About Vendor Care

From this one screen (see Figure 8-6), the user can search for any vendor, view statistics and vendor information, update vendors, and view and create all vendor transactions: Purchase Quotes, Purchase Receipts and Credits, Vendor RMAs, and Disbursements. Vendor incidents and e-mail can also be created from this powerful screen.
