Hey

One option is available. In the below link u can select PR filed mandatory. If u opt for this u cannot create PO without PR.

SPRO - SAP IMG - Materials Management - Purchasing - Purchase Order - Define Screen Layout at Document Level

Hi,

Please follow the below path in SPRO:

Materials ManagementPurchasingPurchase Order--Define Screen Layout at Document Level

Here you can make PR field mandetory.

This is a work around and in this case user will not be able to create PO with out PR at all.

Dear,

Use Release strategy without classification for PR and give user rights to particular user who wants to convert PR to PO.

Dear Prashanth,

Please read the question once again. He is asking Po creation will be allowed only with proper PR.

So, He need to do the configuration as per the post above. The release strategy will not work out here.

Mohammad Ali.

Hi

Check the document reference for your purchase order document type (NB) in IMG - MM - purchasing - purchase order - define document types and for that reference document type (say ex NBF) set PR as mandatory in Define Screen Layout at Document Level and also for ME21n field reference.

Thanks
