Identifying Vendors

Vendors identify the source for inventoried products. By setting up vendors in your system, staff can create purchase orders, thereby allowing them to accept inventory into a warehouse.

To identify a vendor:

  1. Navigate to the Inventory App> Vendor.
  2. Click Add New Vendor.
  3. In the Add New Vendor form, begin typing the Vendor Name in the quick lookup field. If the vendor does not exist as an organization record, click the Add icon to create a new one.
  4. Click Save.
