Dear Nitchel

Go to OVA2, select "A - Sales Header", double click on "Procedures", again select "11 - Standard Order" and double click on "Fields". There maintain as follows;-

Table:::Fld.name:::Description:::::::::::::Screen:::Status:::Warning:::

VBKD:::::BSTKD:::::::PO number::::::::::KBES::::::01::::::::X

Now go to VOV8, select your order type and maintain "11" against the field "Incompl.proced."

Now try to save the sale order without maintaining customer PO

thanks

Hi

You have to include the "Purchase Order" field in the Incompletion list.

Purchase order field is a Header data in the Sales order.

So you have to create an Incompletion Procedure for Sales document Header.

There include the field "Purchase order" field, assign the "Status group" to it.

You may activate the error/warning check box.

Assign the Incompletion Procedure to your Sales document type.

Go to Sales document type VOV8 and activate the "Incompletion message" field so that without entering PO number you can not proceed.

Now whenever you will create an order (using the order type where you have assigned the procedure), you have to fill up the PO field or else you can proceed.

In

VOV8 in the general control tab there is enter P.O number

Put a tick mark

If you put a tick mark there then without PO no you will not be able to save the order

Hi,

By putting the PO field in incompletion log you can make it mandatory.

If you need Incompletion log steps, pls let me know
