No ABN/TFN warning

Is there a way to turn off this warning for supplier cards for overseas companies that don't require an ABN? It's useful, when it's useful, but when it's not, it encourages people to enter any valid ABN in the ABN field. I know this is an internal training issue, but if we could exempt certain cards from the warning, that would at least keep our data accurate.

    Hi H-TS,

     

    I totally get where you’re coming from. For overseas suppliers that don’t have an ABN, that warning can end up being more annoying than helpful. The option that’s available is to turn that warning off in Purchases for the whole file. You can do that by going to Setup > Preferences > Purchases, then unticking Warn if Supplier Does Not Have an ABN for Purchases Greater Than $75 Tax Exclusive. If you’d prefer to keep the warning on, I’d recommend leaving the ABN field blank for those overseas suppliers rather than entering a random ABN, just to keep the card data accurate. 

     

    Regards,
