Large maintenance organizations deal with many suppliers. There are suppliers for parts, equipment, services, rentals, office supplies, and more. The Suppliers form (SMSUPP) is the primary form for setting up a supplier network. Within this form, establish a list of suppliers, create a catalog of parts provided by specific suppliers, list contacts for suppliers, and use a listing of commodities provided by suppliers.
