[GNC] Can I make a customer a vendor too, without manual reentry?

Yes, customers can be vendors, and the reverse, but no, those two 
'accounts' are not linked.

There are ways to accomplish certain AP/AR cross-overs, but I think the 
Business Logic doesn't allow them to be easily mixed. (as of v4.8) 
You'll have to do some manual transactions, likely with some contra 
accounts, to clean things up.

Can you provide a particular scenario? We may be able to help with 
example transactions to accomplish the task.

Regards,
Adrien
