Vendors

Before you can order from a vendor, you must create a vendor record. This record lets you keep information about the vendor, such as the vendor’s name and address, order, claim, and contract information. Horizon uses this information to perform a variety of tasks, including calculating discounts, generating claims, and processing purchase orders.

Any additions or changes you make to vendor records will also be reflected in the Serials module, since Acquisitions and Serials use the same Vendor view.

You can create a vendor record from a scratch or copy an existing record and change it as necessary. You can also edit existing records individually or in a batch. (For information on entering a vendor contract/account on the vendor record, see Vendor Contracts/Accounts.)

If you want to use electronic orders, responses, or invoices with a vendor, you must be sure you have correctly set up your vendor records to work with those electronic messages. (For more information, see Electronic Orders, Responses, and Invoices.)
