The alert needs to be in place as it was before to make sure that an invoice number is entered with each and every invoice. The alert still works in AP Transaction Entry, but for some reason it has been deleted from AP Unapproved Invoice Entry. It would be nice to have it back as soon as possible!

Many fields in AP Unapproved Entry can initially be left blank - this allows users to quickly capture/record an invoice before all of its coding is known. AP Reference is however required to post the invoice as an open payable after review and approval.
Andre is correct, you can make AP Ref a required field in AP Unapproved Entry using F3 Field Properties.
This would be something one of your administrators did most likely, or an update. Not something Vista would have done. Get your administrators to press F3 in the Invoice Number field and select "Value is required".
