It is important you add a contact as it is required if you wish to use purchase orders in Cloud Commerce Pro. Also, many suppliers assign account handlers to their customers to ensure they get a more personalised service. If this is the case for your supplier, you can enter contacts here.
Add the details for the contact into the form as shown above. If you are just wanting to add a generic contact for the supplier with no specific name attached, you can put "Administrator" in the name field.
Click "Save" to confirm your entries.
