Purchases & suppliers

When you buy stock from a supplier, record it here. Ezvento adds the goods to your stock for you and keeps a record of what you owe each supplier.

Record a purchase (menu: Goods → "Purchases")

1. Tap New purchase and choose the supplier (or add a new one).
2. Add the items and quantities you bought, with their cost.
3. Save. Your stock goes up automatically — you don't have to add the stock separately.

Snap a photo instead of typing. On the purchase screen you can use the bill scanner — take a photo of the supplier's bill and Ezvento reads it and fills in the lines for you (right on your phone, nothing is sent anywhere). Always check the lines before you save.

A few things to know:

• Ezvento records purchase bills, not formal purchase orders. You enter the bill you received; there's no separate "order then receive" step for suppliers.
• You can attach the supplier's PDF bill to the record.
• Paying the supplier is tracked in your Khata ledger (People → EMI/Khata), not on the purchase screen — so money owed to suppliers sits alongside money customers owe you.
• If you bought an item you'd never purchased before, a helper lets you back-fill it so your records stay tidy.

Your suppliers (menu: Goods → "Vendors")

Keep a directory of your suppliers with:

• Name, phone, address.
• GSTIN (checked as you type) and PAN.
• Bank details and credit terms.
• Running totals: how much you've bought from them and how much you still owe.

There's no separate login or portal for your suppliers — this is your own private record.
