Deleting a Vendor

A vendor is associated with an incoming order such as a stock receipt or a warehouse receiving order. You are able to delete a vendor only when it is not being referenced in an order. When you remove the vendor from the application, all vendor information, including the ship to address(es), if applicable, are removed. If you only want to delete a ship-to address from a vendor, you may delete the address individually, if it is not being referenced on an order.

Note: If a vendor is being used by the system, it cannot be deleted.
