Vendor/Customer Creation (VCC) Transaction

The Vendor/Customer Creation (VCC) transaction allows you to add new records to the Vendor/Customer table, 1099 Reporting Information table, and the Customer Account Options table. This transaction can be sent through workflow and approvals. Only one Vendor/Customer record can be entered on this transaction. (A single record may be both a Vendor and a Customer.)

The Vendor/Customer Creation (VCC) transaction cannot be modified or cancelled once it has been submitted to Final. A Vendor/Customer Modification (VCM) transaction must be created to reverse the effects of the original transaction. The VCC transaction cannot reference any other transaction in Advantage and it cannot be referenced by any other transaction in Advantage.

Depending on your site’s security setup, records can be added to the Vendor/Customer table manually or through the Vendor Customer Creation (VCC) transaction by clicking the Create New Record button. The VCC transaction can also be created from the Transaction Catalog.

When the TIN Enforcement flag is selected on the Vendor Customer Configuration (VCNFG) page, the Taxpayer ID and TIN Type fields are required on this page for all active vendors except the miscellaneous and internal vendors, if the 1099 Classification, 1042-S Ch. 3 Recipient Code, and 1042-S Ch. 4 Status Code fields are left blank.

When the DFLT_VERIFY_MY_LOC_BY parameter on the Application Parameter (APPCTL) table is set to True, the Verify My Location By field on the Vendor Customer Creation (VCC) transaction will default to Create My Own.

A VCC transaction can also be created by selecting the Add New Customer Account action on Customer Account Options (CACT). Refer to the "Customer Account Options" topic in the CGI Advantage Accounts Receivable User Guide for information about Customer Account Options.

When the Customer Self Service (CSS) related fields are updated and the CSS Status is Requested, on submitting the VCC transaction, the system automatically generates a Customer User Maintenance (CDOC) transaction. Refer to the “Customer Self Service” topic in the CGI Advantage Accounts Receivable User Guide for information about CSS.
