Is it possible to recalculate Outside Service Purchase Order costs?

Here is what happened:

An Outside Service cost was erroneously set up to include $0.33 per unit and a $0.33 base charge per service. We don't use a base charge per service, that field should have been left at 0.

Engineering Masters, Work Orders, and Outside Service Purchase Orders have been created and received using the incorrect cost. This went unnoticed until the person processing the invoice in AP Invoice Entry discovered that all of the invoices were off by $0.33.

I updated the cost in Outside Service Maintenance, then went to Maintain> Reset operation costs. I kept the radio dial on Current service only, checked the boxes next to Engineering Master operations and Work Order operations, and selected "According to operation status" and checked all of the boxes underneath that, and then clicked OK.

This took care of the Engineering Masters and Work Orders, but the Outside Service Purchase Orders are still off by $0.33. Many of the PO's are closed, and waiting to be received against the invoices (none of the invoices have been processed yet because of the discrepancy).

Is there a way I can recalculate the costs on the Outside Service Purchase Orders? There are not part ID's associated with the PO's. I tried updating the PO status to Released and clicking on the refresh button, and that didn't work. I tried recalculating distributions in Costing Utilities, and that didn't work either.

There are 75 PO's with the wrong cost. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Christy,

Only way I know how to change the cost of a PO line that has been received is to unreceive the line, change the cost, then re receive the line. If you have not posted yet, then deleting the receiver works as well. Either case, you are getting rid of the receipt, changing cost, and re receiving.
