City of Asheville - Vendor Self Service

Registration instructions available here.

The City of Asheville is registering vendors utilizing a Vendor Self Service (VSS) program which allows you, as a vendor, to manage your own account information, browse purchase orders, invoices, and 1099 data; and if desired, manage banking information for Electronic Fund Transfers (EFT). It also allows you to select commodities for the types of items that your company offers. All new vendors conducting business with the City should register as a vendor through VSS.


REGISTERED Vendors: If you are a vendor whose company has already registered with the City, you will still need to create a NEW Vendor Self Service (VSS) User account by following the link below. That account can then be linked to your vendor record on file. Please see registration instructions for details here.

NEW Vendors: A W-9 is required for registration. You may access this form through the IRS website.

Optional: If you would like to receive direct deposit payments (EFT), you will need to provide the following information during registration:

  • Bank Name
  • Account Number
  • Routing Number
  • Account Type (checking or savings)
  • A canceled check MUST be uploaded to receive direct deposit payments (EFT)

Begin by creating a new Vendor Self Service (VSS) user at the link below.
