Hiding inactive vendors

Pro Fund Accounting can hide inactive vendors and customers. On the Vendor Maintenance and Customer Maintenance screens, there is a field called Status. This will allow you to mark a vendor or customer as inactive, which will hide the inactive vendor or customer for any of the Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable post programs.

On the Vendor Maintenance and Customer Maintenance screens, there is a new option under the Record menu called Show Active Vendors/Customers only. These screens default to showing just the active vendors or customers. On the maintenance screens, you can still see the inactive vendors by turning off the Show Active Vendors/Customers filter.

Now when you are adding a new record to the AP Post, Invoice Post, and Payment Post programs; the list of vendors or customers that appears will only show you the active vendors or customers. This way you can mark a vendor or customer as inactive and Pro Fund Accounting will prevent you from posting a new invoice or payment to that inactive vendor or customer.

Setting vendors or customers to inactive can come in handy to reduce the number of vendors or customers that you see when using the post programs.
