As a Projects user, an annoyance that I continue to encounter with Payables is that the pa_addition_flag is not shown as a column for Payables invoice distributions. The pa_addition_flag shows the status of Projects-coded invoice distributions, and among other things, indicates whether an invoice distribution has interfaced successfully to/from Projects. Therefore, if this flag were shown in the form, it would be immediately useful for functional Projects users trying to reconcile discrepancies with Payables. I was hoping that this flag would appear in R12.1.1, alas it has not.
