Use this tab to change the vendor number for an existing firm from the Firms hub.
This applies for firms that are entered in the Firms hub with a firm type that is Vendor. Firm type is entered on the Summary pane in the Firms hub. This utility changes the vendor number for a firm, not the firm ID.
After the vendor number is changed, the new vendor number is updated in the Firms hub. All associated fields and existing accounts payable transactions are also updated with the new vendor number.
