Suppliers in Zeevou

Take control of your external operations with Zeevou’s Suppliers module. This comprehensive guide explains how to manage external service providers, set up vendor contacts for cost tracking, and navigate supplier features.

A Supplier in Zeevou represents any external business, vendor, or individual service provider you work with to keep your property management operations running efficiently (e.g., cleaners, handymen, utility providers, or laundry services).

By recording suppliers in Zeevou, you can maintain their contact details in one central location and link them directly to expenses for organized cost tracking and clear financial oversight.

Required Module & Access

To create, edit, and fully manage real suppliers, your account requires the Financial Reporting module.

If Financial Reporting is Not Active:

  • When you open the Suppliers page, the list will display sample data for preview purposes.

  • An Unlock Financial Reporting banner will appear at the top of the page and above the sample table.

    The Supplier screen shows a supplier table with one sample row for Sunset Villa Hosts and a Create a New Supplier button. Visible: Supplier, Dashboard, Create a New Supplier, Unlock Financial Reporting, The data displayed on this page is based on sample data., Name.

  • You can click on any sample row to preview the Supplier Details page.

  • Attempting to click Create a New Supplier or edit existing entries will open a locked preview prompting you to upgrade.

  • To unlock full functionality, click Unlock Financial Reporting on the banner to upgrade your plan.

Note: Once you purchase the Financial Reporting module, sample data will remain visible in your table until you add your first real supplier record.
