Symptoms

Autocreated POs fail to approve and reserve, when there are sufficient funds available.
These PO will reserve successfully manually using Workflow notification retry.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Auto create PO
2. PO fails to approve and reserve intermittently

- Intermittent issue, occurs on 4-6 POs per day

Compare Workflow status of 2 identical POs for the same item, sourcing document, accounting etc, observe the following:

Process/Activity RESERVE_BEFORE_APPROVE/DOC_RESERVE_PROCESS shows status=COMPLETE, result=N for the failed PO.
