Reset the Accounting Type field in Generate Payment Schedule wizard after Create Schedules event

When you use the Generate Payment Schedules wizard to enter payment schedules, it is designed to allow a user to enter schedule for various payment types. When you Create Schedules for one payment type, the page resets and allows the user to enter new payment schedules. However, the Accounting Type field does not get reset.

The problem with this is that if you are dealing with an accounts payable lease and you enter a tenant improvement incentive as an A/R schedule then proceed to rent schedules which should be A/P schedules, the Accounting Type is set to the value from the previous payment schedule (in this case, A/R). The field does get updated with an onChange WF of the Payment Type field, but since it defaults to "Rent", if you happen to be entering rent schedules after a TI or any other A/R schedule, it is easy to mistakenly create rent schedules as A/R schedules.

Suggested solution: update the WFs that clear out the Generate Payment Schedule wizard to ensure that the onChange WF for the Payment Type field gets executed as a part of the clearing/reset process.

    The default manager query that shows all payment schedules in the Payment Schedules tab does not show the Accounting Type which means that the A/R payment schedules can look exactly the same as A/P payment schedules.This is the additional request that is mentioned in the Idea details and is not supported in TRIRIGA. We will add the Accounting Type field to the queries. We will create a story for the Athena release.

    We have consulted with the development team and have been told that this issue has been fixed for some time.They believe that it was fixed prior to 10.6.1
