Vendor

If you entered an existing PO number, the vendor for that purchase order displays.

If you created a new purchase order by leaving the PO field blank, select or enter a vendor.

Note:  If you leave the vendor field blank, the system assigns the item's first-ranked item/vendor cross-reference. If no item/vendor cross-reference exists, the system creates the PO with no vendor assigned.
Note:  If the Show in Drop-Down Lists check box on the Vendors form is cleared for a vendor, it will not display in this field. However, you may manually enter the vendor without causing an error.
