Vendor Details Form

Use this form to:

• Link up to nine vendors to each item in your inventory.

• Assign a priority (type) to the vendors who supply you with each item.

• Enter detailed information about each vendor and their costs for the item.

To use the Vendor Details form

1. Enter an item number or choose the number from the Finder.

2. If vendors are already attached to the item, press the Insert key to add a new one.

3. Each new vendor will automatically be assigned the next highest type. However, you may change the vendor type by selecting one from the list. (Use the down arrow in the Vendor Type field.) You cannot assign the same type to two vendors of the same item.

4. Enter a number into the Vendor Number field or select one using the Finder. If the number you enter corresponds to an existing vendor, its name will appear in the Vendor Name field. If the number does not appear in the Finder list, it is a new vendor and you will have to manually enter its name in the appropriate field.

5. Enter the other vendor details: vendor contact, vendor item number, and vendor cost.

6. Either select the cost unit and vendor currency using the Finders or manually enter the entries.
