What are Vendors?
Definition
To fulfil their requirement of fleet vehicles, client organisation needs suppliers who can provide them with these vehicles. These suppliers are referred to as Vendors. We have a separate master to maintain all the vendor details and it also a pre-requisite to add a vehicle in Vehicle master.
