I know I'm a little late on the response here, but my .02 on the vendor
look up thing...


I always keep a "Payables Aging" report (right off the business reports
menu) open. Every time I reload GNC, it updates and shows my current
payables. The I click the hot links for each vendors total. this shows a
detail report of the bills and payments. click on a bill (doesn't matter
which one) and that opens the invoice itself, drop down the Tools (?)
menu, process payment. done.

much easier than surfing through the vendor look-up screen, plus its
gives me loads of snapshot information everytime I look at it. helps
keep me up-to-date while I go along.
