Project Accounting Module and Purchase orders

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Is anyone well versed on the relationship between Purchasing and Project Accounting. My client's question is as follows:

I recently noticed that when any change is made to a PO it changes the status to “change order”.  As long as the PO is in “change order” status the committed dollars do not show up on the project module.
Is this as designed? Change order to me indicates something on the PO has changed (due date, QTY, cost , etc. )Not that it is no longer valid.

I am unsure of the intended purpose does anyone know exactly or is there more information needed or possibly a setting to control this? Thanks.

    Hi Nancy,

    Change order on Project? Then you need to use "Change Order " screen in Project Accounting.

    Project Accounting and PO is integrating with each other but to make Project Change order you need to use Change Order screen - Project Accounting>Change Orders.

    This way you can track changes orders in your Project.

    Thanks

    Nancy, wondering out loud here, is it possible that the same rules apply with PO in Project as they do in the rest of the system, that being it is not 'Payable' until goods or services have been received against the PO.

    I think you are correct in assuming that 'change order' status on the PO means that something has changed and that it is not cancelled, however, I am not sure enough on the Project side to know if the dollars would be removed.

    I would be interested to know - I have not tested - if the dollars of an OPEN (status) PO show up in Project Accounting.

    I know for sure that they do not show in Purchasing Vendor as an open invoice until something is transacted - but I will test on Project.
