Annata ISV Workorder posting/closing inconsistency

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 33
Hi all,

Is anyone else using Annata and experiencing inconsistencies with work orders not posting vouchers?

We’ve encountered an issue where work orders—whether closed via the batch closing process or manually—are not generating any notifications or errors, yet the WIP is not being posted. The work order status changes to "Closed," but the associated WIP still appears on the WIP report, indicating that posting hasn’t occurred. The only way to detect this seems to be by running the WIP report, which makes the issue particularly concerning.

We’ve noticed this issue occurring more frequently since upgrading from IDMS 10.1.2.910 to 10.1.2.915 in the latest Wave update.

Has anyone else observed similar behaviour? Any insights or workarounds would be appreciated.

Kind regards,

Phil

    Hi Phil,
    Yes, I think I have seen similar issue. The issue was linked to a change in how voucher posting triggers are handled during the batch closure process. Even though the work order status moved to “Closed,” the WIP voucher posting didn’t complete due to a silent validation failure.

    Here are a few things you can check:

     

    Make sure posting profiles and voucher setups are still valid post-upgrade.

     

    Look into the Annata batch job history or logs, we found that a couple of failed postings were silently skipped due to missing project/category setups.

     

    As a workaround, we now run a manual WIP voucher posting process for all closed orders flagged in the WIP report before month-end to catch any missed ones.

    Might be worth raising this with Annata support, it seems to be introduced in this wave.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks for you reply.  
     
    We have engaged Annata to look into this.  In our call with their support team last week it was also mentioned that this has been recurring for other customers. - WIP not getting closed and the difficulty to replicate when asked by Annata. The other customers will later say the issue seems to resolve by itself in subsequent closing attempts, but no-one is sure as to the how and why.  So appears this is an outstanding issue without a permanent fix.
     
    The good news is Annata has said they will investigate further and hopefully for us all, provide a permanent fix soon. :-)

    An update for anyone following this: 
     
    The Annata support team have spent 28hrs and have:
    • Replicated the issue/bug (in our environment)
    • Compared queries between the failed and successful scenarios but found no differences.
    • Confirmed that WIP calculation and posting are handled by standard Microsoft logic.
    • Debugged across ProjInvoiceId, ProjCostTrans, and AMCaseJournalPost_INT_Extension.
    • Captured a trace recording for analysis.
    Annata are continuing reviewing the code to determine if any Annata or customer-specific customizations are triggering additional WIP calculation or posting logic.
    They are also investigating the impact of work order status on the ability to close work orders, and whether it influences WIP posting behaviour.
     
    So in summary, no solution or answer yet, :-(   Fingers crossed for a solution from Annata soon that can be rolled out to all customers experiencing this issue. 
     
    Additionally, Annata did finally confirm a number of customers had reported this issue, but all elected to investigate on their own as any support from Annata would be billable. 
     
     
    Screenshot of email from Annata removed by a moderator as it contained an employee name from a person at Annata where it could not be verified if the person agreed to have this name visible on a public forum.
     
    Kind regards
    Phil.
