Professional Services Tool changing vendor settings.

Posted on by Community Member

Hi, I recently installed the PST and used it to change about 50 of my Vendor ID's.  It looked like it worked great but then I realized that it turned off the setting to email Purchase Orders to the vendors that I changed.  It also seems to have effected a form that we had hard coded for one of our vendors and deleted that code.  Is this normal?  I was under the impression that using the tool to change a vendor ID would only effect the vendor ID and everything else would remain in tact.  The CMV we use has no idea.

    I've seen PSTL run through and update non-core tables when updating vendors; from what I saw, it appears to look for tables with a VENDORID column.

    Hi Angela,

    PSTL is designed to modify or combine vendor IDs in core GP only.  Saying that I have several customizations and ISV products and have not run into this issue.

    It really boils down to how the code was written for the form you created.  I would recommend that you restore from the last good back up into a test environment, ensure that new vendors are setup correctly and then run the tool again to see if the same thing occurs.

    Hope this helps.
