Purchasing Module - Set Purchase Requisitions to Always sort by Vendor Name?

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

My institution currently utilizes Business Portal to handle our purchasing requisitions. Due to a number of circumstances, we must upgrade to GP2016, losing the Business Portal functionality.  The upgrade process and setup for replacing the business portal has fallen to me, even though my familiarity with GP is little to none.

While I've sorted through the upgrade process just fine, one of the hangups I am seeing is when submitting a purchasing requisition. Most of our users are used to looking up a Vendor via their name, and do not know the Vendor ID. By default, GP has it to search for a vendor via ID. I know how to set the default search to be Vendor Name for an individual user, but is there a way to by default have it set to that for all users, both existing and future?
