Vendor Locations

One or many vendor locations are defined for each vendor to distinguish between multiple vendor sites. Each location provides more detailed information about the vendor site such as address, capabilities, payment details, contacts, and so on.

For example, it may be valuable to understand which location is shipping the goods that you have ordered from the vendor. Also, some vendors might ship from one site, but your payment terms are set with an alternate site. Capabilities would provide information such as when one location offers pick up at that location whereas another location may not.

When a vendor has multiple locations, alternate locations are listed in the Vendor Locations zone on the vendor record.
