A full name and email must be provided

Hi

I have just created a Supplier Record for Quick File Ltd (You) so that I can enter your invoice and pay it.

I typed in Quick File Ltd
Searched companies house
Clicked on 07109543
Clicked on Import to new supplier ascreen

Then clicked save and I get
“A full name and email must be provided to create a supplier contact record”

But I do not have a contact for Quick File (as is the cases for many companies).

What do I do to get the record to save?

Thx.

Regards

Michael

Hello @3Unique

In order to save a contact record an email must be supplied.

If the company house import adds a contact name and you don’t have an email you would need to remove the contact name to save the supplier record.

I have done this for you on the account.

Oh I see hopefully I will remember.

It raises a couple of questions:

  1. Why not allow saving of the supplier record without an email address?
  2. Or only allow CH import to import contact name if an email exists
  3. Or a better warning “As you have added a contact name or one has been imported from Companies House, you must also add an email address of remove the contact name.”

Just a thought.
