Vendor Mergers and Acquisitions
jon-athey
How are vendor mergers and acquisitions handled within your organization? If a vendor with active contracts and POs is acquired by another that is not in your vendor master do you add a new vendor and create new contracts/POs or do you change the name on the existing vendor?

We create a new vendor and new contracts. On the PO side we haven't ever had an issue because any open PO just gets finished wih the original vendor and when the effective date of the acquisition takes place all PO's from that time forward points to the new vendor.

We also create a new vendor and new contract and based on the effectivity date we set the old vendor to a status of "D - PO add inactive" until all transactions have cleared. We have a Master Data Managment team that controls all the maitenence for both the items moving and the vendor move.
