SedonaSetup - AP - 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 setup form.
The sample list of Vendor Types delivered with your database contains three “protected” vendor types.  Each of these has 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 invoiced to your customers.
  • Service Provider – Used for subcontractors your company uses to Service your customer systems on a Service/Inspection 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.
