New VENDOR MODULE Preference for UPVEND and UPDISBV

Reference GES Case 106668 and MCNJ case 116086 with attached document 116086_UPVEND_PPL_20130315.docx

UPAUDT Ensures that all Vendor Items have the PPL reference Indo column populated with the Vendor Code.

The VENDOR MODULE preference must be set up in IMFN for the UPVEND function. Valid values are: UPVEND and UPDISBV

• A value of UPVEND will result in UPAUDT populating the Vendor Code on the pay lines in IPPH.
• A value of UPDISBV will result in UPAUDT not populating the Vendor Code on the pay lines.
• If the preference is not defined UPAUDT will update the pay lines with a Vendor Code.

Clients who use UPDISBV MUST define this preference with a value of UPDISBV so that the vendor code is not populated on the pay lines. Failing to do so will cause UPDISBV not to function properly
