VENDOR USER-DEFINED INFO

Use this screen to assign values to the user-defined fields for each vendor in the General Ledger.  You must have already established the labels for these user-defined fields in the Vendor User-Defined Labels screen in Costpoint Accounts Payable.

Entering information in this screen is optional. However, if you enter labels in the various tables, the corresponding data (date, number, or text) is required. Similarly, in order to enter data, a valid label is required. You can use Lookup, Find, or Query to help you select valid user-defined labels.

If you are using user-defined information, set up this screen for each new vendor and maintain it whenever you need to change vendor user-defined data.
