APARChange details
The condition code field is a required field on po (poline), thus when a PO is generated from PR or RFQ and the condition code is missing on the PRline or QuotationLine as it is not required there, the condition code will be set to default on PO.
User will get a error message stating "cannot generate a work order as no measurement is available" when trying to generate work order from condition monitoring application with no measurement available on the meter.
The warning BMXAA9342W is intended for time-based PMs when the next due date cannot be determined.
However, for meter-based PMs (frequency = 0) where a meter is associated, the next WO generation date may come from meter readings instead of the time-based nextdate field.
Therefore, display the warning only when:
"Use Last WO Start Date" is disabled, AND
nextdate (time-based next due date) is null, AND
PM has generated at least one WO (pmcounter > 0), AND
Either no meter is associated OR time-based frequency is configured.
If a meter is associated and frequency = 0 (pure meter-based PM), suppress
the warning
because the next generation date may be derived from meter readings instead of nextdate.
