ACTUAL BEHAVIOR

When using 'Import Standard Purchase Order' for importing PO, find imported PO View Action History > action = Submit > performed by = A (* who submitted 'Import Standard Purchase Order' as Importer)

instead of actual PO buyer = B (*who is the actual buyer of this imported PO)

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

-----------------------

Expect PDOI imported PO Action History should display actual PO buyer as submit action.

e.g. View Action History > action = Submit / performed by =B who is the actual buyer of this PO.

STEPS

-----------------------

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. populate data into purchasing interface tables with PO Approval Status = INITIATE APPROVAL / buyer = B (actual buyer)

2. submit 'Import Standard Purchase Order' with parameter Approval Status = INITIATE APPROVAL / concurrent program is submitted by = A (importer)

3. PO is imported as IN PROCESS

--> Found:

View Action History > imported PO submit action performed by A who submit import program, but NOT the actual buyer B.

Expect imported PO View Action History action = Submit / performed by = B who is the actual buyer of this PO.

PDOI imported PO action history should also display submit person as Buyer, but NOT the importer.
