Add Vendor Information to Items
Overview
The Vendor Details form lets you add detailed information about each vendor and their costs for the item. It also lets you assign a priority to the vendors.
To add vendor information to items:
-
Open Inventory Control > I/C Items and Price Lists > Vendor Details.
Click here for help on Vendor Information fields.
-
Enter or select the item number for which you want to add vendor information.
-
Tab to the entry grid and, if necessary, press the Insert key to start a new line.
If you have Sage ERP Accpac Accounts Payable, click the Finder button in the Vendor Number column heading and select the vendor that you are adding.
You can also add a new vendor here and manually enter the Vendor name.
If you do not have Accounts Payable, double-click the Vendor Number field to enter the code for your vendor.
The first vendor that you add is automatically assigned "Vendor 1." Each vendor that you add is automatically assigned the next highest number, but you can change the vendor type by selecting one from the list.
You cannot assign the same vendor type to two different vendors for the same item.
-
Enter the other vendor details: vendor contact, vendor item number, cost unit, vendor cost, and vendor currency (if you use multicurrency accounting).
Either select the cost unit and vendor currency using the Finders or manually enter the entries.
-
Click the Save button to save the vendor information.
