I have also requested that our company be added to the SCR's. We also add negative misc line charges in AR invoice entry on occasion. I hope the corrections cover this also.

Thanks for the info. I'm attaching our company to both also. We were taught by a Vantage consultant to use negative miscellaneous charges in AP to handle use tax expenses and accurals. We need it fixed ASAP or our monthly sales and use tax reporting is hosed!

We had a user set up a misc charge code called "special discounts" which was used as a sales "gift card" for a first time buyer as an incentive instead of putting a discount on the line level
Â
When we went to invoice,the posting engine could not handle the negative amount on the misc charge and would not balance. According to Epicor you should not use a negative misc amount on a misc charge
Â
Anyone else using negative amounts on misc charges?

We use negative misc amounts all the time. They worked until we went to
8.03.409 just a couple weeks ago and now we receive an error any time we
attempt a negative misc charge on either OE or Invoicing. I spoke with
Epicor support and they agreed it is a bug and have created SCR's to
correct the problem but it's not scheduled to be fixed until 8.03.411. I
have requested it be escalated and have been told it has been, but can't
seem to get a response on the status.

We use a negative misc line charge all the time when we give customers a concession or a promo discount. We did not test this yet in 409 since cycle counting did not work. I will definitely look into this now. That would create a huge problem for us.

The SCR numbers are 73781 for AP Misc Charges and 73643 for OE. If you
find the same problem in your testing you might want to attach your
company to these SCRs and see if we can get them fixed soon. We use them
for the same reason you do, special discounts, and it is causing a lot of
issues because we now have to include these in the discount or prepayment
fields so the customer doesn't see the "special" discount and the value
gets lumped in with everything else on the GL side where we used to be
able to track these separately.

Thanks for the input

Steven, I have not fully tested on credit memos but I believe yes, it is a problem overall with the posting engine not being able to handle a negative amount on a misc charge
Â
The error actually shows up on the GL Edit list report. Our Edit List would not print so I went into the system monitor and saw an error. When i clicked on details thats where the error told me the problem was a negative misc charge

Subject: Re: [Vantage] E9 - Negative Misc Charge Amount

We use negative misc amounts all the time. They worked until we went to
8.03.409 just a couple weeks ago and now we receive an error any time we
attempt a negative misc charge on either OE or Invoicing. I spoke with
Epicor support and they agreed it is a bug and have created SCR's to
correct the problem but it's not scheduled to be fixed until 8.03.411. I
have requested it be escalated and have been told it has been, but can't
seem to get a response on the status.

[Vantage] E9 - Negative Misc Charge Amount

We had a user set up a misc charge code called "special discounts" which
was used as a sales "gift card" for a first time buyer as an incentive
instead of putting a discount on the line level

When we went to invoice,the posting engine could not handle the negative
amount on the misc charge and would not balance. According to Epicor you
should not use a negative misc amount on a misc charge

Anyone else using negative amounts on misc charges?

Thanks for the info. I'm attaching our company to both also. We were taught by a Vantage consultant to use negative miscellaneous charges in AP to handle use tax expenses and accurals. We need it fixed ASAP or our monthly sales and use tax reporting is hosed!

My understanding is any where you can create a Misc Charge they now
prevent a negative amount. AP, AR, and OE that I know of.

Does this affect both invoices and credit memos?

I have confirmed with Epicor that this SCR number is the same for E9. This
fix is scheduled for 9.05.01 but I asked them to escalate as well in order
to see if a one off patch can be sent. If I hear anything i will let the
group know

The SCR numbers are 73781 for AP Misc Charges and 73643 for OE. If you
find the same problem in your testing you might want to attach your
company to these SCRs and see if we can get them fixed soon. We use them
for the same reason you do, special discounts, and it is causing a lot of
issues because we now have to include these in the discount or prepayment
fields so the customer doesn't see the "special" discount and the value
gets lumped in with everything else on the GL side where we used to be
able to track these separately.

We use a negative misc line charge all the time when we give customers a
concession or a promo discount. We did not test this yet in 409 since
cycle counting did not work. I will definitely look into this now. That
would create a huge problem for us.

Thanks for the information

I have also requested that our company be added to the SCR's. We also add negative misc line charges in AR invoice entry on occasion. I hope the corrections cover this also.
