Business Portal Time Sheet approval error.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Using Business Portal to process Employee Time sheets into GP Project Accounting.

When approving the time sheet we get this error:

 Processing Failed for XXXXXXXXXXX: You are not allowed to have Negative Actual Quantity.

We have checked the data on the time sheet and everything looks good.

Any Thoughts?

Thanks,

Andy

    Andy,

    What version of Business Portal are you using?  The surest thing to do in this case is turn off automatic processing for Business Portal Project Time and Expense.  You can do that by running the following sql script in your company db's.

    update PmaTimesheetConfig set AutomaticProcessing = '0'

    This will require you to process your timesheets in PDK before they are moved into GP.

    If you'd like to follow the same pattern for expense reports, run the following.

    update PmaExpenseReportConfig set AutomaticProcessing = 0

    Thanks

    Hi Rob,

      That kind of defeats the purpose of having a fully integratred system. That solution is not acceptable, sorry.

    Andy,

    I can certainly understand your frustration.  Due to the number of number of issues that can be encountered, we now have the blanket statement I mentioned above (turn off processing and use pdk).  

    Is this a new implementation or one that has been used for awhile?  I'm trying to understand if automatic processing has ever worked or not.

    BP PTE is calling an eConnect stored procedure, so you can certainly try a sql profile to better understand the issue.

    Thanks

    Rob
