PO delete functionality for the POs in the Error in Process

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Working with SRM 5.0 and Extended Classic scenario.

PO is in the status 'Error in Process'.Examining teh Delete Functionality.

If it is fresh version then there is no issue as there is no Backend PO.

If this is the version1 and the Purchaser tries to delete the PO at the Header level then SRM PO

gets deleted, but no deletion occurs in the Back end system.

Business requirement

1. Can the deleted PO be brought back into the Purchaser's worklist or the Purchaser can process further?

( I can see the PO in the bbp_pd)

2.Another way is that to disable the PO delete button for the POs in the status "Error in Process"

so that an administrator or somebody can take it up fix the error and reprocess to be in sync with the Back end PO.

3.Another case for study is that, since the Back end PO is in OPEN status what would happen if in R3

GR and Invoices are carried out?

Any body faced this issue earlier?

Any pointers ,Links, SAP Notes etc are welcome.

Hi

It is not possible to GRN for this PO in the Back end once any PO is in error status.

Ist of all you need to bring back this po to normal stage. Please see change documents in the PO. do revert back all the change . then this po will come to the normal state.

One advise if you are changing the any header data in the PO then any PO will go to error.
