How to Add and Manage Suppliers in QuickQore (and Make a Supplier Inactive)

Supplier Management Made Simple

In every business whether it’s a restaurant, retail store, franchise, or a small service firm  suppliers play a crucial role. But managing multiple vendors can get messy fast if you’re using spreadsheets or outdated software.

QuickQore simplifies the entire supplier management process by allowing you to:

  • Add suppliers in just a few clicks
  • Track expenses and invoices per vendor
  • Manage payments and outstanding balances
  • Deactivate suppliers you no longer work with without losing your data

This gives you clean, organized records that make bookkeeping and expense tracking more accurate, transparent, and audit-ready.

How to Add a Supplier in QuickQore

Adding a supplier is the first step toward smarter bookkeeping. Here’s how to do it:
  1. Log in to your QuickQore account.  Access your dashboard from anywhere using your secure cloud login.
  2. Go to the “Suppliers” section. This can be found in the left-hand menu under “Expenses” or “Vendors” (depending on your dashboard layout).
  3. Click “Add Supplier.”  A form will open where you can enter supplier details.
  4. Enter supplier information:
    • Supplier Name (required)
    • Business Address
    • Contact Number & Email
    • Tax ID / EIN (optional but recommended)
    • Payment Terms (Net 30, Net 45, etc.)
    • Notes or reference codes
  5. Save the supplier.  Once saved, this supplier will be visible in your list, ready to be used for invoices, bills, or expense entries.
Tip: Adding proper details like Tax ID or payment terms makes tax time smoother and helps keep your accounts payable accurate.

How to Manage and Edit Suppliers

Once your suppliers are in QuickQore, you can:

  • Edit details if contact or payment information changes
  • View expense history tied to that supplier
  • See outstanding balances or pending invoices
  • Filter suppliers by branch or franchise (if you’re managing multiple locations)
  • Export supplier reports for audits, financial reviews, or internal reporting

This eliminates the guesswork and gives you a clear picture of who you owe, when payments are due, and where your business expenses are going.

How to Make a Supplier Inactive (Without Deleting)

Sometimes you may stop working with a supplier — maybe they’ve been replaced, or your business has shifted. In traditional bookkeeping systems, removing that vendor often means losing historical data. QuickQore solves this elegantly.

Here’s how to make a supplier inactive:

  1. Go to the “Suppliers” section in your dashboard.
  2. Find the supplier you want to deactivate.
  3. Click “Edit” or “Manage.”
  4. Toggle or select the “Inactive” option.
  5. Confirm the action.

The supplier will be marked inactive, which means:

  • They won’t show up in your active supplier lists.
  • You can’t assign new invoices or bills to them.
  • All past invoices, payments, and expense records remain safe and accessible.

This ensures data integrity your reports and history stay intact while your active supplier list remains clean and up to date.
