Supplier codes and names identify a supplier (vendor).
Suppliers are defined and maintained in Supplier Maintenance.
Supplier codes and names are required for processing purchase orders, processing purchase order receipts, entering accounts payable vouchers, generating accounts payable checks, and for querying and generating various reports.
If a Supplier Code or Supplier Name field is available in a window, you can select a supplier code or name by clicking the Lookup button next to the field, and then double-clicking a supplier.
For more information on setting up suppliers, see the Supplier Setup Diagram
