When a PO is created for an item designated as “Buy To Order” on the sales order, the GL Account on the PO Release is defaulting to our Inventory Acct (1151-00-01).
According to the Help text …
We don’t have any GLC’s setup for Part Classes, and the Part Class on the PO Line is blank, so condition 1 should not apply.
We don’t have any GLC’s setup for Suppliers, so neither 2 nor 3 apply.
The AP Account GLC in the Company Configuration specifies account (1154-00-01). Not the Inventory Acct (1151-00-01).
Shouldn’t the GL Acct in the PO Relese default to this account (1154), and not Inventory(1151)?
When I run the WIP/Recon Report, receipts of these Buy to Order items hit Inventory account(1151), and not the specified account(1154).
I believe IF the BUY-To-Order - is for a NON-STOCK part/on-the-fly part the system still use the EXPENSE Element as indicated in the OTHER type … however if the part is a STOCKED item - which happens to be BTO on this transactions, i guess the system treats it as an inventory purchase. but that is only a guess - i havent tested
First off, a stocked part (Qty Bearing = Y) will ALWAYS be a purchase type of “To Inventory”. The Part Class field becomes disabled (so you cant change it), And the GL Acct fields become disabled. To Invnetory will always use the following:
