Block a Supplier
Objective
The Block a Supplier option allows the user to block a supplier’s file, which keeps them from creating a transaction with this supplier.
|
Closed suppliers are displayed in supplier lists of various maestro* modules. But when one of them is selected, the “This supplier is currently blocked or closed” Warning message appears and the supplier cannot be selected. |
This action is a temporary suspension of interaction with a supplier, even if it may be possible to later unblock this supplier.
