Hi All,
I am having a problem with budget checking on a purchase order, where the budget available amount does not take into account actual expenditure.
Transaction:
Total Budget: $30 000
Entries already posted to the main account: $6 000
Purchase Order: $28 000
Budget check performed = Budget check OK
This is incorrect, and the budget check should calculate an overbudget amount of $4 000.
The PO is a source document selected for budget control.
The $6 000 transaction was posted using a daily journal, which is not a source document applicable to budget control. However, I would still expect the budget funds available calculation to take the actual amount already posted in account?
The environment was recently upgraded, and this new feature: Only track amounts in the budget funds available calculation is now on by default. Could this be the cause, or is there any other reason this could be occurring?
The budget inquiries also differ on the total column:
Budget analysis inquiry:
- Budget $30 000
- Actual expenditure: $6 000
Actual versus budget inquiry:
- Budget $30 000
- Actual expenditure: $6 000
Budget control statistics:
- Budget funds available: $30 000
- Actual expenditure: $0
