Training Tidbit: What are the vendor description shortcuts?

Do you have the Vendor Description field completed for your vendors in the Vendor File?  If so, when you enter invoices, purchase orders, and requisitions, you can utilize the following shortcuts:

  • When entering the summary description in the Invoice, Purchase Order, or Requisition Description field located in the Header Information section, enter a V to use the description from the Vendor File.
  • When entering the description for the line item in the Invoice, Purchase Order, or Requisition Detail Description field located in the Detail Information section, enter a V to use the description from the Vendor File.

Note:  You are also able to enter the following into the Invoice, Purchase Order, or Requisition Detail Description field within the Detail Information section:  C to use the name of the account from the Chart of Accounts File as the description; or H to use the description entered in the Header Information section.
