Customer Refund on an Account Overpayment





To Create a new Supplier (Vendor) Name and Address Record you can hit the “F2” key or click on the “Add Rec” button.


A message will pop up asking you if you wish to Add a New Record and you must answer by clicking “Yes” or “No”. The cursor will then move to the box beside “01) Code” and you will enter an identifier code for this Supplier (Vendor).  It is recommended that you use the first 4 characters of the Supplier’s (Vendor’s) name and add the digits “01” immediately behind that abbreviation. If you get a duplicate of the first 4 characters then add 1 to the two digit value on the back of the abbreviation.



Go to “File Maintenance” (1) on the Main Menu.
