TOS Transaction Type
The Task Order Setup (TOS) transaction is the vehicle by which multiple cost accounting-related pages are updated by a single transaction. Consolidating the effort of setting up Cost Accounting data into a transaction ensures that data is not inadvertently left out and helps with conversion activities. In addition, a transaction has the benefit of providing an audit trail as well as allowing for collaboration and workflow approvals, if desired. In turn, this transaction simplifies the process of setting up Cost Accounting data while triggering the same edits/functionality as those that exist on the reference pages.
The transaction requires that only one Task Order be established. Rules are enforced throughout the transaction for other tabs when they are created. When finalized, the transaction cannot be modified or cancelled. The various reference pages must be updated manually.
This transaction is very different from the Task Order (TK) in many respects. Both should be reviewed to see which is the best fit, as one cannot mix the two methods of task order entry.
The TOS Transaction Type has the following structure:
Task Order (1)
Valid Tasks (0 – n)
Funding Profile (0 – 1)
Funding Priority (0 – n)
Funding Line (0 – n)
Internal Buyer Funding Line (0 – n)
