One – time vendor

Hi,


I gone through the Help of One time Vendor.

But I am not able to understand what is this meaning .

Please let me know the meaning of One time vendor .

From help : -
Microsoft Dynamics AX automatically copies information when you create a one-time supplier in the Vendors form. When you create a purchase order for a one-time supplier in the Vendors form, the application automatically creates a one-time vendor Except for the vendor number, the one-time supplier will inherit all base information from the vendor number specified in this field. The one-time vendor number sequence must be specified in the Number sequences form. If you do not use one-time suppliers, you can leave the default vendor number blank.


Please explain about that one.

Define a vendor record as a one time vendor. Setup the onetime vendor settings in the parameter

Create a new purchase order and tick the one time vendor, this will copy in all of the settings from the defined vendor and create a new record flagged as a one time vendor.

The idea is for ad hoc purchases where you do not have a vendor set you can define them as a one time supplier and use the generic settings of the default you have supplied. Think of it as a short cut vendor!
