want to keep the rev rec rule on the item record but on the SO, change the rev rule for that item. Can this be done?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it seems that you can change the revenue recognition rule on the Sales Order (SO) for a specific item, even if the item has a default revenue recognition rule set on the item record. This can be achieved through scripting. In one of the threads, a user mentioned a method where they used a script to modify the 'Create Revenue Plans On' field on the Revenue Arrangement (RA) lines. They tested this by creating a Sales Order (SO) with two lines of the same item, each having a single revenue recognition rule. After generating a Revenue Arrangement (RA) with a single revenue recognition rule and 'Create Revenue Plans On' set to 'Revenue Arrangement Creation', they modified the second line of the RA to 'Billing'. When they created the revenue recognition Journal Entry without invoicing the SO, only the first line of the RA was visible. After billing the SO, the second line of the RA became visible. This suggests that you can modify the 'Create Revenue Plans On' field on the RA lines through scripting, even if you have a single RA and a single item configured with a single revenue recognition rule. However, it's important to note that this method requires a way to distinguish between the first and second invoices on your SO. One suggestion was to add a checkbox '2nd Invoice' on the Sales Orders and Revenue Arrangements, which can then be mapped in the revenue recognition fields. This way, you can generate your revenue recognition at the time of fulfillment for your items from the first invoice, and generate your revenue recognition at the time of billing for your items from the second invoice. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
