Tab allows you to enter User Defined Fields within Vendors Entry.  These fields can be used to track any additional information about the Vendor record that you require.  For example, you may want to track whether the vendor is a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE).  You simply need to rename the User Defined field to "Disadvantaged Business" and enter your information.  Double click on the field caption to rename the field or use User Defined Field setup to rename and setup a list of values for the field. When you rename a User Defined field, you change the caption for that field on ALL vendor records, in other words it applies to all records not just the one you are on.  The text you enter in the associated field will be unique for each  record.

FIELDS:

9 Inactive Fields: Enter up to 50 characters of label/caption for the field.

Note: The information you enter is plain text – similar to what you might type in the Notes Tab.  However, you cannot enter as much info as you would in the Notes Tab, you have a maximum of 50 characters in the UDF.

1.     In the Vendors Entry UDF Tab double-click on the word “Inactive”.

2.     The “Set user define Caption” window opens.  Enter the label/caption for the field.  An example might be “Disadvantaged Business" if you would like this field to track which vendors are DBE.

           NOTE:  The caption is limited to 25 characters, including spaces between words.
