Integrating Purchase Orders from PeopleSoft Purchasing to PeopleSoft Project Costing

You can integrate purchase orders that originate in PeopleSoft Purchasing into PeopleSoft Project Costing. The Purchasing to Project Costing process identifies the distribution lines in the PO Line Accounting Entries table (PO_LINE_DISTRIB) that are eligible for integration to Project Costing. Rows in the PO Line Accounting Entries table are eligible for integration if they:

• Contain values for the required project-related ChartFields.

• Have a PC Distribution Status status of N (not distributed).

The Purchasing to Project Costing process updates the PC distribution status to D (distributed) and copies the transactions to PeopleSoft Project Costing. If you use PeopleSoft Maintenance Management, the process also imports the work order business unit, work order ID, task ID, work order resource type, and work order resource line into the Project Transaction table.

Purchase orders appear as transactions with the analysis type that is specified in the Purchase Orders field (AN_TYPE_PO_PO) on the Installation Options - Project Costing Integration page. The Purchase Orders field default value is COM.
