What does ‘Preferred Vendor’ mean?

A ‘preferred vendor’ refers to the vendor you (the business owner), would like to purchase an item from. Zoho Books will show you the vendors you purchase from regularly under a separate filter. When the quantity of an item drops below the reorder point, you can order the items from your preferred vendors.

Here’s how this works,

• Navigate to the Contacts tab and filter your contact list with Vendors -> Reorder Items option.
• You will be able to view the filtered vendors who are associated with the items whose quantity has fallen below the re-order point.
• Now select the vendor you wish to order your items from, and click on Order Now in order to stock up.
