    Hi, 
     
    Yes, you can hide specific vendors from non-admin users using Security Filters in Business Central.

    Steps

    1. Go to Permission Sets.
    2. Select or create a permission set for restricted users.
    3. On the Permissions page, find Vendor (TableData).
    4. In the Security Filter column, add a filter like: 
       No. <> SPECIAL*

    (Assuming your special vendors have a number series starting with SPECIAL).
    1. Assign this permission set to the users who should have restricted access.
    Important: If users have multiple permission sets granting access to Vendor table, the least restrictive filter applies.

    If Standard Functionality Is Not Enough

    • Add a custom field like Special Vendor (Boolean) on Vendor table.
    • Modify the Vendor List page using AL to hide records where Special Vendor = TRUE for non-admin users.
    Mark this as verify if it helps

    Hi,
    Other way as well as per customizations, you need to provide a boolean field in User setup , and make this true against that particular user and make customize vendor page according to that user and field.
     
    Thanks

    Standard way : Use Security Filters to restrict vendor records so only admins can see the special vendors. You have to create multiple permission sets for this.

    Customization : If security filters don’t fully meet your needs, you can add a field like Special Vendor and customize the Vendor List page to hide those records for non-admin users.
