Defaulting Supplier EXTERNAL_ID

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

Upon approving suppliers through the Self-registration List, the supplier creation page is loaded and the External ID field is pre-populated with "Vendor<datetimestamp>". Is there a way to check and/or remove this default value?

I guess you can use a script to Default/change the Value of extenal ID. Write a document life cycle script on supplier (and the particular document type you are using). Set target as "CREATED"

check/remove the value of external ID using

doc.getExternalId() or doc.setExternalId("");

Check if this works.
