Symptom
The Actual Work in an Intercompany Project is not updated as expected when time bookings are performed by a service agent.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Project Management work center.
- Go to the Projects view.
- Open the Project ID ABC (ABC represents Project Id).
- Go to Work sub-tab.
The Actual Work is not updated in the Intercompany Project.
Cause
In standard system behavior:
- For normal projects, service agents can book time, and the entries are reflected in the project.
- For intercompany projects (ICP), only employees or service agents who is also an employee can book time.
If the time booking is made by a service agent without employee linkage, the actual work will not be updated in the Intercompany Project.
Resolution
To ensure Actual Work updates correctly in the Intercompany Project:
- Time bookings must be recorded by an employee, or
- By a service agent who is also an employee.
