**If your customer and vendor are the same, in Swipe you can link them to manage ledgers efficiently:**

- Go to the [Vendors](https://app.getswipe.in/vendor) section on the web platform.
- Select the vendor you want to link with a customer and click **“Edit.”**
- Use the option **to link the customer to the vendor to consolidate ledgers.**
- This helps show transactions in a **single ledger instead of separate ones.**

### Why this matters:

- Simplifies account reconciliation.
- Prevents errors due to separate entries for the same entity.
- Saves time during audits or GST filing.
