FAQs: Displaying Vendors for All or Specific Cycles

By typing the exact vendor ID, you can display a single vendor record. If only part of the vendor ID is known, you may type one or more characters of the vendor ID; this may display a list of vendors, because the Vendor Search uses implied truncation. If only one match is found, the vendor record appears.

When using the Display Vendor (All Cycles) wizard, if you type ALL for vendor ID, then all vendors/cycles for the specified library will appear in the list. When using the Display Vendor (Specific Cycle) wizard, if you type ALL for vendor ID, then all vendors for the selected fiscal cycle and specified library will appear in the list.
