NOTE
If you think you may work with the supplier again in the future, but do not want the supplier record to appear in current reports, you can close the supplier rather than use the delete option. You can then open the record again in the future. This will also close all the supplier's activities. You cannot close a supplier if they have any unpaid bills/invoices. The Close Supplier option is available on the Supplier page Task Bar.
