How to add, amend or delete a bank account on a supplier record?

This article covers managing bank accounts held on a supplier record – adding a new one, editing an existing one, removing one, or changing which account is set as Default. This is separate from setting up a legal entity's own bank account; for that, see 'How to set up a new bank account'.

Viewing a supplier's bank accounts

Open the supplier record and select the 'Bank Accounts' tab. This lists every bank account held for that supplier, showing sort code, account number, bank name and a tick against whichever account is currently set as Default. A supplier can hold more than one bank account at a time – this is common where a supplier pays into different accounts for different purposes.
