Symptom
Expense Items for Migrated Purchase Orders are being created without the flag 'Goods and Services Receipt Expected' in the marked.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
Migration:
- Go to Business Configuration Work Center.
- Go to Implementation Projects View.
- Select respective Implementation Project and click on Open Activity List.
- Go to Integrate and Extend tab.
- Search and open the activity 'Migration of Purchase Orders'.
- Click on 'Migrate purchase orders using the migration tool'.
- Upload the Migration File.
- Execute the Migration.
Purchase Order:
- Go to Purchase Requests and Orders Work Center.
- Go to Purchase Orders View.
- Search and open Purchase Order ABC (ABC represents the ID of the Purchase Order).
- Click on View All.
- Go to Items Tab.
- Select the respective Expense Item.
- See that the flag 'Goods and Services Receipt Expected' is not marked.
Cause
Currently for the Expense items the Goods Receipt Expected indicator is always set to false for migrated Purchase Orders. This issue occurs only for the Expense items and not for any other item type.
Resolution
As a workaround, you can manually go to Purchase Orders migrated and select the check box for Goods Expected and trigger Send Update, as per following steps:
- Go to Purchase Requests and Orders Work Center.
- Go to Purchase Orders View.
- Search and open Purchase Order ABC (ABC represents the ID of the Purchase Order).
- Click on View All.
- Go to Items Tab.
- Select the respective Expense Item.
- Mark the checkbox for 'Goods and Services Receipt Expected' flag.
- Click on Send Update button.
Another alternative would be to build an add-on to update the Purchase orders in the system.
This behavior is planned to be changed in a future release.
