Cross charge cross Legal Entities and Burdening doesn't work


ERROR
Burden cost can't be calculated because burden multipliers don't exist for the organization or cost codes.
Cause: The burden schedule version V1 dooesn't have multipliers for the transaciton organization, for a parent organization in the organization hierarchy, or f or a cost code associated with the expenditure type.


STEPS
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Legal Entity LE01 / BU01 owns the project PJT01 for which burdened costs applied

2. The project PJT1 has a burden schedule assigned to all of its and it is based on the organization tree linked to the BU in the Business Unit Accounting Function page.

3. When EMP01, who is assigned to LE01 / BU01 and has a department DEPT1 which belongs to the BU01 org tree, enters a new timecard, the system computes the burdened costs as expected.

4. When enable this project/tasks to be cross chargeable and receive expenditures from employees who are assigned to another BU (BU02) and even another LE (LE02).

This BU has separate organization tree in the Business Unit Accounting Function page.

When EMP02 charge a timecard on the project, the expenditure item is rejected with the message that burden cost multiplier cannot applied because the Exp Org doesn't exists in the burden schedule of the task.

(EMP02 is assigned DEPT2 department, and it is not included in the BU01 org tree.)
