How can I find a list of EFT vendors?
Since the launch of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) initiative in August 2022, some vendors have been transitioned from payments via cheque to direct deposit. In Phase 1, 33 vendors were onboarded, and more will be added on an ongoing basis from Phase 2 onwards.
As of March 2nd, 2023, users can find a list of vendors that are set up for EFT payments using the vendor match code search available in common AMS transaction screens, such as FB60 – Enter Invoice or ME21N – Create Purchase Order.
Steps:
- Place cursor in Vendor/Supplier field and click the match code button.
1. In the Vendor Matchcode Search pop-up, ensure you are in the “2. U of T Active Suppliers (by CompCode)” tab. If this tab does not appear by default, click the tab list icon ( ) to locate it. |
 |
| 2. Enter partial Supplier name in the Name field, using the wildcard (i.e. *cassidy*) to expand search results.
NOTE: If you want to view a complete list of EFT vendors, leave the Name field blank. |
|
| 3. All EFT vendors will be flagged with Payment Method “E”. Enter “E” in the Payment Methods. | |
| 4. Delete any limit (e.g., 500) within the Maximum No. of Hits field to ensure the search results yield a complete list. | |
4. Click Start Search ( ). |
5. A list of all EFT vendors will appear.
