For the AQ interface to work properly, you will need your AQ manufacturers linked to your TRX Vendors. We start by creating the Manufacturer under INV and Vendor under A/P, then we link them up using the Cross-Reference table under P/A.

Create Manufacturer

To begin, we need to have the AQ manufacturer. We can add it under the “Manufacturers” tab on the INV>INV Special Functions>INV Definitions screen.

  1. Open INV Definitions screen

  2. Click on “Manufacturers” tab

  3. Select one of the MFG’s

  4. Hit the Green +

  5. Enter the MFG # and Description

  6. Hit the Save button or F10

INV>INV Special Functions>INV Definitions | Manufacturers tab

Create Vendor

Next, we need to create a Vendor to link the Manufacturer to under the Enter/Edit Vendors screen. (A/P>Vendors>Enter/Edit Vendors)

  1. Go to A/P>Vendors>Enter/Edit Vendors

  2. Use Tab and Enter to navigate as you fill in Fields

    1. Use F9 if you aren’t sure what to enter

  3. Fill out Header information (Vendor name, accounts, terms, buyer, etc.)

  4. Create at least one Contact

  5. Hit the Save button or F10

Create Cross-Reference

Now that the Manufacturer and Vendor exist, we need to link them up under the AQ Manufacturers tab of the AQ Setup screen. (P/A>P/A Special Functions>AQ Setup)

  1. Go under P/A>P/A Special Functions>AQ Setup

  2. Click on the AQ Manufacturers tab

  3. Use either AQ MFG Code or MFG Description to find the AQ Manufacturer

  4. Use F9 to find or enter your Vendor Number in the “Enterprise Vendor” field

  5. Hit Enter to Confirm your Vendor choice

  6. Hit the Save button or F10
