We have a Vendor - multiple that we no longer use. I am not able to change their status to in-active in the vendor center as they have purchase req’s already associated to them. Is there another way to remove them from the selection list of vendors? All of the associated PR’s are fulfilled, so one would think you could make that change.

Vendor Center - in active

Hi Angie,
There is no other mechanism within the application to make the vendor inactive once any PR is associated with that vendor. The warning is correct.
The PR may be completed and accepted (assuming it was a straight purchase from a vendor) but there could be other processes which also rely on active vendors such vendor returns which can still take place even after the original PR’s are completed.
To do anything otherwise would be an RFE which are no longer being developed for the Alliance product at this point in the lifecycle.

+3Thank you, Wish there was someway for them to not show up as “available”. I ended up just changing their names to “Do not use”.. but some people don’t always read :-)
