Purchase and release order not allowed for TECO work orders

1303 Views

Hi

We are typically setting maintenance work orders to TECO once the physical work as been performed as that sets the reference date for showing the history of when the maintenance was performed, and when the maintenance call was completed. However, we have invoices that may come in significantly later than when the physical work was performed.

Once the order is in TECO a purchase or release order (for services against a contract) cannot be created for the work order. Additionally it appears that even if we have a release order,or purchase order, if it is not for the exact amount of the invoice the release or purchase order cannot be ammended - we get the sameerror mssage (BS007) as when creating a new purchase order for the TECO order.

I had wondered about using BS22 to change TECO to continue to allow purchase and release orders when the order is in TECO status.

Any input on pros/cons or other approachs appreciated.
