Get started managing your vendor payment information. This guide will walk you through accessing the Vendors page in FISPAN Sync, setting default payment methods, and leveraging existing data imported from QuickBooks Online.

### Navigate to Vendors&#x20;

From anywhere in FISPAN Sync, you can navigate to the Vendors page by clicking o&#x6E;**&#x20;Vendors** in the navigation bar. The Vendors page is where you can manage payment information for each vendor.&#x20;

Click on the vendor you wish to view by hovering over the vendor or clicking the Eye icon.

The Payment Method pop-up will appear. This is where you will add and manage three types of vendor information: **Bank Accounts**, **Email Groups** and **Addresses**.&#x20;

**NOTE:&#x20;**&#x49;f you have addresses or emails stored in QuickBooks Online, they will be automatically imported. Imported accounts are marked with the ERP icon. The imported data cannot be edited within FISPAN Sync.&#x20;

### Setting Default Payment Method

In the Payment Method pop-up, you can configure two key settings:

- **Combine Multiple Bills:** Toggle this option on to consolidate several bills for the same vendor into a single payment. For example, processing five separate bills would be processed as one payment.
- **Select a Default Payment Method:&#x20;**&#x55;se the dropdown menu to choose a default payment method. This method will automatically populate for this vendor every time you access the Pay Bills page. You can always change the payment method on the Pay Bills page for one-off payments. Changing it there will not update the default setting for future bills.

### Validate Bank Account

The system will validate the account information to ensure the information you entered allows for specific payment types (e.g., it confirms a Routing Number is provided for an ACH payment).

If successful, you can toggle the payment method on/off and click **Save**.

If it fails, you must return to the account details, modify the information, and re-validate.
