Vendor
v0.1.0An external vendor or supplier that a dealership transacts with — parts suppliers, sublet repair shops, marketing agencies, service providers, lenders, OEM entities, insurance carriers, transport carriers, and other counterparties. Vendors are the payee/supplier side of dealership accounts payable and procurement, complementing customer (accounts receivable) records. There is no ADF (Auto-lead Data Format) analog for vendors — ADF models lead/customer flows — so this entity draws instead on DMS/ERP accounts-payable master data and AutomotiveAPI supplier conventions to expose supplier master records to AI agents in a typed, portable form.

}Object shapes align with the AutomotiveAPI open data standard where sensible, and with the industry's ADF lead format — so a conformant server maps cleanly onto systems dealers already run.
