Symptoms

After generating a Loading Report for a Buy Shipment and storing it as a Document, it gets stored for the owner type SELL SHIPMENT.
Hence the Shipment Smartlink for Buy Shipment 'Documents' returns zero results.

However, the Document can be retrieved in the BPA Document Manager. After changing the Owner Type to 'Shipment', the Smartlink from the Shipment works.
Hence it is safe to assume that the Owner Type gets incorretly set to Sell Side Shipment when generating a Loading Report from a Buy Shipment.

To reproduce:

  Select a 3D Shipment, press 'Actions' -> Business Process Automation -> Reports
  Click on Loading Report, select Storage Method 'Document', click 'Submit'.


The report is displayed.

  Search again for the Shipment
  Right-click on the Shipment ID so the smartlinks get displayed -> click 'Documents'


The system returns zero results.

  Go to Business Process Automation -> Document Manager
  Enter and 'Contains' as Owner ID, click 'Search'.

The Document is returned.

  Edit the Document and you will see the Owner Type is Sell Side Shipment.
  Copy the Owner ID, change the Owner Type to 'Shipment', paste the Owner ID back (it gets nixed when you change the Owner Type), click 'finished'.
  Search again for the Shipment
  Right-click on the Shipment ID so the smartlinks get displayed -> click 'Documents'


The document is now returned.
