Hi

There is field in the Control View of vendor Master > Refernce data subscreen - Field name is Industry- where you make entry .

Industry key

An industry is a distinct group of companies with the same basic business activity. The industry key is used in selecting data for evaluations (for example, a vendor master data list). You can specify industries such as trade, banking, service, manufacturing, health care, public service, media and so on.

The industry field belongs to the general data area of customer and vendor master records.

You can define industry key based on your requirement. and can also fetch report based on these keys.

Hi,

You may find another option to identify your vendor as (Mfr,Dealer,Distributor,etc...) you like in the partner function while creating vendor master.

Account group plays a vital role for number range and selection of screens.
