Concur Invoice Vendor ID Issues - Please help!!

[amanpreetkaur1]

Hello- We are in the process of implementing Concur Invoice. We ran into issues with duplicate vendor IDs in Concur as we have mutiple companies within our Concur system. When our vendor list was uploaded by our implementation specialist, some of the existing vendors of other companies were overwritten by our vendors due to same Vendor ID. 

Now we are working with a third party to install invoice connector in our accounting system, great plains. They advised us to update address accounting code using 'CompanyDatabaseName-GPVendorID' and also have Concur to create a Vendor Group in Concur to segregate our vendors from different companies so they don't overwrite.

Can someone please advise if this solution would work?

Thanks

@amanpreetkaur1 I think it might be difficult to get an answer to this unless there is someone else on the community who had the exact same issue and tried solving it the exact same way you have been advised.

I know you said you are using a third party, but have you tried speaking with your Invoice Implementation person to get their opinion?

Unfortunately, we are having a hard time working with our implementation person so just trying to seek opinion from outside.
