Suppliers

Last updated:

Translated from the Italian guide. Narciso itself is in Italian, so the names of buttons, menus and fields are shown exactly as they appear on screen, with a translation in brackets where it helps.

The Fornitori (Suppliers) page gathers everything about those who sell goods and services to the business: supplier companies, individual contacts (agents, sales contacts, but also people without a company such as the owner of the premises) and the order history of the orders placed. It opens from Scartoffie ▸ Fornitori.

The three tabs#

At the top there are three tabs, each one a third of the width. The active one is white with an orange icon.

Tab What it contains Entry
Aziende (Companies) (lorry) The supplier companies, with tax, payment and contact details Supplier companies
Persone Fisiche (Individuals) (person) The contacts of the companies and the people without a company Individual suppliers
Storico ordini (Order history) (clock) The purchases already made, read-only Order history
  • The browser tab title changes according to the open tab: «Aziende fornitrici & Partner commerciali — Narciso», «Persone fisiche & Contatti diretti — Narciso», «Storico ordini & Acquisti fornitori — Narciso».
  • The chosen tab stays in the page address: when you reload you go back to the same tab. If the address contains a tab that does not exist, Aziende opens.
  • When you switch tabs, the search, selection and sorting of the table you leave are reset. What is remembered, for your own user, is the width, order and visibility of the columns and the font size.
  • The general behaviour of tables (selection, search, Copia (Copy) button, Tool panel, export) is described in Data tables.

Who can do what#

Action Titolare (owner) Responsabile (manager) Operatore (operator)
Open the page and see companies, people and history Yes Yes Yes
Create, edit or delete a company; import it from documents; upload its logo Yes Yes No
Add a contact person to a company Yes Yes No
Create a person without a company (independent) Yes Yes Yes
Import contact people from documents Yes Yes Yes

An Operatore who tries a reserved action receives the notice «Operazione riservata a Titolare o Responsabile.» (Operation reserved for Titolare or Responsabile.) and nothing changes.

System supplier#

The list of companies also includes the system supplier: a company created by the program to record purchases made inside Narciso, that is, top-ups of artificial intelligence credits and prints ordered from Designer. It cannot be deleted and its contact person cannot be changed. In Order history it appears as «Fornitore di Sistema» (System Supplier).

What supplier data is used for#

  • Cassa ▸ Paga (Pay). When you register an order to a supplier, the Cassa uses the data of the company and of the chosen person: payment method, IBAN, account holder and BIC that appear on the receipt, and the maximum number of days of deferral, which decides whether you can pay at a later time. The procedure is in Paying suppliers.
  • Magazzino (Stock). Each product can be linked to its suppliers; from the product's record you open the company's record to edit it (see Products and Stock).
  • Contabilità (Accounting). Registered orders appear in Cash book; those to be paid later also in Payment schedule.

What is not on this page#

This page has no supplier price lists, ratings, purchasing targets or a separate list of «agenti di commercio» (sales agents): the people you see in the Persone Fisiche tab are the contacts described in Individual suppliers.
