Vendors are providers of products and services from other manufacturers or service providers. Provide the required information for each vendor created within the system and then proceed to the Setup tab. If Purchase Orders are included as an option in the installation, the vendor file will be referenced during the creation of purchase orders.
In the newest version, you can assign Contacts and Activity to each vendor as you would to a customer in your Customer File. Refer to the following pages to learn how to set up Contacts and use the Activity button.
