Example (Adding a vendor to QuickBooks)

   
Vendor1.VendorName = "John Doe"
Vendor1.Add()
The component has a number of optional properties. The contact information is given in CompanyName, ContactName, AltContactName, Address, Fax, and Email. Various other information, such as VendorType and CreditLimit may be specified as well. See below for a complete listing.

If you send 1099-MISC tax forms to the Vendor, the EligibleFor1099 property should be set to true. In this case Address and TaxIdentity are required when calling Add.

Tracking Vendor Balances

The Vendor component may be used to track the outstanding balances of customers. After invoking Get, simply inspect the Balance property;. The OBJSEARCH component can be used to find unpaid and paid BILLs tied to this vendor.

When a vendor is added to QuickBooks, the CreditLimit may be set, and the OpeningBalance (special field) may be set, if there is one. Once a vendor is added to QuickBooks, there is no way to modify Balance directly! Instead, BILLs or VENDORCREDITs should be added referencing this vendor.
