Bill Posting to AP But Not GL?

Hey there - Upon reconciling our AP balance sheet account. For the first time, we are having a discrepancy. We noticed that starting in March, there are bills that got posted to AP but not to the GL. They were coded and treated the same as all the other ones. These bills have been paid and everything and still haven’t hit the GL. Anyone know of this issue and why this could be happening?

Require Single Project per Document

General contractor here. I was told by a trainer that we needed to select the “Require Single Project per Document” spec in AP Preferences. I don’t remember the reason, but when we enter bills, it makes our lives much more difficult to enter AP bills one project at a time. Is there any reason deselecting this option would be a negative thing? Thanks,Hannah

Reversing Pay Application and AIA Report is Now Off

Hi there! I reversed a pay application because it got rejected. I applied a credit memo to the original invoice. NOW - the pay application is showing like I still billed it and that it was never reversed. This is throwing my payment application totally out of whack. Does anyone know what I can do to rectify?

Change Request Log

Has anyone found or created a change log, similar to what you would print out for discussion at weekly OAC meetings? I am trying to avoid using Excel spreadsheets, but unless I can find something in Acumatica I might be back to that.

Remove/Hide all Records from Cost Code Selection

Hi,If a user has selected a incorrect account (which is not available in the relevant account group) in a data entry form for a specific project(Bill ,GL Transaction, Invoice), in the cost codes selection window there will no cost codes available in the project codes filter. In this case, users move to the all records and select the cost code which create an additional cost budget line with a default cost code. When creating this kind of transaction system shows a warning but allowed to process further.How can we stop processing this kind of transactions. Thank you,Dulanjana

Does Acumatica support 9/80 work weeks in the Projects Module?

I have a Dynamics SL client that is looking at Acumatica. They are a project based client and utilizes a 9/80 work week schedule for their project employees. I can’t find any documentation for this on the Acumatica website. Does anyone know if this is native functionality or an ISV solution I can review?Thanks, Jim Gross

Architects project managers

Has Acumatica had any experience with project management firms using the product (more specifically architect project managers for the retail shopping centers) I.e. Walmart, K-Mart etc. Important that Payroll (timecards) is linked to the project management system. So that automation can be built in and give them a true project position under/over at any given time (without having to account for payrolls in a third party system and have projects looking healthy until pays are factored in)High volume projects +350 per year & 100 running at any given time.

Need to add project attribute as a data source for the Project Reports - PM

We have created two attributes on projects to use for selecting and filtering reports. I have created a Unit Set for use with these reports and have tried to link to a data source that will pull from the project attribute list in the multi select set of values for the attribute. I can find no way to link the values in the list associated with the attribute to the report. Are there Acumatica resources that can be contracted with to create custom reports?

Commitment Change Order with Retainage

I have a commitment created in Procore, synced to Acumatica, and released. Let’s say it’s for $10,000 with 10% retainage or $1,000.We need to issue a change order and reduce the commitment value to $500. I’m getting an error when trying to release the change order:“The change order cannot be released because the line total of the Subcontract will go negative.”I believe the issue is that the retainage is excluded from the line total. So I cannot create a change order that will reduce the amount to less than $1000, which is the same value as the retainage on the original subcontract. Any ideas on how I can proceed?Thanks, Colm

Delivery Docket (shipment confirmation equivalent) for Projects

We run many projects (we make windows and doors and each houselot is a project) At the end of each project we are struggling to track what has been delivered to site and what has not. We currently make a PDF of all the items that were part of the project and store it as a file on the project with the name “Delivery Docket” but updating this is a pain. It would be ideal if there was some way to have “Output Items” per project, that when each item is delivered, it is somehow “shipped” from the project so that we can easily see what is left to be delivered - is there an easy way to do this?if it were possible, then it would be easy to make a delivery manifest straight out of Acumatica/MYOBA

Add new status value to Service Contracts

I need to add two new status values of "Billed" and “Expired” to the Service Contracts screen.1) Is the list of Service order status values exposed as a preference in Acumatica?2)Can new status values be added through a customization?3) Would the addition of new status values impact related Service order business rules? Thank you in advance.Ken Severud

How were journal entries for multiple subaccounts booked to single cash account?

While trying to clean-up books, cannot get journal transactions booked to cash account with different subaccounts than defined on cash account. Read that cash account is one-to-one relationship with subaccount, so saw that solution may be to create new cash accounts with the not defined subaccount to clean-up, but concerned that cash account configuration has not changed yet we have transactions that are said to be impossible and are now erroring after upgrade to 2021R2. How could this have happened?
