It's so frustrating to go looking for a customer when you know they are on the system but you just can't find them. However, if you look in All Contacts, they are there.
I know that Xero is meant to mark them as a Customer if a sale transaction is entered against that account or as a Supplier if a bill is allocated to them.
However, we have had instances of customers with no bills against their record - only sales invoices but they still can't be found in customers. -

When we had Xero set up we had contacts appear as suppliers when they are customers and visa versa. I need to be able to edit this to integrate with other software we use.

Apparently, many moons ago they used to be separate, so this was a backward step for many reasons.
Contact details are completely different if you have a customer is also a supplier, which happens to our business enough for it to be a real issue.
Credit limits are all now only shown in the sales section. For us it is critical to see if we are close to our supplier credit limits for our larger products.
Please separate them. -

We should be able to choose if a contact is a customer or a vendor.
I had a customer pop up as a vendor for some reason. I asked support for assistance to remove them as a vendor because they shouldn’t be there and was told it’s impossible. WTAF. 😳
They told me I should add it as a product suggestion. So… here I am.
Please add two checkboxes that we can choose if someone is a customer or a vendor. Give us the power to choose what someone is, rather than having the system decide for us. Because if the system gets it wrong, there’s nothing we can do about it.

Please allow this function. I have a client using DEXT>Approval Max>XERO integration. Its not integrating nicely as the API can not determine if the contact is a supplier.
