Preparing to Send via Easylink – Vendor Easylink Number

Before creating a want list or purchase order to send to a vendor via Easylink, you must make sure the vendor has an Easylink number specified in your vendor file, and that the Easylink number is attached to the Textbook address card. If the vendor specified on the want list or purchase order does not have an Easylink number in your vendor file, you will not be able to send messages to them via Easylink.
To Add a Vendor Easylink number:

1. Access the Vendor Maintenance module.
2. Use the Quick Search to locate the vendor.
3. The vendor address card will be displayed on the screen.
   
4. Make sure you are accessing the Textbook system address card. To do this, be sure the field 'System' is set to 'Textbooks'.
   
5. Once you have selected the Textbook system address card, view the 'Order' address card at the bottom of the screen.
   
6. In the Easylink field, enter the Easylink number of the vendor.
