HI

To make PR mandatory for a perticular user....

Define a function authorization for Buyers.

Menu path.. Purchasing (img) -> Authorization mangament->Define function authorization for Buyers...-> Function authorizations:PO

Create a new Function authorization (Say, ZA) and Tick "Rerf to Purchase requisition" in 'Possible ref. Objects' screen.and SAVE.

Now in user master Enter the parameter id EFB and assigne the value ZA of the created function authorization.

Now that perticular user can create PO only wrt PR.

In case u r looking for this requirement....

Using OMET Function Authorization, you can restrict users to create Purchase orders without Purchase Reqn.

Using OMET trxn code Create one Function Authorixation Called pr and in General Parameters tab Select the Field Selection and in Possible reference Objects Tab Mark the With ref to Prs check box and save.

Next, you've got to associate via SU01

Click Parameters, insert a new parameter id EFB to the authorization code.

Type in Parameters value you want e.g. XX

You have to assign the control for ALL the SAP buyers via thier SAP users id.

Logoff and login again. Then try to create a Purchase Order without a reference.

From Next time whenever you try to create with out referring PR it will not allow you to Save PO.
