    St. Jude was purchased by Abbott last year. We updated the vendor on all open St. Jude POs in January. Some could not be changed due to previously matched invoices. We have an invoice for one of these POs that AP needs to pay to Abbott. I'm on the procurement side so I'm no that familiar with AP processing. Can AP match the PO and change the vendor on their side to pay to Abbott even though the PO vendor is St. Jude?

      We also experienced this. We had the AP staff make St Jude payable to Abbott. On AP10, in the Pay Vendor field we put the vendor number for Abbott. The payment history will be there for Abbott also.
