The supplier enquiry screen in FastBase is the easiest way to enquire on suppliers to your organisation. This screen gives you a number of options when searching for a particular supplier:

Supplier Number:
This field allows you to enter a part or specific number (up to 20 characters including spaces) of a supplier. If you enter only a part of the number, suppliers begining with that number will be listed. If you enter a specific number, the supplier's details will be brought up on the screen instantly.

Supplier Name:
This field allows you to enter a part or specific name of a supplier. The supplier name/s that begin with name specified in your search criteria will be displayed.

Keyword Search:
This field searches for suppliers based on Supplier Name or Contact Name. Any suppliers with the entered keywords in either of the two fields (supplier name or contact name) will be displayed.

Address Search:
This field searches for suppliers based on Supplier Address. Entering a part of an address will list all suppliers that match any of the address details specified in your search criteria.

Phone Number Search:
This field searches for suppliers based on Supplier Phone Number. Entering a part of a phone number, will list all suppliers that match the phone number specified in your search criteria.
