Fax number in PO output determination

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a question regarding the fax number determination during PO output.

Case -

PO is created for the main vendor, which has a different OA vendor and a PI vendor maintained as partners. The output condition record is maintained for the OA vendor as fax output. So in the PO the message gets created correctly for the OA vendor with the medium as fax.

However there is no fax number maintained in the vendor master record for the OA vendor. So the system is using the fax number maintained in the main vendor master record and sending the faxes to the main vendor.

The question is - Is the system behaviour correct ? I thought that the system would fail to send the fax since the fax number was not maintained in the OA vendor master record.

Pl. opine.

Thanx,

Not clear on your statement ' there is no provision for maintaining fax number for OA vendor '. - We can maintain fax number for any vendor in the general address data. And that's where the fax number would be picked from when sending the PO output to the vendor.

Could you please elaborate what exactly you mean to say ?

Thanx,

If you don't output condition record than fax number always pick from vendor master , there is no provision for maintaining fax number for OA vendor .

You have to set-up output condition record using MN04 for fax output & with correct vendor / Porg combination.Than fax output should pick as desired.
