AP Vendor Name desired, but Vendor ID is always displayed.

As a new user of AX one thing I am not grasping is why the Vendor account number ex (V000141) always displays EVERYWHERE in AX when the Vendor name is what is relevant. I have tried personalize repeatedly but it is never an option.

    In Standard AX along with Vendor Id you can find the Name when focus is in Vendor Id field and you houver your mouse over vendor Id you get tooltip which displays the name, please verify

    If this is not enough and places where you are looking its not showing the you need to have small customization

    Create/find a display method on form datasource table, which can display the vendor name

    Show this display method on the form as per your requirement.
