As an alternative to setting up employees and credit cards as vendors on the Vendor Master screen, you can import vendor data from JAMIS or a third-party product.
You import JAMIS master data by using the Import from JAMIS program under the Interfaces menu. The import uses the FDVNDFIL file to build the vendor data.
During each subsequent import, the program rebuilds the vendor table. This means, if you make changes to vendors within JAMIS e-timecard, then future imports overwrite these changes. Make sure that you make any permanent changes in JAMIS.
If your installation is either standalone or integrated with a third-party product, then you can build the vendor table by using the Import from Third Party program to load the data from your current accounting system.
The vendor master is not included in the e-timecard master files. To import vendors, you must follow the instructions for importing individual files. In step 2, click the dropdown arrow for Table Name and select APVEND=Vendor Master.
