- The Accounts Payable branch is a 10-character alphanumeric field.
-
When purchase order numbering is defined as Alphanumeric and Prefixed by branch, the same prefix should not be used for different branches as this could lead to SYSPRO not being able to allocate the next purchase order number due to a possible duplicate key situation.
-
SYSPRO does not validate whether any suppliers are attached to the branch when you delete a branch.
