DETAILS
In Microsoft Dynamics SL 2018 a new logging option was added for company allocations in Project Controller setup PC options and setup
When the top option-“ Log when company has no allocations” is checked, it’s a global setting that is always on.
With this setting on if a user runs the allocation processor, they will automatically get an event log if there are no allocations for the company or companies in which the process is being run.
0073: Company XXXXX: No allocations records created. No report generated.
When the bottom option is checked “Enable log when company has no allocations override” it’s an override option and it puts the top option “Log when company has no allocations” On the allocation processor screen so the user can turn it off /on at will.
When the options are off , the user will not get a log or message regarding company allocations. However if there is an error in the process, the screen will report that there was a problem with an 0281 error and write to the event log.
