Results
The initial view (default) is a flattened view by Vendor record. This data is grouped in ascending order by Vendor Code, Vendor Name, Type Code, Type Name, Currency Code, Currency Name, Parent Code, Parent Name, Tax Code, Tax Name, and Status.
For each returned result record, the inquiry provides a Related Items menu where users can open the Vendor input document or access the Insurance Summary inquiry. Please note that the Open Insurance Summary Inquiry option is only enabled if the Vendor has an active insurance record.
To limit the number of records displayed, the inquiry only displays the Primary Address, Primary Payment Routing, and Primary Tax ID values for each vendor. A binary indicator will denote whether there are multiple Payment Routings or Tax ID's for a given vendor.
