Can I keep my One-Time Vendors off my main vendor list?

Posted on by Community Member

We're using the Import One-Time Vendor and Invoice capability for non-repeating payments. It creates a vendor with a different Vendor Account pre-fix. Based on what I read here I was expecting that these vendors would not appear on the All Vendors list in the Accounts Payable module. 

I couldn't find anything in the Accounts Payable Setup to do this. 

Any way to make this happen? 

Thanks in advance.

    Can you use the filtering controls just above the grid on the vendors form to do this?

    The following seems to work for me.

    Above the grid there are some filtering controls.

    Expand the drop down for fields to filter by and click More ...

    Expand the list of fields for vendor.

    Click on the One time supplier field

    Click Add button

    Click Cancel to close the fields list.

    Set the filter value to No and then click the -> button to apply the filter.

    If the filter is doing what you wanted, then find the text just above the grid that says 'Unsaved filter' and expand the drop down menu button just to the right of that text.  There is a command on that menu to save the filter.  I'm not sure if the filter is saved for everyone or just for you.  Next time you open the form, the filter should be applied.

    Hope this helps,

    Thanks Lance. You answered my question and that will be useful but I now realize I am looking for more guidance than I requested.

    I would like One-Time Vendors to not be selectable as at Vendor when I create an Invoice Journal. I am aware that we can put a hold on each vendor but was hoping there was a  more "universal" setting that would exclude these vendors from being selectable for future invoices (which is the nature of a one-time vendor).

    Thanks in advance.
