Stop New Transactions on Inactive Suppliers

Under customers when a record is made ‘inactive’ it stops any new sales orders or transactions being added.
When you make a supplier inactive, it does not have the same functionality. Is there anyway the same functionality can be added to suppliers, so that any new transactions cannot be added such as a new purchase order.

    A few Validation rules & Chooser conditions in a deployment package is a semi-convincing way to make this work without having to add that functionality in code.

    Can you add a Global Type Filter to the relevant Security Policies to filter out the inactive suppliers? This should stop users from seeing those suppliers when trying to add a purchase order.

    Hi Sonal,

    If you have Nexus (or Agility) you should be able to create a Protect rule to achieve this.
    If you don’t have these then your iQ proserve guru should be able to do this in about 2 mins.

    In the meantime, you could create a selection message to remind the users that this supplier is no inactive.

    Hope that helps

    I second this. We’ve had to resort to typing “DO NOT USE” in to the the supplier name to try and avoid this
