IV25791: PURCHASE CONTRACT CANNOT BE CREATED FROM PR FOR STANDARD SERVICES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a PR is created with a Standard Service, the PR Line
  includes the
  Item Number for the Std Service.  However, when you try to
  create a
  Purchase Contract from it, the Item Number is not brought over
  and an
  error message is received saying no item number is available.
  
  I reproduced issue on 7.1.1.10 + Oil&Gas 7.1.2.0
  
  
  Steps:
  1. PR app, create a new PR 83921, on PRLines tab add a new row
  for a
  standard service (line type), item= ELEV, order unit=EACH.
  Save.
  2. Purchase Contracts app, create a new contract 83921, Select
  Action |
  Copy PR Lines to Contract, filter for the PR created above
  and select it then click OK ---> get error  BMXAA3262E - Item
  number is
  required for this line type.
  
  NOTE:
  If , while still in PR app, you click Select Action | Create
  Contract
  then the contract is created correctly (including item
  number) and no error message is displayed.
  

Local fix

• In PR app, you click Select Action | Create
  Contract
  then the contract is created correctly (including item
  number) and no error message is displayed.
