1859679 - Tolerance percentage on Purchase Order is not copied from Purchasing Contract

Symptom

You have set the over-delivery tolerance on a contract, but the over-delivery tolerance carried over to a purchase order originating from a project is different from the defined percentage.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Purchase Requests and Orders work center.
  2. Go to the Purchase Orders view.
  3. Open the affected document.
  4. Verify the over-delivery tolerance.
  5. Go to the Sourcing and Contracting work center.
  6. Go to the Contracts view.
  7. Open the associated contract.
  8. Verify the over-delivery tolerance is different from that of the Purchase Order.

Cause

The purchase request of the associated purchase order has a reference to a project purchase request so Project purhcase order details should be given priority as it is the preceding document.

Resolution

If the purchase request of the affected purchase order has a reference to a project purchase request, the over-delivery tolerances are copied from the purchase request, and not from the contract.
