Vendor Source Setup Tab
For vendors that only allow certain ship methods to be used with certain shipper #s, this tab allows that relationship to be set up.
All settings on this tab are optional.
If a relationship is not set up for a particular vendor in this tab, then both the 'SHIPPING METHOD' drop-down and the 'SHIPPER #' button will display when setting up that vendor in the STORE SOURCE SETUP screen, and any Ship Method and any Shipper # that have been established under the 'SHIP METHOD SETUP' and 'SHIPPER # SETUP' tabs can be selected.
If a relationship is set up for a particular vendor in this tab, then only a single 'SHIP METHOD'/'SHIPPER #' drop-down will display when setting up that vendor in the STORE SOURCE SETUP screen. Shelf Sourcing and Customer Sourcing will restrict the selections to the combinations of Ship Method/ Shipper #s that have been established in the 'VENDOR SOURCE SETUP' tab.
An unlimited number of Ship Method/Shipper # combinations may be set up for each vendor.
Once one or more Ship Method/Shipper # combinations are saved for a particular vendor in the 'VENDOR SOURCE SETUP' tab, only those records are valid Ship Method/Shipper # combinations for that vendor.
