A hold can also be placed on a specific Vendor in Vendor Maintenance which will prevent all of that vendor's invoices from being automatically selected in Invoice Payment Selection, regardless of whether holds have been previously placed on each individual invoice. The same Vendor Maintenance "Hold Payment" selection will then also cause each subsequent newly created invoice for that vendor to automatically have a hold placed on it. When the "Hold Payment" is later removed from Vendor Maintenance, this prevents any future new invoices not to be held; however, it does NOT release the holds previously placed. The previously placed holds have to be removed for each individual invoice thru Accounts Payable Invoice Data Entry. For vendors with many invoices, this is a time consuming task.
To be able to remove all holds from a particular Vendor's invoices without having to do so individually for each invoice.

Or, don't add the invoice hold to each invoice entered after a vendor has been put on hold. What's the purpose of a "double hold"?
Seems to me (logic) that if it puts all the invoices currently in the system on hold when you check the vendor hold box is should likewise take them off hold when unchecked.
This does need to be fixed, seems to me (logic) that if it puts all the invoices currently in the system on hold when you check the vendor hold box is should likewise take them off hold when unchecked.
