Storing Supplier Account Numbers

When sending remittance advices to suppliers to advise them of payment, I like to include their account reference for us on the document. (I also wish our customers would do the same for us - it makes looking up accounts so much easier!)

I am currently using the BACS_REF field on the Bank details tab, which I then include on my report.
Am I using the correct field for this or is there another specific field that I should be using?

I use Sage 50 Accounts Professional 2010 (V16)

Thanks

Hi M

Not sure if it's correct, but that's where I used to store the account references also.

Take care.

BACS_REF is a field that may not correspond to the suppliers account number in Sage, it is typically the reference you quote them with the remittance normally your account number with them, not their account number in your Sage.

ACCOUNT_REF in the SUPPLIER table is their account reference with you.
