Third parties

The directory

The third-party directory describes who each counterpart is: their commercial role, their nature, their state in your relationship and their tax identity. Everything starts here.

Customer, supplier, or both

Two independent flags set a third party's role: “Customer” and “Supplier”. You can turn on either, or both, on the same record. That is what keeps a single directory while letting you easily filter your customers on one side and your suppliers on the other, without ever duplicating a record.

Third-party type

The type states the nature of the entity and adapts the record's labels.

  • Person — an individual or a sole trader.
  • Company — an incorporated business. This is the default type.
  • Institution — a public administration or a public-sector body.

Status

The status reflects the state of the relationship and lets you archive without deleting.

  • Active — the relationship is ongoing.
  • Prospect — a contact not yet turned into an established relationship.
  • Inactive — a dormant relationship, kept for reference.
  • Archived — removed from current lists, but never lost.

Tax and legal identity (Morocco)

Moroccan identifiers are entered once on the record and reused on the documents that need them.

  • ICE

    Common Business Identifier (Identifiant Commun de l'Entreprise).

  • IF

    Tax Identifier (Identifiant Fiscal).

  • TP

    Professional Tax (Taxe Professionnelle).

  • RC

    Trade Register (Registre de Commerce).

  • CNSS

    Social security affiliation number.

  • CIN

    National Identity Card, for an individual third party.

Internal code

You can give each third party a free internal code — for example the one used in your accounting software. It is optional and does not need to be unique; it only helps you find and reconcile a third party using your own conventions.
