Problem with base and target document

Hi all,
My customer is telling me that the "copy to AR invoice" function in the sales order doesn't link the documents together (but randomly).
Have you ever seen this before ? If yes, what was the scenario ?
Thanks
Charles

Hi!
You can reproduce the issue by
1. Copy the Sales Order to AR Invoice
2. Cut the Customer Code
3. Click on some other filed in header
4. Paste the Customer code again
5. You can notice the Base Document Icon get greyed out, which means you lost the document connectivity.
This is the behaviour in SAP B1 of all version and patches, this is not a bug.

Broken Link between Base and Target document in 'Copy To' option

Hi Folks,
One of our client has been facing a peculiar issue. When the 'Copy To' function is used to Copy document from Sales Order to Delivery and recently one instance of 'Copy To' from Delivery to A/R Invoice ,the base document got copied to the target document in each case but there was no trace of any Base Ref. left in the Target document( either in row level or Remarks), thereby the link between the Base and Target document got broken.The Base document remains with status as open.The same base document when tried again to 'Copy To', it creates the link between Base and new Target document.
This instance had occurred recently 3- 4 times in a span of 3 months or so. In normal circumstance this never happens. The client is pretty sure they have used 'Copy To' option to copy the document from Base to Target.
Any hints or possible reasons if one can highlight would be appreciable.
The current version used is SAP B1 8.82 PL11 and it was upgraded more than a year back.

Bharath

Hi,
All the data in Sales Order and Delivery are matching one to one in terms of row details,
and Document header level.
The missing data was Base Ref. data and Del.Date didn't get copied from base to target as shown in screen shot.
Also i have checked it earlier regarding change of target document row details like changing item, but this will only remove the link of that particular row and remaining row link remains intact, but in this case there are many items and it doesn't seem user will have changed in all the rows.

Question about base and target document

Dear All,
Does anyone know which table maintain the relationship between base and target document.
For instance, user clicks the base document in the form of AR invoice and return the base sales order.
From Samson

Hi,
In each and every document table the base docs and the target docs information is stored.
Just take a look at the REF DB help file in which u can see the fields and their relations.
For AR Invoice in the lines table INV1 there are 3 fields BaseRef,BaseType,BaseEntry these fields help u in knowing the base doc details, and for the target doc details the following fileds will help, TargetType,TrgetEntry.
U can find the reference file at the following location. C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One SDK\Help\REFDB.chm

Reconnect base and target document if duplicate marketing document

How can you reconnect the links between the base and target documents when you duplicate marketing documents?
For example, an error was made during the entry of the GR PO and we performed the Goods Return. However, when you create a Goods Receipt PO and then a Goods Return, the original PO is now closed. How can you re-open the original PO or else link a new target document to it?
Thank you.

Thats right. You can create a new business process for Exceptions and exceptions have to handled as a one off situation.
I would suggest you take measures to minimize the error by putting business rules in place and for these one off situations simply type in the PO / SO number in the remarks.
Creating all document is a big efforts.

Linking Base and Target document

Hello Experts,
                               How to Link 2 user defined forms as Base and Target document. Like it is done for Sales Order and Sales Invoice.
Quick Reply will be very helpful
Please Suggest

Hello Manish
Basically it is not possible by default, but you can code the logic behid.
I am recommend to use linkedbuttons for drill down, and when the linked button is pressed, you can stop the event, and open your user defined form.
here is a sample code for itemevent. I have a matrix, where i have used linkedbuttons in columns. On Col4 i have my object defined, so when the matrix link pressed i am opening my form.
Now You can define some Base and Target Document types and keys stored in the database, and you can open your documents by this.
Please note: Base and Target documents menus (in toolbar) will not work, because you cannot enable/disable them from SDK.
Case SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_MATRIX_LINK_PRESSED
                If (pval.BeforeAction = False) Then
                    oMatrix = otmpform.Items.Item("3").Specific
                    oMatrix.GetLineData(pval.Row)
                    Select Case pval.ColUID
                        Case "COL4"
                            sCode = otmpform.DataSources.UserDataSources.Item("COL4").Value
                            Call StoragePlacesEX.CreateoStoragePlaceForm(otmpform)
                            Call StoragePlacesEX.GetData(otmpform, sCode)
                    End Select
                End If

Activate Base and Target Document menu's

Hi all,
i am facing a problem, i have added a new form and know i want want to activate Base Document and Target Document menu's of system for my form but when i am doing
oForm.EnableMenu("5898",True)
the system throws an exception that menu not found.
can any body please tell me that is there any way to enable these menu's for user forms
Thanks..

Hi Manu,
In B1, only when target and base documents arre present for a particular Sales/Purchase document, the menu target doc and base doc menus are enabled. otherwise it will not be enabled. Since this is disabled by the system, when you try to activate the system disabled menu it throws an error.
Hope this helps.

Add ability to reconnect base and target documents

Hello,
One major issue we keep running into (and is a major headache for us) is when we have created, say, a Purchase Order from a Sales Order and have to change something on the Purchase Order. If we change anything on the line item, SAP loses it's connection back to the Sales Order and unless we recreate the Purchase Order again, we have lost that link (other than adding it into the remarks field). We think the base/target document functionality is great, but this breakdown really gives us problems. Often, we can't actually recreate the Purchase Order because cleaning that part of things up with our vendors is often a mess.
Anyways, this is one of our major issues that we would like to see addressed. Even just making the base or target doc field on the line item editable would do the trick.
Thanks for your consideration,
Brent McDonell

Hi,
But I tested in SBO 2005A SP01 PL45, the link between sales order and purchase order which is based on sales order would not be broken.
When you add a sales order, you could tick the box 'Purchase Orders' in Logistics tab. Then when you click on Add button, the purchase order confirmation windwo will pop up. In this window you can change quantity, price, vendor, and so on. And even you have added this purchase order, you still can edit and update it under purchase order window. But either editing above won't break the link between the sales order and purchase order. You can see the remarks in purchase order, the line information about base document in purchase order and you also could open based sales order by using 'Base document' button.
This is my testing results. If you could give me more information about version, patch level, local and more detailed reproduce stpes, maybe I could do more test and give you more information.

Problems with copy and paste document size

Using Adobe illustrator I have been copying images from a .pdf and then pasting in photoshop having made an action script which does : -
>Make New document
preset clipboard
>Paste
with aa
as: smart object
center: center
Translate 0, cm , 0cm
>Save
As JPEG
Quality 12
Matte: none
In E:/my documents....
with copy
most of the time it works but occasionaly pasting into photoshop the clipboard size is wrong it makes it much much smaller,
even if i bypass using the script and copy from illustrator and in PS try Ctrl N and Ctrl V.
Sometimes also clipboard isnt even selectable it wants to use a specific document size.
The only way I can fix it is close down Ai and PS, launch Ai and PS, copy in Ai then in PS press Ctrl N for New, choosing clipboard, Ctrl V to paste enter to confirm, then it seems happy and I can then carry on using my Actions or manually pasting to my hearts content.
My question is what is causing it to have this quirk, how can I avoid it if possible or is there no avoiding it?

>> How can I have dreamweaver hold format with
different tabs and bullets
Generally a bad idea. Word's HTML formatting is notoriously
flawed. And,
HTML doesn't allow tabs. You probably need to take time to
learn (X)HTML &
CSS before going further. You seem to be headed for disaster
if you expect
to just grab text from Word and plop it into a web page with
good results.
Web pages are in an entirely different world than Word docs.

Please help! -5002,Base document card and target document card do not match

Hi
When I try to save an invoice with a payment thro' the DI API I get the following error :
-5002,Base document card and target document card do not match
Why am I getting this error and how can I solce it?
Thanks

Hi,
For the sake of anyone else who has this problem:
After much searching for the answer to why I was getting this message I found that the internal validation must be case sensitive and so 'C00417' on the receipt was not matching 'c00417' on the invoice.

PO from SO via DI API:Base document card and target document card do not ..

HI All,
I am trying to create Purchase Order from Sales Order. This is possible by GUI (on Sales Order on logistics tabs Click On Purcase Orders CheckBox.
I got the error message: -5002-Base document card and target document card do not match.
The message itself can be understandable, because the Customer and Supplier has a different CardCode.
I am sure I am using a correct code
oPo.Lines.BaseType = BoObjectTypes.oOrders
oPo.Lines.BaseEntry = sDocEntry
oPo.Lines.BaseLine = iLineNum
Where oPo is a Purchase Order document.
sDocEntry is a Sales Order docentry and iLineNum is a Line number of Sales Order
For other A/R to A/R and A/P to A/P documents are working fine.
Has anybody found this error or has anybody created application like this?
I am using sbo2007PL46
Regards,
J.

Base document card and target document card do not match

I ran into this error "Base document card and target document card do not match" while uploading Outgoing Payments too AP Invoices.
The CardCode of the Invoice matches the CardCode of the Payment so it's not that issue. I can't seem to fix this error.
Any input would be helpful.

Base Document and Target Document Menu for User Defined Forms

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem regarding enabling the menu "Base Document" Menu UID="5898" and "Target Document" Menu UID="5899" . Both of these menu Items are not enabled for User Defined Form .Actually I have developed a user Defined form for Purchase Requisition that targets Purchase Order . User can Copy Line Items From Purchase Requisition to Purchase Order and I am tracking the DocEntry and LineId of PR into PO Item's using UDS . I want to Open this PR Document upon Click of BaseDocument Menu .I have tried all the options. I have used Form.enableMenu() method also . But none of those options work for this menu . I ahve also searched about this problem i this forum also but there is no soultion so far posted regarding this.
I really want to confirm whether it is possible or not using SDK for User Defined Forms . Is there any possiblity of implementing any WorkArounds and Having this feature implemented .
I am Expecting a true solutions as this Forum has so many Experienced Experts .
Thanks and Regards,
Pooja Singh.

Hello Poja,
It is not possible, because the requested menus are depending on the forms, and the are not exists,
WorkAround:
add the menus to the User Defined forms, and use right click to activate them:
oForm.Menu.Add("5898", "Base Document", BoMenuType.mt_STRING, oForm.Menu.Count)
oForm.EnableMenu("5898", True)
And hanle the menu event when you clicked them and the form is your custom form.
Regards,
János

COPY EXCHANGE RATE FROM BASE TO TARGET DOCUMENTS

After several study and anaylsis based on Note 703028, we conclude this feature is not applicable to our normal practice in Singapore.
SAP Business One copies the base row Exchange Rate to the target document only if items in the base document are defined with prices in a Foreign Currency which is not set as the System Currency or which is different from the Business Partner's Currency (this is the currency selected in the header of the document for a Multi Currency Business Partner). This prevents a discrepancy between the row total and the document total.
Since this feature is not desirable in your applications, we would like to feedback to SAP and suggest for improvement.
Example
My Local Currency is SGD, System Currency is EUR, BP Currency is USD.
Foreign Currency exchange rates:
                    USD
3 Oct 2007    1.4
4 Oct 2007    1.5 (1 USD = 1.5 SGD)
Assuming in Sales Order, BP Currency is USD at exchange rate of 1.4, Document Date 3 Oct 2007.
Qty     Unit Price    Total Amount (SGD)
1        USD1,000    SGD1,400
After copying Sales Order to Invoice on 4 Oct 2007 with BP Currency USD, default exchange rate should be 1 USD = 1.4 SGD
Qty     Unit Price    Total Amount (SGD)
1        USD1,000    SGD1,400
Current system behaviour is not desirable.
After copying Sales Order to Invoice on 4 Oct 2007 with BP Currency USD, default exchange rate is 1 USD = 1.5 SGD though we choose Copy Exchange rate from Base Document in the Copy Wizard.
Qty     Unit Price    Total Amount (SGD)
1        USD1,000    SGD1,500
Kedalene Chong

We have had the same issue.
The BP pricelist currency is in this case important, not the BP currency.
The question 'copy exchange rate from base to target document' relates to this currency exchange rate used in the base document to calculate from USD to SGD. If your pricelist is in SGD, then the program will recalculate the target document SGD to the same exchange rate in USD as it was in the base document.
Because the value of the USD currency has changed, there wil be a different amount on the target document.
If you donot want a different amount on the target document then the only solution is to make a price list in USD.

Problem with Rescue and Recovery after installing Norton Internet Security 2010

Hi all.
It's my first time in this forum.
I have a problem, with Rescue and Recovery, after installing Norton Internet Security 2010 on my T43.
The message I get it:
"Rescue and Recovery is unable to back up the file 'C:\Documents and settings\all Users\Application Data\ Norton\ 00000082\00000109\000003c1\cltMLS1.bat' Because the file is either corrupted or being used by another application. Please close any application that could be using the file.
I tried to close the Norton but I couldn't find how.

Hi and welcome to the forum,
the reason for this situation is, that the antivir files are protected from being modified.
This is the reason, why this file cannot be backed up. I assume, that you would get much more such messages, as there are surelly multiple files files, that are protected like this.
So the solution is to block folders from being archived. Please start RnR application and in the configuration set this folder as the excluded one.
This will skip the backup of this file and will fix your situation.
Please let me know, if you have covered this.
Cheers
