Purchase Order Release Default GL Account Missing

Thank you! I've tried to program a button to automatically click, but never accomplished it. I now have a guideline to follow next time I want to do that...it's very much appreciated.

I know this thread is very old, but i was able to get this to work by creating code in the POEntry screen that executes after the user adds a POLine.  Once that's done, my code "clicks" the Get Defaults button to get the Default GL Account for the Release.

I declared the tab that the button was on b/c my code had to navigate to that tab before clicking the button.  After that I have code in both PORel and PODetail EpiViewNotifications:

private void edvPORel_EpiViewNotification(EpiDataView view, EpiNotifyArgs args)

{

if ((args.Row > -1))

{

System.Data.DataRow edvPORelTGLCRow = edvPORelTGLC.CurrentDataRow;

if (vDone < 1)

{

if (edvPORelTGLCRow == null)

{

vPanel.Focus();

rdButtonGetDtl.Focus();

rdButtonGetDtl.PerformClick();

vDone = vDone + 1;

vPanel2.Focus();

}

}

}

}


private void edvPODetail_EpiViewNotification(EpiDataView view, EpiNotifyArgs args)

{

if ((args.NotifyType == EpiTransaction.NotifyType.AddRow))

{

if ((args.Row > -1))

{

vDone = 0;

}

}

}

}


I hope this helps someone in the future.  I was a huge pain for me, so hopefully this spares someone.

I've received the same info and have the same results testing that you do. Our payables dept is still unhappy as they apparently double-check and often change the accounts. I'm working on a dashboard that shows the accounts linked to the PO (when get default is used or it's an "other" po line) or if no accounts are linked it shows the default account it will go to. If the accounting people can give me some "rules" I can put some BPMs in place to populate the class ID correctly for PO lines without parts. Worst case scenario for odd POs may be to make payables responsible for going into PO entry and populate the field so they can see if they need to change it. I also haven't tested far enough to know if the POs GL info is actually updated at a later point, possibly during WIP capture. They are used to looking at an old PO in PO tracker so see what account it went to. I still haven't given up on finding a way to force the method with a BPM. It's possible that after tracing thru a variety of POs that payables will decide the new way is ok, but from what they've told me that's a long shot!

In 9.05.607B when creating a new PO for an inventory part the G/L Account does not pull in automatically like it did on 8.03. You must hit the button called "Get Default" on the Release tab to default in a G/L account

Has anyone else experienced this? Do you have a way to make the G/L account default in?

Thanks
We see this sometimes, most POs have the GL account automatically, but
<1% have it missing. The GL account should default automatically (from
part class normally), and these POs have the same part class as ones
that work. We think it is related to the Duplicate PO function, and
have a help call in to Epicor about this. Epicor 9.05.607B same as
you.

I have an open ticket....

Hi Miguel,
Unfortunately there is no fix available right now,
What I can do is to keep this call open so you get an email notification when the service pack becomes available, this is now fixed on version 9.05.700 targeted to be released on April this year.

I was told by Epicor support that your posting rules drive this account now, so clicking the "Get Default" was just a performance hit. When the inventory wip recon report or capture cos/wip runs it fills it in anyway. The get default would just be for "other" purchases where you can actually override that account.



We did have to apply a fix due to missing GL numbers way back when we went live. Since that fix we haven't seen any missing GL #s.

Are you certain that support person wasn't trying to get rid of you? From what I gather, Epicor is only working on 9.05.7xx versions.

We are on 9.05.607B and are constantly told to upgrade (despite having just done so in June!)

FYI - We have been on 9.05.700B2 since last fall and this has always been a problem for us as well. And as far as I can gather it's still not fixed in 701.
Can anyone confirm this?
We had an independent Epicor consultant in here, who had a client with the same problem and they ended up putting a BPM in place to force the GetDefaultGL button click, which seems to work for them, however, I am struggling getting details on how to properly call this in our BPM.

Any advise anyone?

I can confirm that - NOT fixed in 701.

We went live on 701 a couple weeks ago from 9.05.606 and our Purchase Order person is NOT happy.

Does anyone know how to use BPM to force the Get Default GL?

Is there an SCR for this? We're preparing for Epicor 9 with 702; both payables and purchasing are NOT happy about this. We've never needed to use the release tab and I can't figure out how to force the button click either thru BPM or customization (although I'm still trying!). Thanks for any info anyone has on this.

I'm testing 702 now, we're upgrading from 9.04.507A. We have GL accounts defined by Part Class.

When I create a PO via Purchase Suggestions, the GL account is pulled correctly. When I create a PO manually, it is not and I have to use the "Get Defaults" button to pull it in.

I'll test it some more.

Replying to my own post (and this is on 9.05.702):

According to Epicor (and so far not contradicted by my own testing), this is only a matter of the GL account not DISPLAYING on the PO Release screen.

Again, we have GL accounts assigned to each Part Class, and if I manually create an Inventory PO, an Other PO, a Subcontract PO, or a Job Material PO, the correct GL accounts are hit each time (verified by printing an Inventory/WIP Reconciliation Report).

I haven't posted anything yet, but for now everything looks like its in the right place.

Got a call from D. Salinas at Epicor support, and according to her, this isn't a bug, it's a feature, originally implemented in 9.05.605.

Development made this change for performance reasons.

I've received the same info and have the same results testing that you do. Our payables dept is still unhappy as they apparently double-check and often change the accounts. I'm working on a dashboard that shows the accounts linked to the PO (when get default is used or it's an "other" po line) or if no accounts are linked it shows the default account it will go to. If the accounting people can give me some "rules" I can put some BPMs in place to populate the class ID correctly for PO lines without parts. Worst case scenario for odd POs may be to make payables responsible for going into PO entry and populate the field so they can see if they need to change it. I also haven't tested far enough to know if the POs GL info is actually updated at a later point, possibly during WIP capture. They are used to looking at an old PO in PO tracker so see what account it went to. I still haven't given up on finding a way to force the method with a BPM. It's possible that after tracing thru a variety of POs that payables will decide the new way is ok, but from what they've told me that's a long shot!

I know this thread is very old, but i was able to get this to work by creating code in the POEntry screen that executes after the user adds a POLine.  Once that's done, my code "clicks" the Get Defaults button to get the Default GL Account for the Release.

I declared the tab that the button was on b/c my code had to navigate to that tab before clicking the button.  After that I have code in both PORel and PODetail EpiViewNotifications:

private void edvPORel_EpiViewNotification(EpiDataView view, EpiNotifyArgs args)

{

if ((args.Row > -1))

{

System.Data.DataRow edvPORelTGLCRow = edvPORelTGLC.CurrentDataRow;

if (vDone < 1)

{

if (edvPORelTGLCRow == null)

{

vPanel.Focus();

rdButtonGetDtl.Focus();

rdButtonGetDtl.PerformClick();

vDone = vDone + 1;

vPanel2.Focus();

}

}

}

}


private void edvPODetail_EpiViewNotification(EpiDataView view, EpiNotifyArgs args)

{

if ((args.NotifyType == EpiTransaction.NotifyType.AddRow))

{

if ((args.Row > -1))

{

vDone = 0;

}

}

}

}


I hope this helps someone in the future.  I was a huge pain for me, so hopefully this spares someone.
