Which module can create a vendor?

In most enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, vendor creation is handled by the Vendor Master or Vendor Management module. This module is responsible for storing all vendor-related data such as company name, contact details, payment terms, bank information, and tax identifiers. For example, in SAP the Vendor Master resides in the Materials Management (MM) module, while in Oracle the Vendor Master is part of the Purchasing module. Microsoft Dynamics 365 uses the Vendor Master within the Accounts Payable module. The module typically provides interfaces for creating, updating, and deactivating vendor records, and it often integrates with other modules like Accounts Payable, Purchasing, and Finance to ensure consistent vendor data across the organization. By centralizing vendor information, the module helps maintain data integrity, supports automated procurement workflows, and facilitates reporting and compliance.
