Currently, PCMX does not update vendor info changes into other areas of the Vendor Module. Our subcontractors continually renew their insurances, and we update the Vendor/Compliance screen as such. However, PCMX does not feed this information to Subcontracts. We have to go in and manually update every subcontract for that vendor. It should update automatically!
Additionally, vendor tax setups do not automatically update either. For example, in reviewing 1099s, we realized some changes needed to be made to the names of subcontractors to reflect their accurate names for taxes. These did not feed through and we had to change all of them manually in Edit Vendor Compensation Forms. This should be automatic! In this same area, changing a vendor to a setup that requires a 1099 after payments have already been made to the vendor does not update automatically when 1099s are pulled and must be done manually.
These are basic updates that need to be automatic. There is no compliance issue here. We waste so much time entering the same info over and over again when it should update on its own.

You are correct. If you change information in the vendor set up, it should pull thru to all areas of the software. You shouldn't have to re-enter the same information twice.
