Error: Payee not on vendor/grantee table

How do we fix this message?
 
 The idcode (1253) associated with the payee is not on the vendor/grantee table.
 
 Approved applications will not post to A/P until this idcode is either changed on the application or added to the vendor/grantee table.

Answer:

The payee validation pop=up message can easily be resolved. You get the error when a payee record on a grant or scholarship application does not have a vendor or grantee record.
 
 To resolve this error:
 
 1. Add a grantee or vendor record to the profile record that is listed in the pop-up message.
 2. Fill in the payee information on the right side of the contact tab.
