PO committment before approval

Former Member

Hi All,

My SAP system does the following, is this normal and can it be changed using config?

1. I create a PO and save it. A committment is generated even BEFORE I've approved the PO (using release strategy and workflow).

2. I decide to reject the PO. The committment is not deleted. It will only be deleted if I go into the PO and flag it for deletion.

Is there a way to only generate a committment once the PO is approved?

Is there a way to remove the committment once the PO is rejected?

Can this be done within Standard SAP?

Thank you very much,

Dani

Does anyone else have any thoughts on this?

How do you currently reset the committments on a rejected purchase order in your organisation?

Thanks.

Hi

When ever purchasing document is created, then commitment will be there on CO object. It is standard SAP practise. Check with your CO/FI consultant whether through FM (funds management) can he control activation of commitment only on document release?

Hi,

When the PO is created the commitment will be created automatically in standard SAP.The Workflow approval & Rejection is not link with the commitment line item.The workflow is required to go for next step,that is GR.GR cannot be done until the release is done for PO.

So in standard the commitment will updated automatically once you create PO.

Find some user exit to have such scenario.
