    Hi RSOLIMAN,

    Have you read thru the PSTL manual ? the Vendor combiner/modifier tool was originally part of the PSTL library and there are various ways of doing changes.. I'd read thru the chapter topic to make sure my input file looks correct.

    I am not sure. I would expect "Destination" vendor already exists, not source.

    If you are trying to MODIFY, then the Source vendor ID should exist, but the Destination should not; if you are combining then both should already exist.

    The Source vendor ID already exists.

    The error is the source vendor ID already exists.
