In Supplier Cards, Lightyear can import the Country Codes from your Accountancy Software. There are instances where some Accountancy Software don't store the Country Code, or the Country Code they store is different from Lightyear, e.g. GBR vs GB, USA vs US.
For more information on this, and the information that can be imported, go to your
Accountancy Software section and find the
Connecting to... article.
Changing Existing Supplier Country Codes
In the case where your Accountancy Software stores a different Country Code than what Lightyear is expecting, e.g. GBR vs GB, you can set these in bulk by using the global selector within the Country Code column.
. Setting New Supplier Country Codes
Where your Accountancy Software doesn't require a Country Code to create a supplier, these will be imported into Lightyear as blank, which can cause issues when creating a Lightyear Supplier as we don't know the relevant currency and information surrounding tax.
To fix this in Lightyear, you can go through each supplier individually and select the Country Code on the line, or use the global selector on the first line to change all Suppliers on the page in bulk.
Once these have been changed, click Save Changes
.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Many Suppliers Can I Edit At Once?
Using the Global Selector on the first line, you can edit up to 50 suppliers at once. This is the full page of suppliers you are viewing.
I'm Seeing a Leave Page? Modal. What Does This Mean?
After you've set your Country Codes on the page, you will need to Save Changes
in the bottom right before you can move onto the next page.
Why Can't I See The Country Code Column?
Only the Accountancy Software's connected via an API will see this feature, i.e. MYOB, Xero, Sage Intacct, Sage Business Cloud, QuickBooks Online, NetSuite. Those using a CSV import/export will not have the ability to set this.
