    Insert a new supplier.

    Description

    Insert (add) a supplier to your existing relations. This encompasses all entities from which you receive invoices. For example, the tax authorities or a cleaning company. Also, for instance, the company from which you purchase office supplies.

    The 200 response contains a field named 'reference'. It is important to save this value since it is used as an identifier for all the other operations to recognise this specific entity.

    Use Case

    externalIdentifierThe unique identifier within the system of the requesting party. This identifier is not generated by the Bloxs system.
    phoneNumberPhone number of the supplier.
