Project Budget consumption for Purchase Order generating for Shop Order outside operation

When a Shop Order is connected to a Project, the Shop order transactions will be pre posted for the project,

Similarly any subcontracting cost incurred for the Shop order are also pre posted to project through shop order SUBCONTR Transactions.,

If we allow the purchasing transactions to be pre posted. it will cause the subcontracting costs to be posted twice.

Because when an outside operation is completed,

First it creates corresponding ARR-NONINV transactions in the Purchase Transaction history

Then these Transactions are copied to Operation History as SUBCONTR transactions with identical Costs , these are the transactions responsible for Shop Order WIP.

If we allow Pre-postings for Outside Purchase Order;

We will end up with 2 sets of Transactions with Identical value for the same receipt as below;

1, SUBCONTR Transactions in Operation History

2. ARR-NONINV transactions created in the “Purchase Transaction History”

To avoid this, it had been decided only to pre-post the Transactions created in the Operation history.

This decision was implemented by BUG 66431 in APP7 Track by 19-10-2007
