EAP: Voucher Asset Profile ID Validation Not Consistent (Doc ID 3060140.1)

Last updated on NOVEMBER 21, 2024

Applies to:

PeopleSoft Enterprise FIN Payables - Version 9.2 to 9.2 [Release 9]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Voucher asset profile ID validation is not working. Voucher Saved Without Errors with an invalid profile id for that asset.


STEPS:

1. Find an asset ID that is in service and note the profile, for example - Business Unit- US001, Asset ID- 000000000200.

Asset Management > Asset transactions > Owned assets > Basic add
Profile is set to “COMPUTERS”.

2. Add a new voucher. After entering all the necessary information, such as vendor ID, invoice ID, dates, account, dept, marking the asset flag, etc., pick or enter BLDG as the Profile ID, then paste the Asset ID(000000000200.) into the Asset field on the distribution line.

 Accounts Payable > Vouchers > Add/Update > Regular Entry 

3. When you try to save the voucher, you will receive the following error, which is correct - as it is preventing the user from using a Profile ID that is not associated with the Asset.
 

Invalid value - press the prompt button or hyperlink for a list of valid values(15,11)

4. Now, remove the Asset ID and Profile ID.
 
5. Now, paste the Asset ID in the Asset ID field first and then type in COMPUTERS as the Profile ID. After tabbing out, click the save button. The Voucher should save. 

6. Without refreshing the page, now immediately type BLDG as the Profile ID and click save again. It saves again, with an incorrect Profile ID.


NOTE: The steps above should reproduce the issue of being allowed to save the Voucher with an inaccurate Profile ID, however, if for some reasons the steps don’t replicate the issue then keep changing the Asset ID and Profile ID back and forth from a valid combination to an invalid combination and ultimately it should allow you to save with an inaccurate Profile ID. The bottom line is the system is not consistent. Sometimes it stops the user from saving the Voucher by issuing an error message and sometimes it does not. The system/code should be consistent and stop the user every time from saving the Voucher with an inaccurate Profile ID.
