AP Vendor Listing Page (accounts payable vendor listing)

RUNCTL_PAYVNDR

Generate the PAYVNDR report that prints a listing of all vendors, up to a given date.

Each benefit provider, garnishment collector, tax authority, or other entity that receives employee deductions must have a valid Vendor ID. Vendor IDs created in the PeopleSoft Financials database can be viewed on the AP Vendor Listing report and in the Vendor table.

Note: If you are using Payables, it is highly recommended that you do not set up data in the HCM Vendor tables. This information should be set up in the Vendor tables in the PeopleSoft Financials database and sent to HCM through the VENDOR_FULLSYNC and VENDOR_SYNC service operations in PeopleSoft Integration Broker. If updates occur on the HCM vendor tables and do not get updated on the vendor tables in the PeopleSoft Financials database, the interface outcome could be unpredictable. Corrections and updates to vendor information should occur only in the PeopleSoft Financials database.
