I had started a case with Lawson Support re: "this PO100 error No Authority to use Entered unit cost" Same requestor-same requisition-same vendor-same contract and 1 item was stuck in PO23. I pulled it with no changes. The RQ04 set-up for the requestor is just like mine. I am trying to figure out the logic of this error. Is there another setting somewhere for "Authority". Also has happen on specials where $1.00 is entered but sometimes it pulls on through with the PO100 and sometimes not. All RQ04 the same. Happens on Bill onlys sometimes and 1 nonstock item will stay in PO23. Can anyone give me a clue? I have to be overlooking something.
It pulls from the RQ04 record. The requester isn't permitted to create pricing so if it can't find a po25.6 it gets stuck on PO23. If it's Bill Only - I'd check to see if the item UOM they used was valid.
If it's an x item and that's the screen shot - I'm at a loss.
THIRD EDIT: "Same requestor-same requisition-same vendor-same contract" -- check PO25 header and verify "UOMs must match" is Y or N - if it's Y, and the bill only uses a different UOM than the PO25.6, it will not do the math. I would expect it to prompt the user - not get stuck on PO23 - based on your RQ04 screenshot - but that might be the true source of the problem.
