Note

If this session is started from the Costs (tpppc2811m000) session, financial data cannot be maintained for transactions entered in this session.

In Project, the financial transactions originating from a financial document (for example a journal voucher) are split as cost or revenue transactions. LN automatically processes and registers the transactions in the Cost Transactions (tpppc2100m000) and Revenue History (tpppc3505m000) sessions, after the financial document linked to the transactions is approved in Financials.
