Option 8Inactive Vendor Report

Use this function to obtain a list of Inactive Vendors. Vendors are determined as inactive based on either their last purchase date or last payment date. The following processing steps accomplish this job.

  1. Step 1In preparation for performing a sort/selection process on the Vendors information, this step provides you with a default sequencing of data records by Vendor and name, giving additional sort order choice by Vendor Type, Last Purchase and Last Payment Date, with the option to change modifiable parameters at run time. Selection of data records is provided by Vendor, Name, Vendor Type, Last Purchase and Last Payment Date, with the option to enter user-specified comparisons at run time.
  2. Step 2This disposition type is used for all standard Accounts Payable reports.
  3. Step 3According to previously specified criteria, this step actually performs the desired selection and/or sorting process.
  4. Step 4In order to print the Inactive Vendor Report, this step formats the Vendors information. The following data items are shown; Vendor, Name, Phone, Telefax Number, Contact, Last Purchase and Last Payment Date.
