Vendor Memo Codes - Functional List

The following list contains message codes programmed for use in order/pay/receipt records on NOTIS. Use the codes in Memo statements (M) to cause the pre-formatted texts to be printed on a standard letter-sized page. Use the codes in the NV field to cause the pre-formatted texts to be printed in the NOTE TO VENDOR area of the purchase order.

Codes print in the sequence entered.

When using more than one code, separate the codes with semicolons. Use semicolons only to separate codes. Do not use as punctuation in free text area of note. A new paragraph is created after each semicolon.

If an equal sign follows a code (e.g., crt=), it indicates that information may be inserted into the message. Type the information immediately after the equal sign.
