Changing an Individual Supplier Number

To change a supplier/creditor number one at a time:

  1. Select MAINTENANCE | OTHER MAINTENANCE | CHANGE SUPPLIERS.

Micronet displays the Change Supplier Numbers screen.

  1. Complete the following fields:

 

Field

Value

 

Supplier Number

Enter or select the supplier number to be changed. You can also press spacebar then Enter to select a supplier.

 

Supplier Name

Micronet displays the supplier's name for verification that you have the correct supplier.

 

New Supplier

Enter the new supplier number you want on file. Micronet checks that this supplier number does not already exist.

 

Save Old Supplier

Select whether you want to save the old supplier in the Supplier master file. Options are:

  • No - move the old supplier to the new supplier number (deleting the old supplier)
  • Yes - create a duplicate of the old supplier with the new supplier number (saving the old supplier).

 

Change History

Select whether you want the supplier number updated in the sales, purchase and account histories. Options are:

  • No - retain the history files with reference to the old supplier number
  • Yes - update your history files with the new supplier number. This effectively removes any trace of the old supplier number.

 

Change Creditors

Where Micronet Creditors Ledger is installed, suppliers and creditors are linked by a common number. If you are changing the supplier number, it would be normal to also change the creditor number.

Select whether you want the supplier number updated in your Creditors master file in MCL. Options are:

  • No – don't update the Creditors master file in MCL
  • Yes – update the Creditors master file in MCL with the new supplier number.
  1. Select FILE | START.

Micronet processes the requested supplier/creditor change.
