Report Groups can be easily imported from Excel. Here's a fast way to set all your "On Hold" vendors to the Report Group "EFT":
- On the Vendor Grid, Press F6 to bring up the SmartFinder.
- Adjust the Grid Columns to show Vendor number, Vendor Name, Vendor Status (On Hold) and Report Group.
- Set the SmartFinder Rule to select all vendors where Vendor Status = 1.
- Send the resulting list to Excel and save the file in amongst your Adagio Data, turning off the Total Row.
- Create an import template to import this Excel Sheet using File | Import | Vendors.
- Choose the Vendor Code Field and 4 Fillers (You don't actually need to import anything other than the Vendor Code).
- Set the default Values for Vendor Status to "0" and Report Group to "EFT".
- Don't allow the addition of New Vendors. Say the First Row contains Headings.
- Make a backup.
- Process the import.
- Check the changes have been made as you expect.
