Vendor Last Payment Activity Report - This new report has been added to the Accounts Payable Reports menu. The report was designed to assist with the identification of active vendors who may be inactivated due to no payment activity since a specified date.

The report can be filtered by eligibility for inactivation. This filter is based upon the same inactivation criteria used on the Vendor Service page. The options are All, Yes, No. The output format is a pop up grid, which will allow for sorting, filtering and exporting.
