Posted on by 47

Hello Experts, 

I have been assigned a task that make the user experience easier. The task is that I want to select multiple Item Charges  

pastedimage1683099490961v1.png

then use the Item Charge Assignment Action (Or a custom action), Get Receipt Lines, Suggest Item Charge Assignment ... , Once each, so for that when we have like 10 charges the user will have much easier process, is there any recommendation to do this task?

Thanks, in advanced. 

Ziyad.

    Basically You need to understand the steps You would normally do manually, and then if it the manual process is always the same (in all scenarios) You can develop a new button that would do this in the loop (going through all Item(Charge) lines.

    If there can be different scenarios how amount is assigned between lines, then You would need to add this logic in the process.

    I assume You always want to assign to the lines in the same document, not previously posted receipts/shipment lines.

    Hi Ziyad - I think this may defeat the whole purpose of the Item Charge Assignment Calculation feature. What if there are 10 receipt lines, how do you plan to allocate it with 3 charge lines? What will be the calculation based on? (Weighted Average, Volume, etc.). Before proceeding ahead in developing, I suggest understand such scenarios via Excel first, it helps

    Also, system will not allow you to post the invoice if your item charge assignment does not match the total qty on each line. Please do revisit the requirements once, I do not think what you're doing will "ease" any user experience, rather it may disrupt accounting operations if the customization has any bugs under any use-case, which may not have been tested earlier, the user will end up allocating entries one by one manually
