SYS21 - Re: SYS21 - PM & Non-stock Items

Peter,

First, what version and service pack are you currently running...?
I vaguely remember seeing a Support Alert on something very similar to what you
are describing...
Perhaps Answerlink can assist you directly...

Also, I do believe that the order class values are actually hard coded in
several programs thus explaining the different behavior you encounter in the
various programs...

  Subject      SYS21 -  PM & Non-stock Items
  :







I have encountered a problem whilst attempting to use PM for the purchase
of non-stock items.

If the Order Class is set to 8 during purchase order entry and a landed
cost (e.g. CC for carriage) is entered against a line, although the landed
cost is shown correctly against the line at this stage, when it is booked
in no landed cost is associated with the line. 13/PMP then shows no landed
cost against the line, but DOES include a landed cost in the control totals
window (F16). Perhaps significantly, 42/PMP and line amendment does still
show a landed cost, but the derived value is now zero.

This phenomenon is not manifest when using order class 1.

Why aren't the landed costs being used for orders with an order class of 8,
but are being used OK for orders with an order class of 1?

Second question: whilst I see that the order class descriptions - ORDC -
are maintained in 1/PMM, what is it that controls the other effects of the
different order classes - class 1 results in different prompts from class 8
on screen 2 of 41/PMP - class 1 asks for supp ref & item code, whereas
class 8 prompts for supp ref & GL code and doesn't prompt for full text?
