What is Vendor Data?

While Vendor Work Packages are used to track vendor supplied documentation, Vendor Data is used to track vendor supplied equipment.

It's worth noting that the Vendor Data Entity in O3 is meant to track data for vendor supplied equipment. For availability and physical delivery, we recommend using the Mechanical Equipment and Requisitions Entities.
