                              Vendor Table

The Vendor Table file contains relationship records of old, non-Lawson vendor
numbers and Lawson vendor numbers. The system automatically creates these
relationship records during the non-Lawson to Lawson vendor conversion process
for vendor groups using automatic vendor numbering.
