Why doesn't the "Project" field get populated in the Receivables file (tfacr200) from Big Project ?
Otherwise, how can you tell the project from the recievable?
Any ideas?:confused:

Hi Phil

Our project field is always filled in tfacr200, so long as the invoice was generated from the project (tppin) module.

regards.

tppin is Big Project invoicing, isn't it?
If so, that's helpful, as I'm not getting the same result. Could you let me know your Baan version.
This will help when I'm having my "discussion" with Baan.

Hi Phil

I second what sajit says, although it appears he uses maintain revenues as opposed to project invoicing (yes, tppin is 'big project' invoicing). We too are using Baan IV c4.

Hmmm...
We're implementing on 5.Oc and I can't find tpprc2810m000. Could you give me the session description so I can try and dig it out?
Thanks for your help, though, guys.

Hi Phil.

It is one of the sessions in the Project link to finance where you specify which accounts to debit and credit when generating revenues on a project. This particular session is 'Maintain ledger accounts', which opens up a whole host of session options accessed by buttons on the right. I don't think your probleis here though.

Yes, I don't think this is it either. In 5.0c all the account code mappings are in the financial integrations part of the general ledger.
Thanks for the help though, knowing the functionality worked in Baan IV has led me to log the issue with Baan Support as a bug.

I have talked to Baan support. Basically, this field is not populated in Baan 5 and there is no intention to populate it. This is because:
1. It is not used by the system anywhere
2. Multiple projects can be consolidated onto one invoice
3. The field length is less than the field length for project number in the projects module!!!
This makes the report writing more complicated as you have to link back through the invoice records.

Anyway, thanks for the discussion, it's reassuring to know there's some project finance users out there.
