The Vendor Maintenance Changes Viewer stores a record of every change made in Vendor Maintenance, including any vendors added, changed, or deleted. When vendor information is changed, one change record is generated for each field changed. For example, if you change both a vendor's Phone Number and Contact, two change records are generated— one for phone number, another for contact.
To review the Vendor Maintenance Changes Viewer, you access it from the Go To menu in Vendor Maintenance. You can choose to view a particular vendor's change records, or you can view all vendors for a range of dates. When viewing by date, you can view all changes, or you can limit what displays: you can view only changes to a particular field, only vendors added, or only vendors deleted. For example, you can view all vendors that have been deleted in the last month. The Viewer will show each vendor that was deleted, when it was deleted, and who deleted it. You can even view a snapshot of how the vendor looked before the first change was recorded by double-clicking on "Starting Detail" in the Viewer.
Changes made in legacy MVR are not recorded in the Vendor Maintenance Changes Viewer.
