When we create a purchase order from a shop order that is connected to a project, the inventory module is not associating the receipt of those purchase orders with the project. Then when the material is issued to the shop order the inventory module doesn’t associate the material with the project. However, the finance module is able to make the connection of the purchase order receipt but doesn’t recognize the connection when the material is issued to the shop order. This is resulting in the finance module and the project management module to think there is still project inventory on hand. Which leads the project management module to show greater than actual cost for the project and a warning when trying to close the project.
Does anyone know if we are missing a connection or a step in the work process?
