Vendor Types

Vendor Types provide a means to classify your Vendors, and may be used for reporting purposes.  Each Vendor must be assigned a Vendor Type on the Vendor record.

The sample list of Vendor Types delivered with your database contains three “protected” vendor types.  Each of these has a special functionality within the software application and cannot be deleted or modified.

Parts Supplier – Used to identify Vendors from whom your company purchases inventory parts

Sales Tax Agency – Used only for municipalities to whom you remit sales tax that was collected from your customers.

Service Provider – Used for subcontractors your company uses to Service your customer systems on a service ticket.  If a Vendor is created and the vendor type of Service Provider is selected, an entry is also made into the Service Company setup table.  This vendor type is not to be used for subcontractors used for installation jobs.
