When a PO is created from the MO, the Inventory account on the drill back of the item is blank. The item is a service type. I can't seem to find in setup where to put the default inventory account so it comes in automatically.
If I just put the service item directly on a PO, the inventory populates with the Inventory account from the item card automatically, the issue is just with the PO when it is created from the MO.
Please let me know if you need additional information.

I'm having the same issue. I'm using WIP - Labor Fixed OH for outsourcing. Do I need to enter only this account number into the Costing account window next to WIP - Labor Fixed OH, or do I need to enter it elsewhere?
Thanks!
Hi Joe,
For outsource work or service item of Bill of material you should have main bill of material with a sequence for outsource and generate PO through that so that the outsource cost will be captured with correct account code along with other cost. Glad to hear that finally the mystery resolved.
Babu,
Thank you for your reply, this really got me thinking, I was putting the accounts on the Service Item and not the FG Item. As soon as I put the Accounts on the FG Item, it worked as expected.
Thanks again,
Joe
Hi Joe,
Can you please create a new item and fill in all accounts on both item level and costing and create bill of material of the same and create MO and try to create outsource po and receive the same and see whether the account is getting populated.
Ay other idea's. I am still struggling with this. I checked the settings in the Work Center, Routing and Labor Code and nothing is catching my eye.
Yes that is how I am doing it.
Hi Joe,
How are you creating your outsource PO, are you going to MO entry window and press purchasing on it.
Mine is set to Labor as opposed to Machine Variable Overhead, I did not think this would matter. The rest of the settings are the same.
Hi Joe,
Just to confirm, have you checked the WIP preference default suggested by Frank.
I gave that a try and the distribution is blank on the PO Receipt for PURC Type, which is where I am expecting an account to populate automatically.
