I am attempting to create an Automatic Posting Rule in APPS 10 to trigger for specific Code Part combinations when the VALUE in the PROJECT Code Part Field is NOT NULL.  I have been successful in creating Automatic Posting Rule to reclass ALL I vouchers with the specific code part values - but have NOT been successful in getting it to work for that combination for ONLY when there is a Project value populated in the code string.  (per page Help: Project Code part values that identify the original code string. A percent (%) sign can be used in combination with a process code. Note! The code part names are user-defined. Information on the code parts is entered in Account and Code Part Values. Using % (percent sign) in a code part, results in automatic posting taking place even though the code part has a null value. If (_%) is entered, automatic postings are created only for code parts that are not null.)

I have attempted using a value where the Project Code Part is populated in the  _% and (_%)  - and have also attempted by populating all code string fields with _% - and none have worked.

 

 

 

I also updated to try this setup for Project Code Part - but this did not work either:

These are the results when i created the I voucher when there were % values for all code parts - as you can see it did not limit the automatic posting to only the lines with a Project Code part - ALL transactions with the designated Account-Div-Dept-Segment were reposted - 

 

How do I update the rule so that ONLY the lines with Project values repost?
Recommendations welcomed!
Thanks in advance for your assistance!

 

 

 

Hello,
This setup should work, can you share test result with this setup?
 

Alternatively, you can create TWO rules with same seq_no but different priorities. 
1. Priority 10, with Original code string Project EMPTY and no automatic posting rows at all - just to stop processing rules with lower priority

2. Priority 20, with Original code string Project % and destination automatic posting rows - to trigger when rule with higher sequence number is not applicable (i.e. when project is non-empty). 

I hope you have got the concept.

Thank you so much!!  I created the new rule with the same sequence, but different priorities as advised above, and it worked perfectly, as desired! I owe you on this one!  Posting the detailed screenshots of the setup and results in the event that someone else may have that same question/need to create an automated Posting Rule with specific code part conditions:

Priority 10 Setup (Project is BLANK and there are no Automatic Posting Rows defined):




​​​​​​Priority 20 Setup (Project is _% and there are Automatic Posting Rows defined):
 
RESULTS:  Only the invoice lines with Project Code Part Populated trigger the Automatic Posting Rule to reclass the invoice posting to new code parts.  The line on the invoice where the Project Code Part is NOT populated does NOT trigger the APR, thus functioning as desired.
