Hello everyone,

This is my Second day on the job, someone else run check links gp VERSION 6. Got this error message. "Aded using Check Links". Don't really know where to even look and what could have caused this problem. It added vendors.

any ideas, suggestions please

typically what happened is that there was some manual purging of the database and then when checklinks is ran it see's a transaction without a vendor and then recreates the vendor id. (you'll notice that the vendor card is not filled in properly)

and they wonder why they call it Great Pains!

Hi Jaz, thank you for the reply. What will be another reason. I been told that nothing has been purged.

I cannot think of any other reason. The only reason why checklinks would put the vendor back in is if there's an open or historical or open record that includes that vendor. I've seen it happen with wrongly imported item vendors, manual removal of vendors from the database and old versions of changer. You can narrow your search down by limiting the checklinks procedure to a few selections starting with transactions and work your way through until you find out what added the vendor back in.

Are you able to delete the vendors that were added by checklinks?
