No because customer is a debit side entery while supplier is credit side entery.

Not at all when vendor has to have a credit entry ledger, and the customer a debit entry ledger

Although, one company functions as your customer as well as vendor, you can not maintain one ledger for it. Accordingly, I recommend to you to maintain to ledger as customer and vendor.

Yes Put a Credit Memo of expense of that customer then it can be knockoff.

YOU CANNOT

A Vendor and a Customer are treated as two separate persons even though they are one identifiable person . A vendor is balance is accounts payable (creditor) and a customer balance is accounts receivable. this will enable a clear balance sheet items and not the net of the two.
