Re: OSP quantities getting doubled

I appreciate yours & Kevin's comments.

We are running XA R6, and are NOT running the Integrated OSP feature.
We reviewed that feature, but Mfg & Purch did not want to change their 
process.
We have using the 'traditional OSP method' for well over a decade.

I've discovered that the AP transactions started on 08/31/01.  The 
significance
of which eludes me!  :) 

In reality I think everything is functioning correctly, just a matter of 
figuring out
the best method for achieving the positive aspects of both activities.

I'm going to talk to MAPICS as well.

Thanks.

Re: OSP quantities getting doubled






If I recall well there was a fix quite a while ago in R5.5 to adress this,
since R6 it is put in the PCC control file.  The fix changes what gets
updated the moment you do a invoice entry.  Check out SH14754 around OOUP 
as
well, it is also related to this issue.  First thing to start checking is
your level and whether or not you use the integrated outside operations.
