Haha. And they’re your customers. I feel so triggered right now… /begin rant/ VendorPay doesn’t summarize the total payment is a bug? Nope, working as intended. Put a vendor “on hold” still permits all new invoices to go into the

I’ve eliminated TV from my life for over 20 years. I feel social media has taken some of that space back. It’s very compelling to watch videos about things you like—hobbies, arts, culture—and from people you know personally. I’m not sure ho
