Alternate Vendor Address Table
Use this option to maintain alternate accounts payable addresses for your vendors. You can create multiple address records for a vendor, each of which is identified by an address code. You can apply these additional addresses when performing manual check and accounts payable functions.
Vendor records store two types of addresses: purchasing address and accounts payable or remittance address. In some cases, you may have more than one accounts payable address for a single vendor. The Alternate Vendor Address table enables you to change, delete, or print this additional information.
Menu Path: Fund Accounting > Reference Tables > Reference Tables > Alternate Vendor Address
Important
You cannot add addresses in this page. To add addresses, use the pages provided when running the Post Accounts Payable, Change Accounts Payable, Manual Checks, and Batch Manual Checks options.
Deleting Alternate Address Records
The Delete action bar item in the Alternate Vendor Address page allows you to delete address records. You can delete an individual record or all the records displayed in the page's list section.
The following table describes the buttons in the Delete Confirmation page:
All | Deletes all the records displayed in the page's list section. |
One | Deletes only the record selected in the List section. |
Cancel | Cancels the delete process. |
To avoid losing address records that you may need, generate the Alternate Vendor Addresses Marked for Deletion report before deleting any records. Refer to the Procedures section for details on generating this report.
The following are some additional points to consider when deleting alternate addresses:
- You cannot delete an alternate address record that contains amounts used in 1099 reporting.
- When you delete a vendor's alternate address, any transaction record using that address reverts to the remittance address stored in the main Vendor record.
- When you delete a vendor record in the Vendor List option, you also delete all of the alternate address records associated with the vendor.
The procedures for changing, deleting, and printing records in the Alternate Vendor Address page are explained below. There are two delete procedures, one for deleting a single record and one for deleting a group of records.

EFT Or ACH Tab
Use these fields to set up information for processing electronic funds transfer transactions when this accounts payable address is associated with a vendor check. These fields apply only to the EFT feature. For details, refer to Accounts Payable Processing.
Your ability to display and access this tab depends on your security resources.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Transaction Code | Setting indicating whether EFT payments for this AP address go into a checking or savings account. This setting also determines if you are submitting an actual payment or prenote data for verifying the vendor’s direct deposit information. Select: 22 - Checking Credit - Allows deposit of electronic funds to vendor’s checking account. Blank - Indicates actual checks are printed for this vendor, unless bank information is set up in the main Vendor record. If the alternate address does not have bank data set up and the main Vendor record does, the system looks to the main record for EFT settings. Your selection depends on the type of account the vendor uses and how many times you want to submit prenote data to your bank before allowing EFT payments for the vendor. After you set up the EFT information for this AP address, the system updates the transaction code based on vendor check processing. For instance, if the address record has a transaction code of 24, then the system creates prenote information when EFT payments are processed in a check run. The transaction code changes to 23. The next time you do a check run for EFT payments, the system generates final prenote data to send to your bank. The transaction code changes to 22, meaning you can now submit EFT payments, as long as the prenote data is valid. |
Bank Code | Bank where the vendor’s funds are routed, also known as the receiving depository financial institution in terms of Automated Clearing House (ACH) transactions. |
Account Number | Vendor’s bank account number as it will appear in the ACH file you send to your bank. Character/15 |
Alternate Email | Email address associated with the alternate vendor’s accounts payable department. Character/50 When EFT payment is issued, the system sends a notification to this address. However, your network’s mail server must be set up for this feature. To verify if the server is configured properly, contact your system administrator. |
