Sage Intacct Sync Error | Smart rule VENDOR-TYPE-REQ was violated. Vendor Type is a required field. | Error Code: BL04002055

Overview

This error occurs when Ramp attempts to create or update a vendor in Sage Intacct, but a smart rule requires the Vendor Type field to be populated.

Option 1: Update the VENDOR_TYPE_REQ smart rule

In Sage Intacct, adjust the VENDOR_TYPE_REQ smart rule so it works with the Ramp sync. Choose one of the following:

• Trigger the rule as a warning instead of a hard error.
• Exclude the Web Services user or role that Ramp uses to sync.
• Run the rule only on final approval or posting, rather than during initial vendor creation.

Option 2: Pre-create the vendor

1. Manually create the vendor record for the reimbursed employee in Sage Intacct.
2. Populate the Vendor Type field before retrying the sync.
3. Once the vendor already exists with a valid Vendor Type, Ramp will not attempt to create a new vendor.
4. Retry the sync.
