Enter the sort name for this vendor, up to 15 characters. This field automatically defaults to the first 15 characters of the vendor’s name entered above. Default may be overridden.

Sort name must be unique. If you enter a sort name that is assigned to an existing vendor, a message displays indicating that the sort name is already in use (includes the vendor number) and you will be required to enter a different name. It is recommended that the last characters be changed to make the sort name unique.
