Budget Analysis has double record in PO confirmation and Product Receipt

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi all,

I have an issue regarding the budget analysis report - in the budgeting module.

Currently I set up the ledger to be posted when product receipt is created.

Thus it will make the expense will be posted when product receipt and then it will be reversed and posted with the actual value when invoiced is created.

However the report in budget analysis acted improperly. 

It will record the PO confirmation as encumbrances, and then post actual value when product receipt without reducing the value from confirmation. This makes double record in the budget consumption (encumbrances + actual transaction). Although the encumbrances will be reversed when invoice is posted.

Is there any way to avoid this behavior?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

M.H.

    Dear M. Hasan,

    If i understood well, you have made AX to post to Budget when creating the receipt, right?

    However, we run Budget in this way:

    - PR would post to pre-encumbrance

    - PO - > encumbrance

    - invoice would reflect to actual

    I think it is wrong for the receipt to post to Budget, you should fix the Budget Dimension under Financial dimensions for the product receipt.

    Hi Kaled,

    Yes I understand that usually we will post the actual expense in Invoice. Which also align with the budget control report. But, in budget analysis report it act with different behavior. Since I set the parameter to post the ledger in product receipt transaction, Thus when I post the product receipt there will be actual expenses generated which is captured in the budget analysis report.

    For summary the differences are as below:

    Transaction Budget Control Encumbrances Budget Control Actual Budget Analysis Encumbrances Budget Analysis Actual
    PO 10.000 10.000
    Receipt (4.000) 10.000 10.000 4.000

    Invoice

    (4.000)

     6.000 4.000 6.000 4.000

    As you can see when there is product receipt transaction the budget will be consumed higher than the total PO. Which will cause incorrect information. And this issue will not only be occurred if we activate the posting ledger in product receipt. Because normally in the end of period, we will post the accrued expenses for the good/service that we have receipt although it has not been invoiced yet.

    Do you have any case like this before?

    Regards,

    M.H.

    Hello,

    What is the currency of the PO and the currency used by the user accessing to AX?

    Can you please attach screen shots from AX about Budget Control statistics report (Pre, encumbrance, and actual windows)

    Thank you,
