Vendor type list & our Vermont trip

Sorry so late with this post for Monday. We got in late last night from our Vermont family reunion. I learned one very important thing from this trip, I am a city girl at heart. I could not live in that beautiful state because I was sooooo bored. There is nothing to do. Especially since it rained most of the time we were there. We did stop at this cemetery which was really interesting, since it has a person buried there that served at Gettysburg during the Civil War. Wow! That is an old cemetery.

Okay, now for my QuickBooks Tip of the day:

Using the Vendor Type List

There is a little used feature that you can find when you edit your Vendor information. You can add a "vendor type". Use the Vendor Type list to hold information about the types of vendors you pay, i.e., tax agency, utilities, etc. Use vendor types to categorize vendors in ways that are meaningful to your business. When you edit a vendor type, you can make it inactive, or you can choose to make that type a subtype of one of the other vendor types. This lets you group related vendor types in a nested hierarchy instead of displaying them all in a flat list.

It is a great way to organize your list, especially if you have many vendors, which will help you when searching for a vendor from the long list.
