    Thank you all for the quick responses, much appreciated.  As I continued my analysis I knew that the categories were correct, but the problem was that the user selected an incorrect procurement category, this triggered the error. Once we selected the correct category, the user was able to submit the requisition.

    Hi,
    Can you provide more information, such as detailed screenshots or related steps? This looks like the relevant configuration is missing from the system. You can check the related configuration of the project where the error prompts, and check whether there are account settings related to the project, the project group of this project.
    Best Regards,

    Hi,
    Have you tried replicating this error in a test/demo Environment? If so, can the workflow be processed there?
    You can refer to this old thread that there are other users who have encountered similar issues: No account number exists for account type wip cost value for project (dynamics.com). The first thing that needs to be done is to verify under Project management and accounting > Setup > Posting > Project groups, for the project group used in your transaction, if you have a ledger account setup under the Revenue Accounts fields group > Invoiced Revenue. If not, please set them up.
    Best regards,
    Kevin

    Hi Community User,
     
    Can you provide some more information? Is this a purchase requisition linked to a project? Do you have correct project posting setup? Have you checked if the account structures are setup correctly in case the project posting setup is correct?
