Use the Maintain Vendors window to enter, change, and store information about the companies and people from whom you purchase goods and services. You can use this window to add a vendor, change existing vendor information, or delete a vendor if no transactions have been entered for the vendor.
Setting
up a new vendor
First, you should set up your default or common information in Maintain Vendor Defaults. This automates part of the process of setting up individual vendors. Then, you can set up individual vendors, including beginning balances.
Reviewing
a vendor's status
The History tab of the Maintain Vendors window contains useful information about the vendor, including the last invoice or payment dates and amounts.
What
are customizable fields and how can I use them?
Customizable fields let you track information that Sage 50 normally doesn't track. You set up the fields and enter the data based on specific information that your business requires.
Help
with specific fields or folders
If you need help with a specific field or a folder on the Maintain Vendors window, click on the area below. (Header fields are those fields above the folders on the window—ID, Name, and Inactive.)
Add an Attachment
You can attach files, such as Word or Excel documents, to a vendor record.
