Default AP Discount (D=#Days or T=Date)

Duplicate Ref Number Notification

Lets you define whether to display a message when a reference number has already been used on a vendor charge, purchase order, or receiving document for the selected vendor. If the control is enabled and TireMaster detects a duplicate number, the message appears prior to completing the vendor charge or pricing the order.
