Warm greetings, knapiks. I know how important it is to get the list of active vendors this year. 

 

Please know that there's no direct report that we can run to view list of vendor who are active and inactive this year. As a workaround, you can run the vendor contact list report and exclude the inactive or deleted ones. 

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to Reports, then type in the Vendor Contact List.
  2. Click Customize and press Filter.
  3. In the Deleted dropdown, select Not Deleted
  4. Hit Run report.

Meanwhile if you wish to generate a report that includes all vendor's transactions, here's how:

 

  1. Go to Reports, then type in the Transaction List by Vendor.
  2. Click Switch to classic view.
  3. Set the Report period to This year.
  4. Hit Run report.



On the other hand, to view and sort the list of active vendors on the expenses page, we can exclude the inactive ones. 

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to Expenses, then select Vendors.
  2. Hover to the Gear icon and untick the Include inactive
  3. Click the Print icon if you wish to have a copy of it.
     

I've included a screenshot for reference.

 

Moreover, you have the option to memorize the reports you've customized. This way, you won't have to do the customization process again. To learn more about what you can generate, check out this article: Reports included in your subscription.

 

You can always reach out by tapping the reply button below. I'd be available to assist if you need further help managing your vendors.

/Thank you for replying. 

 

Unfortunately both ways are giving me all the vendors ever used and not the ones from this year.  There were tons of them when I took over the books and I need a way to just see the ones used in the last year.  To make them inactive is way too time consuming.

You should be able to go to vendor report detail than change the dates to this year
