    <informaltable frame="top">
    
    <tgroup cols="2">

    <row>
    
        <entry colname="col1" colsep="1" rowsep="1" valign="top">
    <para
    
            <para role="Table Cells">Title</para>
    
        </entry>
    
        <entry colname="col2" colsep="

    1" rowsep="1" valign="top">

            <listitem>
                <para">To add a new vendor ('parent Vendor record')</para>
            </listitem>
            <listitem>
                <para>To create a new division to an existing vendor ('child Vendor
                    record')</para>
            </listitem>
            <listitem>
                <para>To edit information about an existing vendor or division</para>
            </listitem>
        </itemizedlist>

To create steps/ a numerical list:

Code Block
<orderedlist numeration="arabic" spacing="normal">
    <listitem>
       <para>Search for 'In Process' purchase orders using the Order Holding Queue or document search and click the document ID to open it. </para>
    </listitem>
    <listitem>
        <para>Complete the standard tabs as necessary.</para>
    </listitem>
    <listitem>
        <para>Complete the <emphasis role="bold">Vendor</emphasis> and other </emphasis>tabs as necessary. To add information to these sections, click the   
             <emphasis role="bold">amend</emphasis> button at the bottom of the PO.</para>
