QUESTION:
When I create an inventory item at the master store, I always assign a vendor to the item either manually or while working on the purchase order. However, my remote stores are not getting the vendor name linked to the new item. I have set the remote store to Receive Vendor Information.
ANSWER:
That is the first step, to make sure that the remote store is set to receive Vendor Information.
Most likely, the remote store's list of vendors is not exactly the same as the master store's list of vendors; they are out of sync. To resolve this, the master store should go to File: Multi-Store: Send Data Now and select "Send Vendor Information" to the remote store(s).
Once the remote store receives the Vendor Information, then everything will run smoothly.
NOTE: If the remote store has it's own private list of vendors, they will not get lost by receiving this data from the master store. PFW automatically renumbered local vendors to keep the separate from master store vendors.
