Miscellaneous Vendors
Miscellaneous vendor records are used for creating and paying invoices to one-time vendors. To set up a miscellaneous vendor, select Vendor Records from the Accounts Payable menu, and click on Add. Enter the name as “Miscellaneous” and check the Miscellaneous box.
After the invoice is paid, the name and address fields on the miscellaneous vendor record will revert to that which was entered when the miscellaneous vendor was created. You may create as many miscellaneous vendor records as you need.
Changing the name on a miscellaneous vendor, either from Vendor Records or Accounts Payable Invoice records, will change that vendor's name on any unpaid invoices. Paid and posted invoices to this vendor will retain the name used when posting. If you need to enter invoices to different miscellaneous vendors and have outstanding invoices to miscellaneous vendors, use separate miscellaneous vendor records for each invoice. If you need to enter multiple invoices to the same miscellaneous vendor, use the same miscellaneous vendor record for that vendor's invoices.
