Vendor Information

A vendor could be a vending station, payment agency or master station.

You must create a person for each of your vendors. Information about the vendor may include names, an address, phone numbers, etc.

Any other miscellaneous information about the vendor can be stored as characteristics on the person.

Hierarchical relationships between vendors can be established through characteristics. For instance, a vending station's person record may contain a foreign key characteristic that points to the master station that the vending station reports to.
