Cost field on alm_consumable converting to session currency when consuming an asset - Known Error

Cost field on alm_consumable converting to session currency when consuming an asset Description Cost field on Consumable (alm_consumable) record converts to session currency when consuming an asset.

Steps to Reproduce

Navigate to Asset --> Portfolio --> Consumable 2. Open an existing Consumable record with quantity > 1 3. Update the cost to use Euro (eg: 1000 Euro) 4. Click on "Consume" UI action on the form which opens a modal 5. Fill in the Quantity, Asset, User fields on the modal 6. Click OK

Expected: The updated cost on the alm_consumable record is in Euro. Result: The updated cost on the alm_consumable record is converted to USD This is because of the out-of-box business rule "Update Costs" on alm_consumable which converts cost to session currency.

Workaround The business rule script can be updated as below which will return the currency as entered.

var prev_qty = previous.quantity; var prev_cost = previous.cost.getCurrencyValue(); //previous currency as entered var prev_curr_code = previous.cost.getCurrencyCode(); //previous currency code as entered current.cost = prev_curr_code + ";" + (prev_cost/prev_qty) * current.quantity;
