ERIC:

Pass on to your BFS person:

use VID 54556; location 8 or 13 or 17 (there should be only one other
location set up for this--but looks like many depts are making more
location lines, unnecessarily). You need to click on the vendor
button (under the vendor ID) to choose locations other than the
default #1 location.

the Remit to is essentially the Location option on the VID.
Disbursements will pay the business/address on the invoice so it's
most important that the PO VID be CompuCom.

I dealt with this recently...it is a mysterious area that I have
suggested be detailed on the TRC website for UC (which VID and
location to be used; it wouldn't be that hard and make it easy for
many!).
