Adding Vendor Information to Items

You use the I/C Vendor Details screen to add detailed information about each vendor and what they charge for a selected item. You can also assign a priority to each vendor of the item.

To add vendor information to items:

  1. Open Inventory Control > I/C Items and Price Lists > Vendor Details.
  2. In the Item Number fields, enter or select the item number for which you are adding vendor information.
  3. In the table, for each vendor:

    1. Click in the table, or press the Insert key to start a new line.
    2. If you use Sage 300 Accounts Payable, click the Finder Finder button in the Vendor Number column heading, and then select the vendor.

      If you do not use Accounts Payable, double-click in the Vendor Number field, then type the vendor number. Also, in the Vendor Name field, type the vendor name.

      Note:

      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.

    3. Enter the vendor contact, vendor item number, cost unit, vendor cost, and vendor currency.
  4. Click Save.
