I have an issue with GRN when i create a PO or PR with Project ID assigned and making GRN then if i go to see item transactions there i can see two lines one inventory received and another one is deduction with same quantity.
i cannot understand why the system auto deducted from inventory when i was selecting project ID other wise it is fine and no auto deduction.
Please any one help me.
Hello Anumanar,
This is the standard behavior.
When you purchase items specifically for a project a inventory receipt is posted that increases your stock value and quantity.
At the same time another transaction is created that takes those received items immediately out of the stock and consumes it for your project.
Best regards,
Ludwig
Hi Ludwig,
yes, just i see your post to someone for same question.
i understand but if we go customize to restrict the auto deduction, is it effect any integration or disturb any functionality.
activally requirement is they don't want to auato deduction and later they can consumed based on the project requirement so please suggest me.

Anumanar
Hi Anumanar,
If you are using CU13 you can use the parameter control that if you want Item consumption at the time of Purchase orders or not. You can find that in Project management & accounting parameters under Project Purchase orders tab.
It would let you buy with the project reference but wont consume it unless you check it at the time of purchase invoicing.
Please mark YES if the answer was helpful. Thanks

thank you Ludwig,
Yes I can see in CU9 machine also. but how its work if i enable that filed item consumption to yes in project parameter under project purchase order.
right now it was disabled my system and deducting the inventory automatically while GRN
I would recommend not to make this modification because there are a couple of project parameters available that are related to those postings.
If you don't want to have the immediate consumption for the project create a PO without project relationship and later on when you need the items create a project item journal and consume them.

Hi Zain,
The parameter settings allow you defining whether the consumption shall be posted with the packing slip posting or the invoice. It does however - at least to my knowledge - not prevent that the items are consumed for the project.
What kind of parameter setting do you refer to that would completely prevent the consumption of the items purchased?
Yes Ludwig. it should be available in inventory only. not consumed automatically.
Yes, it does not prevents consumption for the item on a project. However, it only manages to not consume them while we receive/invoice a purchase order using project id.
And i don't think so Anumanar is asking for complete prevention of consumption of item, they don't want automatic consumption on purchase Receiving/Invoicing. This way it can be achieved.
Warm Regards,
You basically have two choices:
Option 1:
See Zain's notes where the consumption is posted when the PO invoice is posted. This can be achieved by a simple configuration.
Option 2:
Purchase the items as usual without a relation to a project. At the time you need the items, create an item journal and consume them.
Is your issue resolved or do you need further support in this? Thanks.
