Consider the following scenario in Process Industries in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012:
- You create a formula for an item.
- You create a batch purchase order of the item.
- You estimate and start the batch purchase order. Additionally, you do not select the Accept error check box.
- You run the report as finish on the batch order.
In this scenario, you can create and post the Report as Finished (RAF) journal even though you do not post the expected material in the purchase order. However, you should receive an error message that prevents you from creating the journal.
This problem occurs because the PmfProductType value can be used to define bill of material (BOM) and formula item type in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012.
