Issam, You will need to create a new customer that represents the vendor. In Method, you can do this by going to Customers > Customers and Contacts List and clicking New Customer. - Adam

Hi sbradley, Glad you were able to figure this out. I might actually use this as a reference in the future. I can see it helping other users who may be similarly stuck. - Adam

Yep, that's the way. Thanks for listening to my internal rambling! lol

Ok now I think I'm starting to figure this out... as someone who lives in SQL and application development some of this wasn't making sense to me because it was sort of backwards, or rather not backwards but the terminology catered to, well, not someone who lives in SQL and application development It looks like what I should actually do ...

Ok so doing a SQL pull from within the field is only relevant if you trying to get numbers which is the reason I can't use that function to grab the RefNumber for an Invoice, PO or SO.
