Description on new purchase form

Hello.  Is there a way to allocate a description to a particular Supplier.  For example, all my petrol purchases come from a couple of suppliers and it would be easier if I did not have to type in petrol every time I entered a new purchase for these suppliers.  Thank you

  • Hi Rosemary

     

    The only other suggestion I have is to save the purchase as a recurring transaction .

     

    This will save the description and when you use it you will just need to complete the invoice number date and amount

     

    Hope that solves this for you

    Hi

    In the supplier card 

     

    Go to buying Details tab

     

    You can enter a payment memo there , you can also set up an expense account associated with the supplier

     

    Hope that helps

      Hello,
       
      Thanks for your reply.  I do use the account number in the suppliers card, but even if I enter petrol in the payment memo, it does not come up in the description of a new purchase and I have to type it in every time.  I was hoping for a solution where I did not have to keep typing in the same thing in the description.
       
      Regards
