Hi there,

When material is issued on a production order the system generates the following entry

Combination of Production and Issue

DR Work in Progress
CR Inventory

When material is issued on a project related production order the system generates following entries

Combination of Production and Transfer

DR Inventory (Negative Amount)
CR Project Delivery Interim Account (Negative Amount)

Combination of Production (SFC) and Material Cost

DR Work in Progress
CR Project Delivery Interim Account

What is the logic behind these entries? Also, I don't understand why system is generating entries with negative amounts for certain combination of transaction origin and financial transaction.

I would appreciate if someone can throw light on this issue.

Harish.

Some years ago I did get an explanation for this "backward" integration (Production/Inventory Transfer), from Baan but I cannot remember the answer as it was quite convoluted at the time. To avoid the creation of negative debits and negative credits you must set the field Negative Amounts Allowed in the Maintain Transaction Types to "No". This will then turn negative debits into positive credits, and negative credits into positive debits. This should be set this way for all integration transaction types.
