Before you beginThis guide follows Accounting and Bookkeeping module version 1.4.5. The required access is Accounting Vendor: View. A related screen can remain hidden when an optional module is inactive, a source record is in an ineligible status, the selected account is inactive or the user is not an assigned approver.

What this feature does

Review supplier details, bills, payments and account position from the vendor profile. It forms part of Britixo Enterprise CRM's Accounting & Bookkeeping module and uses the module's permission-aware controller, status and mapping flow rather than a generic spreadsheet process.

How the module flow works

The module vendor view uses tabs and related tables. It gives a supplier-centred view, while the General Ledger and Accounts Payable reports provide account-centred views.

A payment allocation correction can change which bills appear outstanding without changing the bank amount.

When the Purchase module is active, related vendor history may be presented by that module instead.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Open the vendor profile.
  2. Verify contact and address details.
  3. Review outstanding and paid bills.
  4. Open payment or check records.
  5. Compare the balance with Accounts Payable ageing.
  6. Investigate duplicates or unapplied payments.
  7. Update only current supplier details through the edit form.

What happens after completion

After the action is saved, Britixo keeps the Accounting record connected to its source and updates the visible status or ledger data supported by this workflow. Review the saved result rather than relying only on a success message. Where the action posts accounting data, total debits and credits must balance and the accounts must match the approved mapping or manual selection.

  • Open the saved record and confirm its final status.
  • Review the source reference and every debit and credit line where ledger data was created.
  • Use the relevant register, ageing, reconciliation or report to verify the wider effect.

Controls, checks and common mistakes

  • Do not rely only on profile totals for external reporting.
  • Protect supplier information.
  • Investigate credit balances.
  • Check payment instructions before a new payment.
  • Use the least destructive correction available and record the reason for material changes.
  • Do not bypass a permission, approval or closed-period control by changing unrelated data.
Accounting and data safetyDeletion, reset, void, refund, mapping, journal and reconciliation actions can change financial history. Use approved access, retain supporting evidence and validate the result in the General Ledger or relevant control report.
