Supplier Creation in Oracle R12-Oracle Account Payables 

Let us now understand who is a Supplier with the help of a simple example:

We consider us as a business, who sells dry fruits on a large scale, now all the Vendors who intend to consume dry fruits would be contacting us. So with this perspective we become the Supplier to all the vendors and these vendors are our Customers.

Now to automate this process at the Vendors perspective the Supplier information are to be recorded so for this we have a suppliers window to record information about individuals and companies that provides goods or services from whom a vendor purchases those goods and services in return for payment. The information about the Supplier, Supplier Site, Supplier Contacts & Banks are recorded and these are created as one time setups and are not the daily activities which are later updated when ever required.
