Locking out access to generate PO for certain suppliers

Here is what I started on, and it seems to prevent certain users from
unchecking "Inactive" box for certain suppliers.

Private Sub Vendor_AfterFieldChange(ByVal sender As object, ByVal args
As DataColumnChangeEventArgs) Handles Vendor_Column.ColumnChanged
'// ** Argument Properties and Uses **
'// args.Row("[FieldName]")
'// args.Column, args.ProposedValue, args.Row
'
'Add Event Handler Code
'



Select Case args.Column.ColumnName

Case "Inactive"
Dim [WhoUser] As String = VendorForm.Session.UserName
Dim [edvVarName] As EpiDataView =
CType(oTrans.EpiDataViews("VendorDetail"), EpiDataView)
Dim [VarName] As String =
[edvVarName].dataView([edvVarName].Row)("VendorID")
Dim Users as New Collection
With Users
.Add("User1")
.Add("User2")
End With
Dim I as String
For each I in Users
If (I <> WhoUser) and (VarName = "XVEND") then
OTrans.Clear()

Else

End If
Next

Case Else

End Select

End Sub

Is there within a way in Vantage to lock out purchasing from
generating purchase orders to certain suppliers that the lock out is
controlled by a certain group?

Is this something that can be customized with .net programming or a BPM?

In 8.03.4xx you could remove the Approved check to prevent any POs to that supplier. You can control who has access to the Supplier Maintenance or the approved status through security. You can even controll what parts, part class, Operations, etc. that the supplier is approved for.Â

You could set up the buyers you want to lock out to require approval for their POs.

Sounds like that might not be a great fit however.

Also might want to try unapproving the specific vendors and only giving your approval group access to temp approve them as POs are required.

If that all fails, you can add a customize supplier maintenance and use a ud checkbox field to indicate whether the vendor should be restricted (re PO entry). Then you can ucsotmize PO Entry to check user ID of the person in PO Entry and, if part of your restricted list, then check vendor to see if the vendor is one of the ones you want to stop entry against.

PO entry seems to be going through significant underlying changes the last few upgrades so you risk your customization going haywire after each upgrade.

It can be done though. We did something like this for Supplier maintenance.

Is there within a way in Vantage to lock out purchasing from
generating purchase orders to certain suppliers that the lock out is
controlled by a certain group?

Is this something that can be customized with .net programming or a BPM?
