You can create an account from an existing supplier account. The generated new account holds the trading details of the original account. You can also generate the account to hold copies of memos and attachments from the existing supplier account.
This is useful if your supplier also has offices abroad and so does business with you using a number of currencies. You can then create a number of accounts for the supplier for each currency that they use.
Once you have duplicated the account, you can see the Linked Supplier on the General tab of the Account Enquiry screen.
Note: Transactions associated with the original account are not copied to the new account.
Open: Purchase Ledger > Purchase Accounts > Enter New Account.
