I had a project. For a service item, we created a category AB and defined the posting on Cost tab . I gave some account 123.

Now I did the PO for the project. Performed confirmation, packing slip and invoice. Now we did the post costs to the Project.

When I check the voucher i am seeing wrong account number 77 posting for Project-Cost.

For the category AB, on ledger posting i removed everything and tried to do same thing. It didnt throw me error. Instead it posted to same 77 account number of Posting Type: Project - Cost.

I am not sure why is this happening? Any ideas? Why is it posting to wrong account 77 instead of 123? Also if i deleted all records from type Cost for this category , when i tried to post why is it not throwing error and instead posting to 77 ?

I am not seeing any option to mark it as verified. Can you tell me how to do that?

Generally i see the option if someone answered my question i can see yes or no below their answer. But for the answers that i posted , i am not seeing that option. So not sure how to make it as verified. Please see attached snapshot what i am seeing for an answer. There is no yes or no button. Please help me how can i mark it as verified. thanks.

I found the issue. The transaction shows Project-Cost. But its actually picking the account number from Cost Accounts > Cost - Item. But not from Cost Accounts > Cost.

When the transaction says i keep looking at Cost Accounts - Cost which is misleading.

So this issue is resolved by adding Account number that it should hit under - Project Category > ledger Posting Setup > Cost Accounts > Cost - Item.

@Ludwig Reinhard

Service item i used is a non stocked item

I created a category for this service item and in the ledger posting > Cost Accounts > Cost > I added account 123 (Actual 50330)

Like i said I created PO, Received it, Invoiced it and posted costs to Project.

Now i went to Project > Posted Transactions and selected the record for PO

Then i clicked on View Voucher I see below records.

If you see the last record in below voucher transactions grid, it says Project -Cost as Posting Type. But the account number i gave in above snapshot is different.

Hi,

The service item that you used is that a stocked or a non-stocked item?

Where exactly did you setup account 123?

Can you share the voucher that you see together with the accounting setup that you made?

Some screenprints would help here.

Many thanks and best regards,

Ludwig
