Vendors

Adding Vendors in IndusTrack allows you to easily prepare purchase orders and keep track of your supplies and/or products from the system.

To set up your suppliers go to Settings > Inventory > Vendors.

This page makes creating, viewing and managing vendors a lot easier.

Vendors’ List

The page defaults to the Vendors’ List, presented in table format. Contact information about your suppliers is shown in this table.

The Vendors’ List has 3 columns.

  • Name – Refers to the vendor’s name or company name.
  • Street Address – This refers to your vendor’s main business address.
  • Phone – This refers to your vendor’s direct phone line.

Filter Bar

Key in the information you are looking for on the Filter bar and matching information will populate the vendors’ table.  

Sort the Vendors’ list

Click on the column header to sort the vendors’ list according to the selected category.

Actions Button

Use this button to add or create new vendor records. Vendor records are also deleted using this button.

List Per Page

At the bottom of the table, select the number of vendors to be displayed per page. Options to choose from are 15, 25, and 50. Use the Previous and Next buttons to move from one page to another (if there is more than one page).

Add a New Vendor

To create a vendor profile, go to Settings > Inventory > Vendors.

Before creating a new Vendor, do a search first to determine if their profile still does not exist. This is to avoid creating multiple profiles for a single vendor. Either scroll down the Vendors list or use the Filter or Sort functions.

Go to the Actions button and select + Add a New Vendor.

Fill in the item details on the Add Vendor window. Fields with (*) are required.
