Error description
Cancelling a purchase order in site A will cause a closed request for quotation (RFQ) in site B to be changed back to SENT status and the purchase order (PO) reference is removed from the RFQ if it is linked to a purchase order in site B with the same PO number as the one that is cancelled in site A. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1 Set default insert site BEDFORD 2 Go to Request for Quotations 3 Create a new RFQ, note the number (We got RFQ number 1012 / BEDFORD) 3.1 Add one or more RFQ Lines 3.2 Add one or more vendors 4 Change status of RFQ to SENT 5 Select RFQ Lines for one vendor, select all the lines 5.1 Enter unit cost for all lines 5.2 Award All 6 With the selected vendor click the Create PO button in Request for Quotations 6.1 Manually set a PO number, for example P100001 (We then have PO P100001 / BEDFORD created from RFQ 1012 / BEDFORD) 6.2 The status of the RFQ is automatically changed to CLOSE as all lines have been linked to a PO 7 Set default insert site DENVER 8 Go to Purchase Orders 9 Create a PO using the same PO number as the one used when creating PO from RFQ in the BEDFORD site (In our case the new PO is P100001 / DENVER) 10 Cancel the new PO in the DENVER site RESULT: The status of the RFQ in the BEDFORD site is automatically changed back to SENT with a memo message "Allowed to change from close to sent." and the link between the RFQ and the PO in the BEDFORD site is removed, even if the canceled PO is in a different site. EXPECTED RESULT: The RFQ status in the Bedford should not affected if we cancel the PO in Denver site. REPORTED IN VERSION: Tivoli's process automation engine 7.6.1.2
