many Locations there are for this supplier. Click the icon to open the list of locations. Select a location  to view their details or create a stock purchase order for this supplier and location.
