Accounts Payable-> Master Files-> Vendor Groups-> Vendor Group Maintenance: Prior to this release, Vendor Groups was referred to as Vendor Types. The functionality of Vendor Groups throughout Steel Plus is the same.
You will see throughout Steel Plus, any report that contains Vendor Type in the selection criteria, that prompt is now referred to as Vendor Group.
Accounts Payable-> Master Files-> Vendors-> Vendor Maintenance: The prompt on the Vendor Maintenance screen formerly referred to as Vendor Type is now Vendor Group and has been moved to the left-hand column of the screen. Previously, you could only assign one Vendor Type to a vendor. Now, you may have up to five Vendor Groups per vendor. If a vendor has only one assigned group, that group will appear on the maintenance screen. If the vendor has more than one assigned group, the prompt will display MULTIPLE. You can maintain the list of assigned groups using the Shift-F5 key.
Accounts Payable-> Master Files-> Vendors-> Vendor Maintenance: Previous to this release, the F7 key was used to allow up to twenty Vendor Groups to be associated with a vendor. The F7 pop up window has been relabeled Vendor Item Categories and expanded to show the category description for each category assigned to the vendor.
