 Vendors without Numbers

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

You don't have to assign vendor numbers to everyone.  You may have vendors from which you only order once or very infrequently.  In that case, just enter their name and addresses on the purchase order form.  No number is needed.

If one of your infrequent vendors later buys from you again, you won't have to re-type their address.  Just click the "L" button or place your cursor in the "Vendor" blank of the purchase order and press Ctrl+L or double-click the mouse.  A list of all past vendors will come up.  Press the first letter of the vendor's name and you can move through the list until you find it.  For more information, Pop-up List of Past Vendors.

Once you find the vendor, press ENTER on your keyboard (or click OK) and the program will automatically enter the address and other information directly on the purchase order. Two other ways of bringing up a list of past vendors is to place your cursor in the "Vendor" blank, select EDIT from the Menu Bar and choose PASTE FROM LIST, or to right click your mouse and select "Vendor or Stock List" from the Speed Menu.

You'll want to use one of the above methods for entering Vendor Names, particularly those without numbers.  That way the name and address will be spelled the same, and you'll be able to use the search and filter processes effectively.
