By Creating a new Creditor/Supplier the user creates an account on the GoodX System. With the account, a user can document goods and services that the Practice receives from the Creditor. An organisation, business, or individual of a legal type who has given a Practice product, service, or financial loan is referred to as a Creditor. Once a Creditor has delivered the goods/service, the payment is expected at an agreed-upon date.
