Users able to process transactions against Inactive Vendor

A user was able to enter a transaction (REQ, PO, Invoice) against an inactive vendor



Context

  • Requisitions

  • Purchase Orders

  • Invoices



Cause

By design



Resolution

The only vendor status that will restrict a user from using it is the Stop status. A vendor that is flagged with a status of inactive can still be used on transactions, the user will receive a warning message notifying them that the vendor is inactive but it does not stop them from using it. If you want the users to be hard stopped then you will need to change the status of that vendor to STOP.
