The most common use of vendors is for reporting. You can group users together and then report on the work done by a particular vendor. WorldServer provides several reports for this purpose.
Vendors are associated with cost models, and this association can be used to assign a cost model for scoping a project.
Vendors must be defined to be listed and selected.

You can select to have the WorldServer User Interface display in English or Japanese.
|
| Regional Settings:
|
Drop-down list
|
You can select regional settings to use when interacting with dates or numbers in WorldServer. Dates and numbers will then display in the format of that region.
This setting has no relationship to the “User Interface Display Language” you choose. These are likely to be different because WorldServer currently supports only two User Interface languages, but many regional settings.
In addition, there is no relationship between your operating system settings and your regional settings in WorldServer. For example, you might have your Windows operating system regional settings set to German, but this has no affect on your WorldServer regional settings.
For details, see the "Regional Settings" topic.
