Vendor type

Hello all,
 
by doing some additional test and research I have come across this field on Vendor record:
 
 
It was not visible on Vendor record by default, however I can add it and it seems that all my vendors have default value.
Where is this set originally and what are its implications?

    Did you find any information on your Query? The Mexican Localization "Type of Vendor" is different from what is raised in this post. This seems to be related to UK Localization.
     
    I am looking for some info on this field. Can any one help please.
     
    Thanks,
    Samanth

    Hi,
    The following table lists the specific features that Microsoft delivers and supports as part of the Mexican localizations for past and present versions of our product. For more details, you can view this link: Scope of Mexican localization - Finance | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn


    This field is localized in Mexico, if you are sure you are not using Mexican related features, perhaps you should ask the technical team if this system has been customized, or take Layan's advice and check its location in VS.
    Best Regards,
    Hana

    Hello all,
     
    this is not the same as vendor type field for retail, as you can see clearly above, options are different. 
    I am not using any MEX features so I doubt it is the one from Hana response:
     
    Options there: 04: domestic vendor, 05: foreign vendor, or 15: domestic/global vendor.
    Options in my post: Blank, Domestic, Foreign, Individual.
     
    Kind regards,

    Hi,
     
    Technically, this data is set on a table called RetailVendTable and the field name is vendType and feeded into the Vendor master screen (Accounts Payable -> All vendors -> Vendors).
     
     
    Vendor Master Screen -> Retail tab -> Vendor Type.
     
     
    Hope this helps. Happy to answer questions, if any.

    Hi,
    In this document, it is mentioned that in the tax registration number for defining companies and vendor accounts in Mexico, the vendor type field is located in accounts payable>common>vendors>all vendors>"invoice and delivery" quick tab>diot field group. I compared it for you and found that this field is not available in other companies, and it is indeed a field unique to Mexico. You can refer to this document for information about this field:

    Best regards,
    Hana

    Hi 
    This field should be in RETAIL FastTab on the Vendor detail form. Could you please check. 
    Not sure, you are working in which localization. This functionality or field is only applicable to Mexico localization. 
    Hope, this helps.    :)
