I appreciate this is an unusual set of circumstances but has anyone come across this? 

-Add demand to project with Supply code of Shop Order

-Create SO via Create Project Supply

-In Shop Orders screen, duplicate this shop order - give it a different ID - save

At this point, project connection and pre-postings are correct.  In fact, both Shop Orders have the same PreAccounting ID (you know what’s coming...)

-Delete original shop order

Remaining, newly created by duplication (same scenario if copied/pasted) shop order has now lost it’s project pre-posting/connection to activity but still shows source as ‘Project’.

We can understand why - both SOs had the same PreAccounting ID so delete the SO with that PreAccounting ID and you don’t have that detail any more - but don’t believe the PreAccounting IDs should be the same.  Should there be some refresh/reallocation of PreAccounting ID on save of newly created/duplicated shop order?  

We’re on 23R1.10 but have the same scenario in 24R1.10.  

We have raised a ticket to IFS Support but wonder if anyone else has come across this?
