3400521 - Customer Project Expense List documents posted to a wrong period

Symptom

Customer Project Expense List documents are posted to a wrong period.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Supplier Invoicing work center.
  2. Go to the Invoices and Credit Memos view.
  3. In the dropdown, select "all Invoices", and search for Invoice ABC (ABC means the Invoice ID).
  4. Select the Invoice ABC.
  5. Go to View All.
  6. Go to Items tab.
  7. Open Cost Distribution tab.
    The Invoice has Account Assignment to project task: XYZ (XYZ means project task ID) (same for both Invoices). 
    However, when checking project task XYZ, on work Sub-tab, there is no Service Assigned to this.
  8. On project: For project DEF (DEF means project ID), by choosing Project Task XYZ, clicking on Display History on Work Sub-tab, Time Confirmation X (X means time confirmation ID) is assigned to this project task XYZ.
    Hence the difference of expense assignment is posted to a different date, because Time Confirmation X was assigned to XYZ.

Cause

For Project Task XYZ, checking on Work sub-tab, there's no Service Assigned.
On Project: For project ABC, it's possible to see when choosing Project Task XYZ, clicking on Display History on Work sub-tab, that Time Confirmation X is assigned to this task.

Resolution

The difference of expense assignment is posted to a different date, because Time Confirmation X was assigned to Project Task XYZ.
