Symptoms

In Purchase Order Entry (P4310) application, when trying to create a new purchase order for a non-stock item and populating the Production Number, the system checks for the Production Controlled flag in the Item Branch/Plant record. But for non-stock items a Branch/Plant record does not exist, therefore for non-stock items, the system should check for the Production Controlled flag in the Item record, instead of Item B/P record.

Steps to duplicate:

1. Create a new non-stock item in P4101, check the Production Controlled flag.
2. Generate a production number for the item in Production Number Master (P34401).
3. Create a new purchase order in P4310, enter the non-stock item on the PO detail line and populate the Production Number. The system does not check for the Production Controlled flag in Item Master (P4101), but it searches for an Item BP record.

Desired outcome:
For non-stock items, the system should check the Production Number flag in the Item Master (F4101).
For stock items, the system should check the Production Number flag in Item B/P (F41026).
