Error 41 APWMAA 7870, when in Vendor Maintenance
Entry Type: Informational
Product: Sage MAS 90 ERP, Sage MAS 200 ERP, Sage MAS 200 ERP - SQL Server Edition
Application: Accounts Payable
Version Reported: n/a
Subject:
Error 41 APWMAA 7870, when in Vendor Maintenance
Possible Resolution:
The 1099 Vendor Type field is "B" or "I", (rather than "N" for None), but a 'Default 1099 Form' (M, I or D) has not been assigned to that vendor.
1. Open Library Master / Repair / Data File Display and Maintenance.
2. Click 'OK' at the warning message.
3. Enter AP1xxx (xxx = Company Code) in the 'File Name' field and ENTER.
4. Click 'Key Scan' button and select a Vendor that is receiving the error.
5. Click 'Edit' button and enter: Field 1, Position 260, Length 1 and click 'OK' This displays the 1099 Vendor Type.
6. Note the value in the 'Change' field. It should be either: "N" (None), "B" (Business), or "I" (Individual).
7. Click the 'Edit' button again and enter: Field 1, Position 303, Length 1 and click 'OK'. This displays the 1099 Default Form. The filed will likely be blank. If the 1099 Vendor Type is "B" or "I", this field should display "I" (Interest), "D" (Dividend) or "M" (Miscellaneous).
Possible ways to correct this include:
1. Re-import the Vendors and include the Default 1099 Form' (M, I or D).
2. Re-import the Vendors and assign "N: (None) to the 1099 Vendor Type field. The 1099 Vendor Type and 1099 Form fields can be changed later in Vendor Maintenance.
3. Assign a Default 1009 Form to each Vendor in Data File Display and Maintenance.
* Open AP1xxx (xxx=Company Code) in LM / Repair / Data File Display and Maintenance (DFDM)
* Click the 'Key Scan' button and select a Vendor that is receiving the error.
* Click the 'Edit' button and enter: Field 1, Position 303, Length 1 and click 'OK'. This displays the 1099 Default Form. Enter either "I" (Interest), "D" (Dividend) or "M" (Miscellaneous) (no quotes).
* Click 'OK' and repeat the steps for each Vendor until the 1099 Default Form has been assigned to each Vendor.
