E1: 31A: Creating a Manufactured Work Order (P48013) Results in Incorrect Routing (B1, B3) Production Costs (F3102/P31022) for a Potency Controlled Parent (Doc ID 2914761.1) (Doc ID 2914761.1)

Symptoms

If a standard-cost Manufactured item is set with Potency Control = Y, a Standard Potency percentage, and uses a potent primary unit of measure, creating a Work Order (P48013) will result in incorrect routing costs (e.g., B1, B3). After the parts list and routing are attached (R31410), there will already be an invalid engineering variance.

Steps:
1. Create a Manufactured item (P4101/P41026) that uses Primary Unit of Measure GP (Potent Gallons) and Production Unit of Measure GA (Gallons).
2. Set the Item unit of measure conversion to 1 GP = 1 GA.
3. In the Item Branch (P41026), Additional Systems Information, select the Grade and Potency tab; set Potency Control = Y with Standard Potency = 60%.
4. Create a Bill of Material using the potent unit of measure as the production unit of measure.
5. Create a Routing using the potent unit of measure as the production unit of measure; make sure to add either direct labor or machine hours or both.
6. Simulate (R30812) and Freeze (R30835) costs.
7. Create a Work Order (P48013) for the Manufactured item.
8. Inquire on Production Costs (P31022); review all cost types.    
9. Run Order Processing (R31410) over the Work Order.
10. Re-inquire on the item in Production Cost Inquiry (P31022). Notice that the Standard and Current Amounts are different for routing costs and that there is already an Engineering Variance.
