Suppliers | Settings

In this article we take you step by step through the supplier settings of Robaws. Also take a look at the general settings: they contain a good many settings that affect several modules, and therefore the suppliers too.

Go to settings > suppliers to see the page with the supplier settings.

After you have made changes in the settings, it is important to click 'activate settings' at the bottom right to actually apply them within your Robaws environment.

Overview

Here you determine what the first tab in the overview of the suppliers looks like. What you change via the settings, you change for every user. In addition, every user can also choose to create their own overviews and set them up as they wish.

Setting	Explanation
Quick filters	Choose here which filters are ready by default in your overview.
System overview	Determine which columns you want in your overview, and in which order you want to see them.
Card info	Set the title, the subtitle and the fields of the card in the kanban and map views. A maximum of 8 fields in total.
Tags	Set up labels that appear on a card as soon as an item meets your condition. At most 10 per module.

Card info and tags apply to the whole environment. Columns are set separately.

Settings

Setting	Explanation
Default payment condition	Determine which payment condition is filled in by default for a new supplier.
Default Vat	Determine which VAT tariff is filled in by default for a new supplier.
Default sales vat tariff for 0%	Fallback VAT tariff in case no VAT tariff was filled in on the customer file by accident (important for the link with accounting software).

Extra fields

As with other modules in Robaws, you can also create extra fields of your choice on the supplier file.

Statuses

As with other modules in Robaws, you can also give a supplier a status of your choice. Determine the status you want here (careful, it is case-sensitive), give it the colour you want to see in the overview, and fill in the default status (which status a newly created supplier receives).

Email templates

As with other modules in Robaws, you can prepare email templates and then use them on the supplier file.
