# Basic definition

To add a new supplier in ERPAG, go to 

```
Purchasing > Suppliers > Add new
```

This will open a new window where you will be able to add all your suppliers basic information, such as name and email, but also categories, tax location, terms of payment, currency etc.

Here you can also import your suppliers price list, because in ERPAG you have an option to purchase the same item from different suppliers.                                                                                                   Now, when you create a purchase order for that supplier, you will be offered the prices from his price list.

In the 'contact person' section, you can list all your contacts for the particular suppliers.

Once you are finished, just save the changes.

The second way to add a supplier is when creating a purchase order, through the quick add option.

To create a purchase order, go to:

```
Purchasing > Purchase orders > Create
```

Once you start creating a purchase order, in the supplier section, you have a drop-down menu to choose the supplier. Once you click on it, you will see the 'quick add' button.

The quick add option will allow you to enter the name, key and email of the supplier, so you can continue creating the purchase order.

Of course, you can always find the supplier on the suppliers list and add additional information.
