    Which tables and fields are best and any joins to create a crystal report to display RNI. We can see
     PORECLINE ENT-REC-QTY – the Receipt Quantity on PO30
     MAINVDTL ENTERED-QTY – The Invoice Quantity on MA43
     POLINE VBUY-UNIT-CST – The PO Line Unit Cost

    So we know if we take Receipt Quantity less Entered Quantity we get RNI Quantity. We can take this against PO Line Unit Cost to get RNI amount. But having trouble with MMDIST and other ways to link data to make this crystal tie completely to the PO135 in non-update. Most records tie out but some don't and we can't see what is making some records that should be on the crystal appear there when on the PO135 but not on the Crystal.

    We need to add in the daily RNI to a daily Crystal that adds RNI that day to Actuals against GL Budget to get remaining after considering any RNI amounts that day.

    Any ideas? Thank you!

      You may want to take archived quantity into account when calculating RNI. I have a Crystal report for RNI that goes out to the buyers weekly and they can also run it as needed from their LBI dashboard. It doesn't have any GL data though. All you really need is POLINE and MMDIST. But when I try to join MMDIST on POLINE if I don't use any filters I get a lot of duplicate lines because of the different posting types (RN, H1, E1). And if I filter out all but the E1 posting type the inventory postings are missing from the report.

        As John said - it's PO Quantity, Cancel Qty, Archive Qty and the PO line status that might affect your reporting.

        Crystal vs RNI may also be a timing issue. Inventory lines will update with the IC130 but the non-stocks may match - taking them off Crystal, but not update the RNI until next month end run. We've have some reporting issues - especially if it matches on the 28th of the month but isn't due until the 5th of the next - the fact that it is matched but not paid seems to be when our nonstock just doesn't move off the report only RNI. The update run at month end catches up.

          just wanted to add..............when I filtered for MMDiST.SYSTEM_CD = "PO" and MMDIST.DOC_TYPE = "PT" , that eliminated the duplication when linking POLINE to MMDIST

            Emer, do you see inventory items in your output when you filter like that? If I view the MMDIST.SYSTEM_CD and MMDIST.DOC_TYPE fields for inventory lines these are both blank.
