Help:AP1-Remove Old Vendors
This window titled Remove Old Vendors is used to remove all of the historical information for a selected vendor. A vendor can only be removed if it has no unpaid invoices.
|
Important: IMPORTANT: BEFORE you perform any purging process, you should do a complete backup of all MoverBiz data files. If you happen to make an error in the purging process, then this backup will be the only way you will be able to restore the erroneously purged records. |
Vendor: Enter a "0" (zero) if you wish to include all vendors. If you wish to remove only one vendor, then enter that vendor number. The name of the selected vendor will be displayed to the right of this field. Press the drop down button to the right of this field to open a window titled Select the A/P Vendor which displays the current vendors.
Cutoff Last Date: Enter the cutoff date for this operation. Any vendor with a Last Activity Date on or before this date will be removed. This field is only available if you entered a "0" in the Vendor field above to include all vendors. NOTE: Press the drop down button to the right of this field to activate a pop-up calendar which can be used to select the date. Once a date has been selected, the up/down arrows to the right of this field can be used to move the date up or down one day at a time.
