Does anyone know what this means or how I might resolve them?
The following purchase order(s) could not be posted to QuickBooks:
>3612677 (Details: There is an invalid reference to QuickBooks Vendor "East Fork
Nursery" in >the Bill. QuickBooks error message: Invalid argument. The specified record does not exist in >the list.)
84084 (Details: There is an invalid reference to QuickBooks Vendor "Natural
Resources >Recovery of" in the Bill. QuickBooks error message: Invalid argument. The specified record >does not exist in the list.)
Initially, suppliers were imported from Quickbooks. However, some newer employees were entering new vendors into RMS and adding POs. I quickly discovered that when I import suppliers from Quickbooks that it created a Supplier Code according to the following naming convention: the first seventeen characters of the supplier name in all caps with whitespace removed.
Seeing that as the link between the two programs, I changed the suppliers that they entered incorrectly with the proper supplier code and made sure that Quickbooks had those same vendor names entered the exact same way.
Just to check, I re-imported suppliers from Quickbooks. Any that I missed were added by Quickbooks. I could quickly find any suppliers with a supplier code that one of our clerks entered, change it to what Quickbooks would have imported in and delete the one that Quickbooks did import in.
Wow. In a nustshell, do I have the voodoo right? What would the above errors mean?
The result of those errors is that the batch does post, but those to POs will not have a bill created for them.
