I suggest you watch the video. It’s easier to understand if you are a visual/audio learner. The content below is the same as the video. It’s for those who learn by reading.

Inactivating a Vendor

Before you memorize a journal entry, you need to create one first. Here are the steps to follow when making one:

• Step 1: Go to the Vendors
• Step 2: Click on the Show Inactives check box.
• Step 3: Under the Inactive column, click on the check box of the chosen vendor.
• Step 4: Click the Submit button.

• Step 5: Uncheck the Show Inactives check box. This will not show the vendor because you can only see the active vendors on the list.

Reactivating a Vendor

If you want to reactivate a vendor, you need to undo the previous steps.

• Step 1: Check Show Inactives check box.
• Step 2: Uncheck Inactive check box.
• Step 3: Click the Submit button.

• Step 4: Check the Vendors list. You should now see the latest vendor ID created back on top.

Editing a Vendor

Now, let’s go through the steps in editing vendor information.

• Step 1: Click on Edit.

• Step 2: In the Vendor page, change the Custom Form to Standard Vendor Form.

• Step 3: Start editing the Vendor information.

• Step 4: To enter the address, click on the Address subtab, then click Edit.

There are two ways in entering the address:

1. Input through the system and it will list the address on the right side, then click OK.
2. Edit the address manually by checking Override and do the editing in the box, then click OK.

• Step 5: After you save the Address, make sure to add the Label.

• Step 6: Click on Save after completing your edit. A confirmation message will appear in the top left corner of the page.
