Go to Contacts, click New Contact, and select Vendor as the contact type. Fill in the vendor name, GSTIN, GST treatment (Registered Regular, Composition, Unregistered, or Overseas), billing address, payment terms, and currency. For vendors subject to TDS, toggle the TDS Applicable flag and Zoho Books will prompt for TDS section selection on every bill you raise against this vendor.
Each vendor record supports default payment terms, a default expense account for bills from that vendor, and a preferred currency for multi-currency purchases. You can store bank account details for direct NEFT or RTGS payments. Custom fields let you track vendor-specific data such as vendor code, contract expiry date, or approved product categories.
From a vendor record, you can see all purchase orders, bills, vendor credits, and payments made to that vendor. The vendor overview shows the total amount owed and the payment history, which is useful for negotiating early payment discounts or reviewing whether a vendor is being paid within the agreed terms.
