Use the Manage Suppliers window to deactivate and activate suppliers. You can deactivate only suppliers that have an account balance of zero.
When you add a supplier the default setting is active, but you can also activate a mapped supplier that has been deactivated (unmapped vendors must be mapped before they can be reactivated).
When a supplier is deactivated, you can still reference the supplier (i.e., view old transactions) in the database, but you cannot use the supplier (for new transactions) in agrē.
FCL Status is controlled by FCL and cannot be updated manually. FCL Status updates are received nightly from the mainframe via CRS Hub.
