Suppliers On Hold

Posted on by 20

Hi Everyone,

First ticket!

We have Suppliers that are no longer used but have transactions against them so they cannot be removed completely. As a business we would like them to be unlived completely so they can't be used for PO's, Payments, more invoices etc . We can put the supplier on "All" hold, however it is more often that not, somebody comes along removes the hold on an account we don't want to be re-opened again and the "All" hold on the suppler is also used for the purpose if we have issues with the supplier and we want to restrict paying them until the issue is sorted.

Is it possible to add a Supplier Hold option called "Inactive" that is effectively the same as "All" so we can put suppliers on hold, and then build a view so it hides everything that states "Inactive" whilst keeping the functionality of still using "All" for suppliers we have issues with.

Kind Regards,

Ryan

    Its if definitely possible to do this but it requires quite a bit of programming to implement a new blocked status through out the system.

    The blocked option on the vendor table is an extensible enum so it's easy to add new options to that field. But it still needs to be implemented around the system where the vendors are used.

    Maybe it is a good idea to check if some of the vendor ratings app on AppSource can help you achieve what you are looking for. There are quite a few of them available.

    Hi Amit,

    What I am looking for is for Suppliers/Vendors rather than Customers. If you could send a screenshot of where this would be found it would be appreciated .

    Kind Regards,

    Ryan

    Hi,

    Use Blocked field option in Customer Card for restricting Transaction in BC D365.
