Vendors: Displaying Accounts Payable Changes to a Vendor Master Record

Use

When you change a master record, the system records the changes in a change document. For each field that you change, the system documents the time of the change, your user name, and the previous contents of the field.

Use this procedure to display simultaneously all changes you make for a vendor to one or more of the following:

General data
Purchasing data
Company code data

Procedure

On the Vendor Account Changes: Initial Screen enter the vendor number. Limit your selection by entering further criteria if required (such as the purchasing organization).

Choose Enter.

The Vendor Changes: Entries screen appears. This gives you an overview of the changes that match your selection.

You can now display the following information:

Choose Goto ® All changes to obtain information on the date of the change, the old field contents and the new field contents. For more detailed information on a particular item, position the cursor on the line required and choose Edit ® Choose.

Choose Goto ® Entries to see changed entries.

Note

While field changes apply to one particular field, an entry refers to a list of fields that are managed under one key and which can be entered or deleted as a group.

Examples of this are general changes to the vendor master, purchasing organization data, or contact person data.

Choose Goto ® Deletions to display deleted entries.

Choose Settings ® Field names to obtain a list of the names of the changed fields.

You can display changes for several vendors via Environment ® Multiple display.
