One Time Vendor

[AliMack]

As part of the AP process there are 'vendors' that are one time use only. Has anyone implemented a method of processing 'vendors' as a One Time Vendor bearing in mind the payment process that is associated with the vendor account?

I thought that I read somewhere that there was an alternative solution that involved payments on behalf of or factored accounts.

This is a common requirement and we have not yet found a good solution. You can create a vendor called "One Time Vendor", then edit the Supplier Address on the PO, including the actual supplier name on first line. HOWEVER when you want to pay the vendor on a check, the Supplier Address added on the PO form does not appear. Any ideas from the community?

Dear Alastair,

In SAP Business ByDesign, the functionality of one time vendor is not developed yet. As told by Carol, please raise this request in influence site. (https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/campaign/886)
