When you post an AP Shipment receipt for the product, Accredo adds the supplier to the Supplier grid for the product, updates the Supplier Cost, Vendor code, Additional Cost, Date of Last Receipt, Supplier Cost Date, Exchange Rate and Supplier Cost Bs for the supplier.

If you specify a default supplier, you can select or filter products on lookups and reports, and generate Purchase Orders containing only products where the supplier is the default supplier. To specify a default supplier on the Product tab, select the supplier Creditor code. The supplier details will be added to the Supplier grid as the default supplier the first time you post an AP Shipment receipt for this product. Or on the Suppliers/Bar Codes tab, select the supplier, click Set as Default SetAsDefault (Ctrl+B), click again to turn off the default status. The default supplier details will appear in bold on the grid, and their Creditor code will be selected in the Creditor field on the Product tab.
