    When choosing the RAD module via our hand held device, we are selecting the Misc. Receiving option. We are then asked to choose a location (we are in Test and only 1 location is set up right now). At that point, we get a message saying that there is no carrier associated with the company.

    We found direction in the MSCM RAD user guide, however we want to know if there is any impact to AP10 and/or PO10 since vendors filter over from our Lawson server which "talks" to our MSCM server.

    Here is what the user guide suggests for RAD Vendor Managment:

    Vendors created in AP10

    All vendors that are created in AP10 will be associated to Accounts Payable. Modifications to AP10

    vendors can only be completed in AP10.These vendors can also be flagged as Type = Misc. Receiving

    and/or Carrier.

    NOTE 

    You can configure all vendors from AP10 with a PO10 record to be automatically flagged as a

    Misc Receiving Vendor type.

    The application default is configured NOT to designate all Vendors with a PO10 record as misc receiving

    vendors. To change the default configuration, open the  

    mscm.filter.properties file in an ASCII editor

    and locate the following section.

    ################################################

    ## RAD Miscellaneous Receiving Vendor Setting ##

    ################################################

    # Set to 1 to mark all PO Receiving Vendors (PO10) as Misc Receiving Vendors

    # Set to 0 to not mark all PO Receiving Vendors (PO10) as Misc Receiving Vendors

    rad.miscreceiving.vendor.import.flag=0

    Change the flag= value to 1 to make the application default that all PO Receiving Vendors are Misc

    Receiving Vendors. Save the file.

      Setting a vendor as a "carrier" in mscm has no impact on ap10 or po10. If you set carrier as required in your misc receiving configuration, then you need to set the vendors to carrier in vendor management in mscm, so you see the choices when doing a misc receipt. For example if you want Fed Ex as one of the misc receiving carriers, find your ap10 vendor number for fed ex, set this as a carrier in mscm vendor management, and it will show up when doing a misc receipt.
