The Purchasing area currently offers two (2) utilities: Vendor Global Modify and Close Receipts.

Vendor Global Modify

Global modify programs allow users to make changes to many records (items, customers, vendors, etc.) all at the same time. Due to this, it's important to be careful. There is no "undo" for global modifications and it is not always easy or possible to identify original values and what necessarily was changed after the fact. Restricting security access to a few users is suggested.

Close Receipts

The Close Receipts utility is a database maintenance function that is used to change the status on purchases of inventory (receipts) so that they no longer appear in Payables as eligible for invoicing. This utility does not remove any receipt history on items received and will not affect inquiries on items nor will it remove any documents associated with receipts. No automatic ledger adjustment to either the accrual or inventory accounts is made when a receipt is closed. Closing a receipt document is not the same as reversing a receipt.
