This will outline the setup of a new Vendor in the application.

To setup a vendor a one time setup must be done to add the following.

  • Unit: Vendor
  • Group: Vendor
  • Job: Vendor
  • Department: Vendor
  • Position: Vendor The position should have an FTE Override of "May Exceed FTE"
  • Payroll: Vendor - if you are using UPDISBV

Each new Vendor is then "Hired" into the application. The person_code is over written to start with leading"V" to designate they are a vendor. The IPPM should be setup to allow for direct deposit payments.

If the AP_VENDOR is setup then the vendor can be setup on each individual transaction.

A choice is then made on which process to follow

  • UPVEND :function is run to create an Accounts Payable (AP) interface file.
  • UPDISBV :This process describes how vendor payments are placed into the disbursement tables and not how they are actually paid.
