Time Card approval creates new expense line which creates a new capex cost plan everytime?

[Pranav_Thanedar]

Hello Community,

Can someone please explain what are we doing wrong in the below process?

1. We create resource assignments and approve them

2. We generate cost plans using the generate labour costs button in the financials section of the Project Workspace (This cost plan is Opex because the project task was Opex)

3. The user fills time card for the task for which the resource assignment was created.

4. The time card is processed by time card approver.

5. An expense line is created after time card is processed.

6. Now, the expense line again creates a new cost plan which is of the type Capex.

Why is a new cost plan being generated when there is already one existing? and also why is the cost plan always capex even though when the task for which resource assignment was generated is opex? 

Can someone please explain if we are following a wrong process or is there something wrong with how cost plans are supposed to work? Thanks!

Hi @Runjay Patel ,

That does not seem to be the case as well, even if there are capex cost plans already existing, it still creates an additional capex plan with zero value.
