The Assign Tagged Items to Vendor option allows you to assign the selected open pending records to a specific vendor company. This option changes the name on the selected Pending records and it should be used carefully.
When the Assign Tagged Items to Vendor option is selected, the system performs the following actions.
• The system verifies that at least one pending record has been tagged or selected in the program.
• The system displays the Vendor Lookup program so that the operator can select the vendor that the tagged records should be assigned to. If a valid vendor company is not selected, the system will not process the records.
• The system updates the company name in the selected Pending records with the selected vendor company.
• The system creates a Data Change History record for each Pending record being processed to record the fact that the company name in the Pending records was changed. The Data Change History record is assigned a type of PM.
• The system writes an AR actions record for the invoice to record the fact that the record was assigned to a new company. The Actions record type is AR
• The system writes an AC comment for the action record which records the Item number and open quantity for each record being processed.
• The system updates the Company Type in the Pending records to V (vendor).
• The system re-assigns any serial records for the items and quantities being processed to the vendor company.
• The system displays a notice to indicate that the Pending records have been re-assigned.
