Entering Additional Vendor Information

Vendor records may require more detailed information than can be provided on the Vendor Maintenance screen, so the hot keys on the Vendor Additional Info screen provide more options.

To enter additional vendor information:

From the Files menu, select Vendor to display the Vendor Maintenance screen.
In the Vendor/New field, enter a Vendor ID to display the vendor record.
Use the Add'l Data hot key to display the hot keys on the Additional Info screen.
Use the following hot keys as needed:

Hot Key	Use to...
Misc Vend Info I and II	apply overrides for a vendor, provide tax numbers, enter a cage code, and more.
Drop Point	determine which branch serves as the default drop point if your company uses central purchasing.
Activity Trigger	assign triggers to activities such as order entry, shipment confirmation, or purchase order entry for a fax, email, or EDI transmission.
Addl Address	add additional information to the vendor's address.
Reminder Notes	create a reminder note that displays when you enter this vendor on a screen, such as Purchase Order Entry Header.
Brch Ovrds	set defaults at the vendor level to override settings at the branch or territory level.
A/P Summary	view a summary of a pay-to vendor's account balances, without calling up each account separately.
Addl Keywords	add words to the search index for the system to use when searching for a vendor.
Check Info	set up parameters for a vendor for outsourcing and printing accounts payable checks.
Entity Relations	display a complete list of a pay-to vendor's ship-from records. If you use this hot key from a ship-from only vendor record, it displays the pay-to vendor record.
Work Order Proc	create a vendor record for each of your internal and external service-work vendors.
E-mail Print Styles	override a vendor's default e-mail print styles, originally set in the E-mail Attachment Settings control maintenance.
Tax Information	enter a vendor's 1099 tax information, if the vendor is not including tax in the price they charge you. You are legally required to track the total dollar amount you have paid to the vendor for tax purposes.
Job Management	enter a specific product to serve as a template for pricing for price line and buy line purposes when creating orders and reports in Eclipse Job Management. The product you enter here overrides the Default Product Management setting in the Job Management Admin control maintenance record.
