User-Defined Info Subtask

Use this subtask of the Manage Vendors screen to assign values to the user-defined fields for each vendor in the General Ledger.

The labels for these user-defined fields must already be established on the Manage Vendor User-Defined Labels screen.

Entering information in this screen is optional. However, if you enter labels in the various tables, the corresponding data (date, value, or text) is required. Similarly, in order to enter data, a valid label is required.

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