Vendors

Vendors are the places you buy from: warehouse clubs like Sam's Club and Costco, Amazon, a grocery store or a distributor. Open them in Sales & Inventory → Purchasing → Vendors. Vendors are part of Inventory, an add-on.

Where do you buy?

Tap the stores you use under Where do you buy?: Sam's Club, Costco, Amazon, Walmart, Restaurant Depot or H-E-B. Each becomes a vendor, with a tick. A distributor and Somewhere else open a form for any other vendor: fill in its name and click Add vendor.

Vendors are also added for you when someone types a new vendor name on a product, a pack, a receipt or an order. Orders and products keep pointing at the same vendor when you rename it.
