WBS in PO getting empty after saving

Hi,

issue is that a PR is created which converts to a PO, this PO hasa WBS in account assignment.

Later the same PR's G/L account field is changed and saved, again the PR is converted to PO, but this time the WBS field gets empty.

We checked the PO history and can find that second time when PR was changed with G/L, the WBS field gets empty.

Could any one tell me why such thing happens, is it a Business Process.

Appreciate your help.

Aditya

Hi Aditya,

A possibility is that the WBS that you have assigned in the PR is not allowed to the G/L account that is changed in the PR.

Check the G/L account that needs to have the WBS and try again.

Hi Sandra,

now thats a good hint to start with as I also presumed that, that G/L didnt cost to that WBS.

Am a technical guy, appreciate if you could make me understand how this could be done

That is how do I check G/L account that needs to have the WBS.

Thanks,

Aditya

Hi Aditya,

Check if the G/L account changed allows the WBS element.

For that, make the following steps:

1.- Go to FS00 with your GL account and company code.

2.- Select the tab "Create/bank/interest" and check the field status group.

3.- Go to OBC4 and select the field status variant.

4.- Select the folder "Field status group" and double click in the field status group that is assigned in your G/L account.

5.- Select "Additional account assignments".

6.- Check if WBS element field is Optional or Mandatory.

Let me know your results.

Kind regards,

SP

Hi Sandra,

well, I checked in the system and it shows for that Field Status, the WBS Element is Optional.

What does that indicate?

Appreciate your help.

Hi Aditya

Is this for the second G/L account? That is mean, for the G/L account that is changed.

Do you have something custom in this transaction?

Kind regards,
