Accounts Payable Checks Progression ver 7.6.4b

[ultrav]

We just had a vendor change over to using a factor - since we don't want to change the name of the vendor - we changed the payee name on pg 2 of the the vendor file. Problem is I can't find payee name as a field in Form Maintenance - so on the checks it is written out to the vendor name.

Any ideas?

Go to form field maintenance and add it to the fields available to the form. Then go back to form designer and add it.

In field maintenance, when I search the fields under AP Checks they do not list payee name - how do I get it in that search list?

You are ADDING this value to the list of available fields, so of course by definition it does not yet exist there and therefore is not seen by the search.

When you get to field number, pick a number that does not appear on the search. I used 300 but it doesn't really matter. then tab through this to get to the section of the form you want your new field to be available on, in this case T for Trailer.

Pick APVENFIL as the table, and VEND_PAYEE_NAME as the field. Save it, and go back to form designer and the field will be available to be added to the form.

Thanks

Ok - I am now getting an error "error in DDF File - Status = 23" I tried to log on to the customer portal to find the error but something is wrong - can't get to the portal.

I am able to get into the customer portal now - found document 13.163.889 addressing the ddf issue - will write back after I complete their recommendation.
