Options for vendor groups

These vendor group options are available.

To	Use
Define additional fields to store vendor information	Vendor Group User Fields (AP00.2) to define up to six additional fields to store vendor information. These fields are available to you when you define your vendors. You can use the first field to perform inquiries and run reports. As an example, you might want to track old vendor numbers, or vendors that are W9 compliant or minority-owned.
Copy a vendor group	Vendor Group Copy (AP100) to copy hold codes, vendors, vendor classes, and more from one vendor group to another. You might want to use this feature during initial setup if you have more than one company and more than one vendor group. Set up all of the vendors that those companies have in common. Then copy the vendor group and use it as a starting point, adding on the unique vendors required by each company.
