Don't create PO if error exists

We've hit a couple of scenarios where if a PO is trying to be created but instead throws an error, the PO batch is still created and just goes into a 'Reserved' status and requires the office to delete it. The error is also very non-specific and is a database error, so technicians don't understand it and keep trying to submit.


An example of one of the errors is a PO trying to post to a Job work order, where the phase does not yet have a cost type 2 set up.

    Hey TJ,

    This should be handled as a bug. Can you submit a support case for this?

    I will be closing this since this is not a product enhancement.

    Thanks!
