& character in vendor code 1

[vbdbcoder]

Hi guys,

I try to create PO receipt from API using .NET. But the vendor code has a & character, e.g. B&EE

The API reports an error [Receipt Attempt to change read-only field 'Vendor'.]

What is proper way to fix this without changing the vendor code.

Thanks.

Change the vendor code.
Key fields cannot contain special characters like &.
I don't know how that got there, but it does not belong there. The API is dropping the & from the vendor code so B&EE becomes BEE and so it thinks the field has changed.

My bad, AP does accept & in the vendor code.
Check your code that you are enclosing the text in quotes.
Show the line where you populate the vendor code.
