Outcome of setting this control record	Creates the list of available types you can assign to a vendor in the Vendor Type field in Vendor Maintenance.
Default Value(s)	Blank
Example(s)	Typical vendor types include: Inventory - A company from which your company buys products for resale. Expense - A company from which your company buys a commodity, such as electricity, gas, telephone service, or security services. 1099 - A person hired to do work for your company.

Additional Information	You can also use vendor types to select items for the A/P Preview Queue and the Print Checks program. If your company uses the Print AD Checks program, list AD as one of the valid vendor types. Assign that vendor type in the Vendor Type field in the Vendor Maintenance screen for every AD vendor to include when you run the Print AD Checks program.

Vendor Maintenance Authorization Levels

Use this record to limit users' ability to edit fields and access menus or hot keys in Vendor Maintenance. More:

Options	For each field in Vendor Maintenance, indicate any authorization level between 0 to 99, needed to edit the information for that field.
Outcome of setting this control record	The setting in this record and the level assigned in the VENDOR.MAINT.LEVEL authorization key for a user determines whether a user can edit a field in Vendor Maintenance.
Default Value(s)	20
Example(s)	For example, you may want to restrict who can edit the Default Ship Via or the Default Pay Terms, but you want to allow anyone to update the contact phone numbers. Set the Default Ship Via and Default Pay Terms field to 50, but set the Phones field to 20.
Dependencies	Use the VENDOR.MAINT.LEVEL authorization key to assign users an authorization level for each field. Users with a setting in the VENDOR.MAINT.LEVEL authorization key that is equal to or higher than the one indicated for the field in this control record can edit the field. In the previous example, assign users a level of 20 to the Phones field to edit the phone numbers for a vendor. However, set the authorization level to less than 50 for the Default Ship Via and Default Pay Terms fields so the user cannot edit those fields.
Action if set to Null	Same as if set to 20.
Additional Information	None
