13684 – SOP016 – Error when creating a B2B for a SO with a build item

Version Reported In

Sicon Enhancement Pack v221.0.62

Detailed Description

If you have created a Sales Order from a Purchase order that includes a stock item, you will receive an error. This is because SOP016 will try to create a Sales Order for that build item although it is manufactured internally.

Please note – For this you will need to have Sicon Manufacturing installed.

1. Within the Sage 200 menu, go to Enhancement Pack > Settings.

2. Go to the SOP tab and enable SOP016.

3. Create a new Sales Order, this can be done by going into Sales Order Processing > Sales Orders > Enter New Order – Full.

4. Within the Sales Order, add a stock item for a built item. And then select the Save button.

5. Message will appear asking if you would like to create a back-to-back PO for the sales order, select the Yes button.

6. A pop up will appear to ask you to create a Work Order for the item, select the Create Works Order button.

7. On the Sub assembly, if applicable, select the Finish button.

8. A Works Order will then be created in the contact of SOP016, however, this will error.

Impact: Low

• Urgency | Ability to work not affected; workaround available.
• Impact | All users affected.

Workaround

Currently, SOP016 is not fully supportive of works orders which why this error is present. We recommend you create the Works Order through Sicon Works Orders > Works Order List rather than doing it while creating a Back-To-Back. We recommend on step 6 you select the Close button.

More information on how to create a Works Order can be found inside the Works Order Processing help and user guide.
