Vendors

The Vendors module allows you to build and maintain a list of suppliers. Even if you don't wish to use the purchasing module you might still wish to maintain a list of vendors because the price of each item in your inventory is tied to the supplier of that item. Each item can also have a number of suppliers each with a different price. Inventory Manager stores the cost price of each item in your inventory alongside the suppliers meaning that even if you don't wish to maintain any suppliers at all then it might still be a good idea to create at least one Dummy supplier so that you can allocate cost prices to items in your inventory.
	Open the Addresses Sub Menu and select 'Suppliers'. The vendor's details window appears. A new vendor is added by typing the name/address details in the text boxes across the top of the window.

Enter all the address details across the top row and press the 'Enter' key on your keyboard to insert the new record. What you can't see on this example because it's way off screen to the right is a 'Code' field where you enter an abbreviated/short name for the supplier. You allocate a short code to your suppliers and that's what will appear on parts/inventory lists in places where there isn't enough space to print the whole supplier's name.
