Vendor Attributes

Vendor Attributes can be setup to auto set the Vendor name based on the imported Payee value.

  • Create a vendor attribute named CCVendorCode
  • Add the attribute to the vendor and specify a value. Values can be set up as follows:
    • A value without any * characters is an exact match.  
      • For example, if the credit card transaction payee is “ABC Acme”, setting an attribute value “ABC Acme” on a vendor will auto set that vendor’s name on the transaction.
    • A value with a * character as a prefix and and a suffix  is a contains match.  
      • For example, if the credit card transaction payee is “ABC Acme”, setting an attribute value “*ABC*” on a vendor will auto set that vendor’s name on any credit card transactions that contain the phrase “ABC”.
    • A value with a * character as a prefix is an “Ends With” match.  (i.e. *Acme is “Ends with” Acme)
    • A value with a * character as a suffix is a “Starts With” match.  (i.e. Acme* is “Starts with” Acme)
  • Multiple terms can also be specified, separated by a space.  An example would be “*Acme* *ABC*”   This would match the vendor name to any payee’s that contain “Acme” and “ABC”.
  • Note the attribute can be added multiple times to the same vendor, allowing different pattern matches to match to the vendor.
