The Vendor Update Report (RVU) updates the Vendor File Maintenance window and prints the purchasing history for the last quarter (not the current quarter just ended). The last quarter is printed because that information will not be available after updating completes. The purchasing history is updated by the Receiving Report (RRP), option F. You will normally run this report at the end of each quarter and at the end of the year as specified in the Date Table (MDT).
When year-end updating is finished, all the Last Year discount history fields (updated by the Accounts Payable subsystem) and all Last Year purchasing history fields are also included on the report.
The information on this report comes directly from the Vendor File Maintenance window, the History tab. The report prints the information that exists before any updates are done. This report cannot be run without updating options and cannot be aborted.
Note: This report should be run as part of your end-of-month queue.
