The vendor code is a unique identifier attached to the vendor record in myCOI Central. It is commonly used for integrations but can be used however your organization sees fit. If you need to update a vendor code, you can do so directly on the vendor's contact card in the Vendor Management tab.
There are two ways to look up a vendor code: through the Vendor Search section of your Customer Dashboard or by running a report.
Vendor Search
The quickest way to find a vendor code is through the Vendor Search section of your Customer Dashboard. You can search for a vendor and view their vendor code directly from there.
Finding a Vendor Code in Reports
If you need to look up vendor codes in bulk or for multiple vendors at once, running a report is the best approach.
Step 1: Navigate to Reports
Log in to myCOI Central and select Reports from the left-hand navigation.
Step 2: Select Your Report
Choose the report based on your situation:
- Use the Vendor Registration report for vendors with active assignments
- Use the Vendors with No Assignments report for vendor records with no assignments
Step 3: Add the Vendor Code Column
Before searching, make sure the Vendor Code column is visible in your report. Click the column settings icon in the column header and select Column Chooser. Find the Vendor Code option and select Show. Then click the Apply button to save your changes.
Step 4: Locate the Vendor Code
Once the Vendor Code column is visible, you have two options for locating a specific vendor:
Advanced Filter - select Advanced Filter from the same toolbar as Column Chooser and filter by the relevant field to narrow your results
- Export to Excel or CSV - export the report and use the filter function to search. Highlight the header row, click Data, then Filter, and use the dropdown in the relevant column to locate the vendor code
