      Hi All,
      We recently implemented the Project Accounting module and we have posted some hour transactions to a project that has a project contract with multiple funding sources.  Some of the transactions were posted with an incorrect allocation on the funding rule.  The funding rule has been corrected and we’ve verified the proper dates are on it, however, when I go to adjust the transactions the new funding rule is not applied (even though the adjustment screen states “If you adjust a transaction with multiple funding sources, the funding rules will be applied again”).  I am wondering if any one has any experience with this and can direct me to what I might be doing wrong.  All of the new transactions that have been done since the rule was updated are now posting correctly.  We are on AX 2012 R2 CU7.

      Thanks for any assistance.

      Hi Michael,

      Are you checking the “Funding source” checkbox in the Adjust transactions dialog? I am using a CU8 environment, so it might be not be available in CU7. 


      I also found this hotfix on Life Cycle Services that might be helpful: KB2953097 

      Regards,

      Ben,
      Thank you very much for your response.  You have pointed me to the answer to my question.  In CU7 there is no check box for “Funding source”, so no luck there.  But the hotfix you pointed out led me to my answer.  We do not have the parameter “Use adjustment date as new project date” checked.  Once I checked this box the funding source was reallocated to the new amounts when I adjusted the transaction.  Since we do not want this box checked, it looks like we will have to apply the hotfix to get it to function the way we would like.

      I appreciate the assistance!!

      -Mike

      Hello,
      Are there any amounts committed against your funding sources at the time of the posting? If there are it reserves those amounts and will move to the next allocation.

      Hope this helps.

      Nicole

      Hi Nicole,
      Thanks for the response, but no we did not have any committed amounts at the time of posting.

      Thank you,
      Mike
