Extra matching rules attached to a Vendor Posting Setup entry — VAT category, accounting cost, additional item properties.
Additional line properties (Vendor Posting References)
BC sub-page: Additional Item properties for line · Source:
RSMSTAVendorPostingReferences.Page.alStatus: Obsolete from version 25.0 — replaced by the Advanced Item properties sub-page on the Advanced Vendor Posting Template. Use that page on new setups.
This sub-page is shown under the Vendor Posting Setup card when Use Advanced Vendor Posting Template is off in Centara Setup. Each row narrows the match for the parent Vendor Posting Setup — for example “only match when the line’s VAT category is S” or “only match when the line description contains ‘CABLE’”.
Fields
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Reference Name | Which attribute of the inbound line this row matches against. Allowed values: blank, Line Vat Category, Accounting Cost (Header), Additional Item Property, Commodity Classification, Item Name, Line VAT Percentage, Document Reference, Accounting Cost (Line). On Validate, the page tries to pre-fill Reference Value with the corresponding value from the current line — saving typing for the common case. |
| Item Key | Required when Reference Name is AdditionalItemProperty, CommodityClassification, or DocumentReference. The key identifies which additional property the row matches on (e.g. property name = “Color”). Drill down to pick from existing values on the document. |
| Operand | Comparison operator — =, <>, >, <, etc. Editable only for property-style rows (AdditionalItemProperty/CommodityClassification/DocumentReference) and only when Contains is off. |
| Contains | When on, the rule matches if Reference Value appears anywhere in the line value. Example: Reference Value = “Cable” matches "Small Cable 2M, steel", "Large Cable 4M, plastic", and "CableTv". Turning Contains on forces Operand to =. |
| Reference Value | The value to compare against. Drill-down picks from the values seen on the current document — handy for filling in property values without typos. |
When to use what
| Goal | Use |
|---|---|
| Route a line based on its supplier item code | The parent Vendor Posting Setup itself (no reference needed) |
| Route a line based on its VAT category | One row with Reference Name = LineVatCategory |
| Route a line based on a free-text description match | One row with Reference Name = ItemName, Contains = on |
| Route lines that carry a specific additional property | One row with Reference Name = AdditionalItemProperty, Item Key = the property name, Reference Value = the value |
