    • In the search field above the grid, enter one or more characters from the vendor number or name to display only vendors that contain those characters.
    • Click the column label for the VENDOR NAME column in the lookup dialog box to sort the list in the reverse order. (A sort icon ( or ) displays next to the current sort column.) You can also click the column label for any of the other columns to sort based on values in those columns.
