Can there be a workflow for approving a Vendor record (not a transaction)?

Yes, either through a workflow or through scripting.

How would you use a workflow? When you create an SetFieldValue action for a workflow state, Approval Status is not a field you can set a value for… Would you hijack the Opportunity ‘Status’ field values?

I’d use a custom field.

we had the same issue, no matter what but vendor will show up in all lists irrespective of approved or not. one quick workaround that we are using is to set the vendor status to inactive on creation and custom field status to pending approval, once approved then the vendor status is set to active and it becomes available. hope this helps.
