IV39173: BMXAA3385E - THE SPECIFIED VENDOR IS NOT VALID

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Steps to replicate:
  
  
  Tested on Base Services 7.1.1.6-LA20130116-0848 Build
  20091208-1415 DB
  Build V7116-173 HFDB Build HF7116-37
  
  
  1) Create a new pricing contract with vendor and the contract
  lines
  added
  
  2) Make sure that the vendor added does not have the
  corresponding
  record in an organization.
  I tested with Company FSC who is only part of the ORG EAGLENA
  
  3) In the Purchase Contracts application when you select
  ?Authorize
  Sites? option from Select Action menu the contract can be
  authorized for
  the vendor in the site where it does not have the record at all
  such as
  in WOKING
  
  4) Add contract Lines to your Price contract
  
  I added a ITEM - TSTWOKING that i created in Site WOKING- ORG
  EAGLEUK
  
  And APPROVED my Contract
  
  5) Went to inventory and brought up the above ITEM TSTWOKING
  
  6) Ran the REORDER on this Item
  
  My Reorder Results is BLANK- NO PR get created
  
  When you check in the Logs you will see the following Error:
  
  ?psdi.util.MXApplicationException: BMXAA3385E - The specified
  vendor is
  not valid.
  
  Maximo should not have let to authorize site for the contract
  where
  there is no vendor presence. This is causing the problem in the
  later
  stage when the contract item is reordered.
