Accounts Payable: Renumber Vendor

January 2023    Tags: Accounts Payable, Vendors

We just realized that the last few vendor numbers were entered outside of our numbering scheme. Is there a way to change the vendor numbers, or will we have to delete them and recreate them one at a time?

The Renumber Vendors program can be used to assign new numbers to existing vendors. All invoices, manual checks, EFTs, posted checks and EFTs, voided checks, recurring entries, and vendor productivity amounts are renumbered as well.

To renumber a vendor

1. In the Quick Launch, search for and select “Renumber Vendor.”
2. In the Old Vendor Number field, select the vendor you want to change
3. In the New Vendor Number field, enter the new number for the vendor.
4. Click OK.

Your vendor will now have the new number and is ready for use.
