Old PO's Went Into Unreleased Status on PO20

On Friday, we had about 40 PO's go into an Unreleased status after previously being EDI'd, received, and invoiced - dating from June 2016-August 2016. The interesting thing is that all of these PO's are for the same vendor and they all have one or more items that have had cost messages since the invoice came through but haven't been resolved, or were just resolved yesterday 9/6. So none of these invoices have been paid (or else the PO's would have closed at month end).

Has anyone else ever encountered this? The buyer said they all showed up on PO20 around the same time, making us believe no one person did this.

Was there any cancelling done on the PO lines?

unknown

Did anyone run an MA180 or perform a "cancel remaining" on PO22.2? That has caused issues like this for us in the past. If so, open a ticket with Infor and ask for assistance. If you are not happy with the results, I would be happy to work with you, but can not do so for at least two weeks - v10 upgrade is imminent for us.

There were a couple PO's that had canceled lines, but again, all of these changes were made around the time that the PO's were created, not recently. So it's strange that 40 of them randomly unreleased.

We do not run MA180 and we do not use PO22.2. We went through and released all of the PO's since the invoices were already behind and needed to be paid. If it happens in the future, we'll be opening an incident with Lawson. Or maybe when we get to v10 that's part of the new audit features to see who changed the status to unreleased.

Have you looked at the POAUDIT table to see if changes were made en mass those POs or lines?
