How is the ABN in the vendor master validated?
*This post is locked for comments
As far as I know, there is a validation that the number should be 11 digits long, and the number should be correct. The correctness itself should be validated in accordance with Australian Taxation Office rules, it is a certain logic (deduct 1 from the first digit; then, sum up the digits, each multiplied by it weight in the number; then delete the result by 89, and there should be nothing to remain).
Number should be 11 Digit Long. It should only contain digits.
1) Deduct 1 from first digit and multiply the result with 10
2) Multiply 2nd digit with 1, 3rd by 3, 4th by 5, 5th by 7, 6th by 9, 7th digit by 11 and so on.
Sum up all the results and divide the result by 89 (MOD) , which should come to zero.
if you enter a wrong australian business number (abn) on the vendor card and you get no error message, then there is no validation implemented. but it can be added quite easily by using the au-gov webservice for checking abns: abr.business.gov.au/Webservices.aspx
for that please contact your nav partner to get that kind of customization.
