[OcrSupplierIdentification] section in Eiglobal.ini

These settings are used in the [OcrSupplierIdentification] section in Eiglobal.ini to specify how suppliers are identified on invoices in connection with master data:

Fieldn

The fields that are used to identify the supplier for an invoice. These are the default fields:

  • Field1=vatregistrationnumber
  • Field2=taxnumber1
  • Field3=taxnumber2
  • Field4=telephonenumber
  • Field5=faxnumber
  • Field6=street
  • Field7=streetsupplement
  • Field8=pobox
  • Field9=city
  • Field10=postalcode
  • Field11=city
  • Field12=postalcode

RequiredCharactersForNameMatch

Specifies the minimum number of characters that are needed to match in the name to generate a match for a supplier in master data.

Default value = 10

CheckIfSupplierIsBuyer Helps ensure that suppliers that are also buyers do not compete with other suppliers.

Valid values:

= 1 (enabled - default)
= 0 (disabled)

IgnoreInitialZerosInNumberMatching

When enabled, initial zeros are removed in number searches (even after letters).

Valid values:

= 1 (enabled - default)

= 0 (disabled)

 

SupplierFieldForLocationSearch

This setting is used when invoices for different suppliers are very similar and identifying the invoice definition is not sufficient to identify the supplier. This search is based on the location of either of these fields:

  • SupplierNumber
  • Name1

Example: SupplierFieldForLocationSearch=SupplierNumber

MakeSecondSupplierIdentification

Forces the program to use the same supplier identification as when a match is made with an invoice definition to ensure that the information on the invoices matches what is in master data.

  • = 1 - on (default)
  • = 0 - off

Note: INVOICES 5-7 Patch 3 or later required to use this.
