Use the Vendors page to manage vendors and view the products you've associated with your vendors.

When you're managing your store's inventory, it's important that every product you plan to reorder is associated with its respective Vendor. This is very helpful when you are using the Low Inventory Report, as the system will allow you to see products you've set up with Low Inventory Alerts and are low in inventory.

This article will show you how to manage the Vendor page, so read on to see everything it provides you with!

 

Managing Vendors on the Vendors Page

The image below shows an example of the Vendors page. Here's how to access and use this page:

  1. From the main menu, click on Inventory.
  2. Click on Vendors.
  3. If you want to create a new Vendor, click on the New button on the top of the page. Then move to the Vendors Editor panel in step 6.
  4. If you're instead looking for a specific existing Vendor, use the Search bar by typing in the Vendor Name.
  5. Click on the Vendor you want to highlight it.
  6. In the Vendors Editor area, enter the Vendor Name* (If you're editing an existing Vendor, the Vendors Editor area will pre-populate). The other fields in the Editor are optional, but we recommend filling out for reference when creating Purchase Orders.
  7. Save changes by clicking on the Save button in the upper right.

You can also view the Vendor's Product List and Payment History under the Vendors Editor panel:
