Query reg. Vendor list.

[Former Member]

We are on SRM 5.0. There is a Vendor list created in the system with 20 odd Vendors. Now this Vendor list is no longer required.

What is the best way to de-activate it ? Any suggestions on this would help.

Thanks

As you said, You can deactivate those unwanted vendor list . so they are no more source of supply for requisitions.

when you want back them, you can activate them.

Do we de-activate the Vendor list by deleting the Vendors and setting the list to "Not Released" status ? This is how I understand. If someone could confirm this would be great.

Thanks.

- Deactivate individual vendors or backend contracts within a vendor list. These are then no longer shown in the applications

Thanks Muthu. Yes I did go through that help. The issue is if we delete all the Vendors from the list an error message as per below is populated -

Enter at least one item that is active or undergoing checks

So ultimately we have deleted all Vendor except one due to the error message and set the Vendor list to 'Not Released' status.

This is the work around we have used. Do let me know if you see anything incorrect here.

Thanks
