Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Cost and Revenue work center.
- Go to the Periodic Tasks view.
- Click on the Revenue Recognition subview.
- Select the revenue recognition run XYZ. (XYZ represents revenue recognition run ID).
- Select the Processed with Errors sub-tab.

Cause
Not all fix-price sales order items connected to project ABC use accrual method 108 - Recognize using cost-to-cost project POC. However, as all project cost and revenue is bundled into one leading sales order item, all fix-price items of the same project must use accrual method 108 (ABC represents the project associated with sales order item XX-YY).
Resolution
- In the Sales Document Items view of the Cost and Revenue workcenter open the advanced search.
- Under Related Documents, in the Project ID field enter ABC.
- Under Accounting Data filter for Revenue Type 3 - Project Sales (Fixed Price).
- Press Go.
Now ensure that accrual method 108 is assigned to all fix-price sales order items.
