RE: Purchase Order Release Process

Jeff,

It could be EPDM but not likely since the first pass is correct
and the second drops records. The apar below seems really strange
but you dont have it since it is MAPICS APAR/PTF SC61206/03339.
The changed lines in the letter look strange and obviously something
like the report of the problem should not be present in R6 ptf 3000+.
I wonder if it has to do with the order splitting code they tossed
in as an "enhancement" recently?

In Inventory Management, Error message RPG1211 was issued from
    program AMI4N on file ORDREV when Purchasing and MRP was
    installed.

    Program AMI4N has been changed to only read the ORDREV file when
    the program is called from MRP.

MAPICS APAR/PTF SC61206/03339 looks bad as well since it updates
INVFG...except that INVFG is also in the ITEMASA file...

In the Material Requirements Planning application, when
    releasing a requisition through MRP the inventory flag(INVFG) in
    the requisition header file(REQHDF) is not being set correctly
    when EPDM is installed.

Lots of changes in both these modules say the release process needs
a thorough QC pass. Even at the level you are at there are 7 more fixes
downloadable. I am assuming they had you download the latest levels of
both which would include the strange stuff above?

Given the stability issues we have had after converting to R6 I have
decided to apply fixes 1 by 1 past 2624 and review the apar letters to
see if the change makes sense. Way to fast a change rate for what should
be a mature release.

Regards

Konrad
