Vendor is duplicating invoices among distrib centers

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by TrishF 55

We have a vendor that ships from multiple distribution centers and therefore duplicates their invoice numbers.  These are all within the same year so purging history isn't an option.  Any suggestions on how to get around this?  I don't want to allow duplicates on all vendors but wish I could find a way to allow them on just this one vendor.

    Can you use a prefix or suffix added to the invoice number to represent the different distribution centers.

    1. Open payable management setup window(Tools-->Setup-->Purchasing-->Payables).

    2. Click "No" under the section "Allow Duplicate Invoices Per Vendor". So, this won't allow to enter duplicate invoices for all the vendors.

    But, if you want to use duplicate invoice for one specific vendor, create a VBA customization to add prefix or sffix to the invoice number/document number as per Richard suggestion.

    Hope this helps!!!
