Vendor and supplier
All N1 segments are processed to attempt to cross-reference a Vendor and a Supplier
except for N1MF segments. When a cross-value is found, no further look ups are performed.
Use the asterisk (*) wild card value for the External Value field in Data Substitution records instead of specific account numbers. For example, use the asterisk if you receive 832 directly from a vendor and all N104 values should be mapped to a specific vendor ID.
Vendor
When you process other transactions, such as 810 invoices, vendors are cross-referenced using a <tpid>_I_VENDOR data substitution. 832 processing uses a different record, <tpid>_VENDOR
