PO-L  Assign Vendors to Items

Purpose of program

Use this program to assign vendors and vendor item numbers to items.

The vendors assigned in this program can be used for reference purposes or for approved vendors.  For more information on how to use approved vendors, see How to Use Approved Vendors and Manufacturers.
