Why is there an asterick('*') in POP30300 for PO shipping receipts?

Why for all PO shipment receipts the value of POP30300.BCHSOURC is '*Rcvg Trx Entry' whereas for invoice matching it is 'Rcvg Trx Ivc'.  I thought the asterick ('*') was used as an indication that something went wrong during posting.

    Well, one way to fix that is to not allow Transaction level posting. :)

    Richard some time ago, some one was testing the process - told the user to 'test the posting by removing the transaction from the batch and post it' to make sure it works.

    Someone wrote that down and it has been passed down the ages as the only way to do the work.

    "True story" only it really happened to me.

    Have a good weekend.

    Well that would explain why all the imported batches are empty all the time. They are deleting the batch ID and posting them as online transactions. Why in heavens name they do that is a mystery.

    Richard-

    I did a quick search about this and Victoria Yudin had answered this a long time ago in another forum post:

    "An asterisk in the beginning of a batch source and a batch ID that is a user ID simply means that the user did not save their transaction into a batch before posting.  There is nothing wrong with these transactions and this is allowed behavior in GP.  

    If posting was interrupted, and the posting was not able to recover on its own, first steps are typically  to run check links and/or reconcile."

    I hope this helps.
