When a supplier is disabled, no financial processing can be done against that specific supplier. Suppliers can be disabled company-wide or for specific communities only.

1. Disabling Suppliers from the Global Overview

Navigation: Global Overview > Finances > Supplier Management > Select Supplier

From the Supplier community drop-down menu, untick the necessary communities where this supplier should no longer be enabled. Alternatively, untick the All tick box to disable this supplier across all communities.

Update the Supplier, this supplier will now be disabled in the communities not selected from the dropdown menu and enabled in the communities selected. Should this Supplier be enabled again, the same process can be followed and the Supplier can be ticked again. 

If a Supplier is disabled, the following processing will not be possible:

1. Raising an Invoice against the relevant disabled supplier
2. Issuing a Debit note against that Supplier from finances - supplier debit notes
3. Posting journals against that disabled supplier's account
4. Running Rules or manually allocating a cashbook transaction against that specific Supplier

Users will still however be able to view the disabled Supplier's Supplier ledger, Supplier statement and view the Supplier on the Age analysis should the supplier still have a balance. 

2. Disabling Suppliers in the Community

Navigation: Community Level > Finances > Manange Supplier > Select Supplier

Should the supplier not be disabled, then click on the reverse icon to the right.
