Changes to the Configuration Once an ETO Project Quote is Accepted

If you decide to make changes to the configuration or to add a new set of configured work orders, you must consider the way that JD Edwards EnterpriseOne ETO works if it interacts with the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost system from Oracle, and the implications of this interface.

Changes made to the configuration that result in the addition of a new configured work order in the same structure are not a problem since the new task does not have an original budget. The functionality works this way if any manufacturing work order is added after the quote is accepted.

If changes to the configuration result in the deletion of a configured work order from the existing structure, then the original budget amount might require modification. Budgets that are associated with the work order which was deleted might exist, and these budgets might already have been uploaded to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost. Nothing happens automatically in the system because tight integration between JD Edwards EnterpriseOne ETO and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost does not exist. No system checks are in place to verify whether you manually added cost code and cost type to the project structure in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost and also manually added budgets.

Thus, you can unlock the project, and delete account and budget information that was manually added to ensure the accuracy of the budget amounts.
