# Supplier Settings
In **Supplier Settings**, you can configure default payment terms for invoices from your suppliers to support consistent and efficient purchase order payment processes across your business. You can also create custom fields to capture and track additional supplier information relevant to your operational, financial, or reporting requirements, helping maintain accurate and organised supplier records within Supply’d.
Supplier settings you can manage are:
* [#invoice-settings](#invoice-settings "mention")
* [#custom-fields](#custom-fields "mention")

### Invoice Settings
Set default settings for invoices created by Supply'd.
**Default Payment Term**
Enter the default payment terms to apply to supplier purchase orders. This can be overridden at a supplier level.
Enter the number of days, then choose one of the following options:
* **Days:** The invoice is due a set number of days after the invoice date. For example, “30 Days” means payment is due 30 days from when the invoice is issued.
* **Days EOM (End of Month):** The invoice is due a set number of days after the end of the invoice month. For example, “15 Days EOM” means payment is due 15 days after the last day of the month in which the invoice was issued.
* **Days EOW (End of Week)**: The invoice is due a set number of days after the end of the invoice week (usually Sunday or the chosen week end). For example, “10 Days EOW” means payment is due 10 days after the end of that week.
* **Pre-paid**: Payment is required before the goods or services are delivered, ie. the invoice must be paid upfront.
**Pre-Paid Handled Automatically**
Select whether or not orders on pre-paid terms are automatically switched to/from status.
{% hint style="success" %}
Orders that require payment before processing will have the status beside them. If enabled, the order status will automatically change to once payment is received, helping streamline order tracking and ensuring orders are not processed before payment is made.
{% endhint %}
**Tax on Credit Card Fees**
Select the default tax rates (eg. GST) applied to credit card fees charged from your suppliers.
{% hint style="success" %}
The **Credit Card Tax** field can be preset for expense reconciliations from custom suppliers that include credit card fees. For ERP suppliers, these values will automatically be populated from the supplier’s settings.
{% endhint %}
***
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Custom Fields
Add custom fields to **Suppliers** to store and manage specific information that is unique to your business.
To add a custom field, click the button. A **Custom Field** form will appear.
**Field Name**
Enter a name for the field. This will be displayed as the label on the supplier screen for this field.
**Field Type**
Select the type of field.
**Default Text**
The default text to pre-fill this field. Leave blank to not pre-fill this field.
**Required**
Select whether or not the field is required, ie. the field must be completed.
Repeat the steps above for any other custom fields you would like to create.
{% hint style="success" %}
To remove a custom field, click the **X** beside the field name.
{% endhint %}
