Description

A Vendor Credit is a credit amount that is created for a particular Vendor in Accounts Payable. A Vendor Credit is then later applied directly against a Bill in the Pay Bills tab of the Cash Management module. This is different from an AP Credit, which is created as its own document for a particular Vendor, and that is never applied to a particular Bill.
