Econnect Purchasing Invoice Entry creating distributions automatically

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 76

Hello,

I'm using eConnect to insert records into the Purchasing Invoice Entry screen (Matching Invoice). I set the header object to:

popInvHeader.CREATEDIST = 1;

but it is not automatically putting in the distribution accounts, it has one PAY line after importing. I checked the xml document and I do not see the CREATEDIST tag set to 1. I do see it being set via the object, but the finaly XML document omits this value. Not sure what's going on here, but we need both the PURCH and PAY line to be created automatically. I wonder if it has something to do with auto invoice and/or Auto Cost field.

I am using Auto Cost set to false, so I can set the line items. Did not set the Auto Invoice yet so it should be the default value.

thanks

    Hello Shannon,

    I am facing the same issue. On taPopEnterMatchInvHdr -->AutoCreate distribution is creating Purch Line getting populated.  

    Request you to please advice.

    Thanks much

    Hi Moony,

    Did you still need assistance with this thread? It could be related to a known issue if you are not getting the PURCH line populated if there is a variance on the invoice. Does it calculate the distributions if you click on the default button in distributions after the transaction has been integrated?

    I was able to import a standard PO and that created the PURCH line. The one that did not create the PURCH line automatically with CREATEDIST set to true was a blanket PO. I guess the question is do the types of the PO matter in automatically creating the distribution lines? Obviously the standard is ok and will create the distribution lines automatically. Drop ship and Blanket Drop ship? How would you create automatically the PO types that don't create the lines with CREATEDIST set to true? Would manually creating and setting via the distribution line object be the only way?
