Hi,

suppose you order goods from a vendor with whom you usually do not place orders, because your main vendor was not able to supply the required items. In this case, you would use a "one-time vendor" master record.

In contrast to other master records, a "one-time vendor" master record is used for several vendors. The purpose of this is to avoid the unnecessary creation of an excessive number of individual vendor master records. For this reason, you may not store any vendor-specific data in a "one-time vendor" master record.

When creating a "one-time vendor" master record, you must assign a one-time account group. This account group determines that the vendor-specific fields are suppressed. You donu2019t need to enter this data until the time a purchasing document (e.g. a PO) is created.

When you create a purchasing document with a one-time vendor, you will be asked to enter the vendor address. Enter the vendoru2019s name and address.

Like all other master records, you can display, block, or delete one-time vendor master records.

Dear Kamlesh

1) for one time vendor we never maintained separate master record , when you will use it , system will ask address and bank details in separate screen. but when we use regular vendor all information come automatic.

2) One time vendor doesn't means you can use one time . you van create many another PO also .

Hi

One time Vendor

A Vendor account on which the transaction figures are recorded for only conduct business once, or rarely.

One-time accounts require a special master record.

Certain vendor data (such as address and bank details) is not entered in the master record, but in the actual document.

Usually an account is created as One time vendor.

In the PO it can be used... at the time of invoicing the Bank details and other details are required for postings and payment

Account group for one time vendor is CPD - For internal number range, CPDL for external number range

Thanks & Regards
