Jenni: Not the silver bullet here, but some less-invasive ideas for you: Use your Configurable User Interface to redesign the client screen to make this field more obvious to the user that is expecting data (i.e. make it the first field in the tab sequence) You may be able to use a combination of Oracle trigger and integration with e-mail to trigger the exception condition (i.e. no data) to the appropriate person and provide a database utility program to add it in after the fact. I can refer you to one of our clients who is doing things like this.

Is there any way to make a field in A/P Invoice Entry a required field? We are interested in using the Reference field to analyze some purchases being made, but the information does not reside in BPCS. The A/P Coordinator needs to enter the information as he/she keys the invoice, but, without the system requiring an entry in that field, we run the risk of less than 100% compliance. We don't need it to be validated against anything; we just need to have an entry in that field. If for some reason a purchase does not have this type of information available, the Coordinator will probably enter a 0 or some other character that will indicate it is not applicable. If anyone has any information on whether this is possible, I would appreciate your comments. Thank you!
