Invoices and Statements

I'm new to quickbooks and still trying to figure out all the ins and outs.  I have a business I purchase supplies from in order to complete work.  I have an account with them and the account balance and I pay on it as I get paid from my customer.  Should I put all these invoices I receive from the supplier into bills and then record when I pay on it? Or just record statements I receive from them and then record payments I've made.  Also, I don't write the check from quickbooks I write them by hand and pay so how do I enter that without have to print a check?

The vendors invoice to you his customer, is your bill.

 

You can create a check in QB and just check it not to print, to record the check you write by hand.

 

For an adequate audit trail you enter the bills you receive, the statement is just a "roll up" and usually does not contain specifics of what you buy.
