Hi Ronnie

Can you please tell me how you restricted no of line items in a PO to 50 as we are also looking for the same,,,Did you made any SPRO settings or used any user exits for the same. Please do let me know .

We have program for upload a flat file with multiple line items.It created PO through BAPI_PO_CREATE1. But creating PO with 2000 line is very slow.

Creating standard PO takes for about 1,5-2 minutes, but creating Stock Transport Order takes 30 sec.

Anybody create that PO (~2000 items) ? What time does it take?

In our case our program will restrict number of line per PO by 50, if there are more that 50 lines it will create a new PO instead of dumping all line items in one PO. Did you try that option?

ronnie, thanks for your help.

But our business process allows to work with one PO. We can't divide its.

I do not think you will find many people creating purchase orders with 2000 lines, but I would expect it to be slow. Using BAPI_PO_CREATE will probably be the fastest way.

You can do the same Mass create through BAPI for GR and IR as well.

Do they enter 1000 - 2000 lines manually? This is what we did when we have line items more than 100..Created custom program to upload a flat file with multiple line items, and through BAPI_PO_CREATE it automatically created Purchase orders. This will save your time and you don't get any maintenance issues.
