Vendor Account appearing without Name unknown

Dear 

in the Sales Tax authority form, (relevant to my issue) i am trying to select the Vendor Account , so i am clicking on the drop down list and i can see that there are many vendors code with name <unknown> ; now if i go the my Account payable >>ALL Vendors , i can see i have only 3 vendors , (which i created manually)

Important

please note that i did import the setup of this company (through definition groups) from another environment, so is definitely the cause; 

any idea how i can clean this up ?

i went to see my VENDTABLE and i can see those dirty master records from a previous installation , but i have no idea why they came without names. 

if i want to clean this up properly how many tables should i look into?

    Hello,

    Go to the VendTable in the AutoLookup, try to remove the fields and add them again.

    Try to sync the Data base too.

    Thanks!

    You are probably missing records in the DirPartyTable table for the vendors you imported. The VendTable.Party field should contain a recid that points to a DirPartyTable record. Note that DirPartyTable is part of a table hierarchy, so the record pointed to might actually be in the DirOrganization or DirPerson tables.
