Reducing PO Quantity sends SHC back to SOCO

[Former Member]

Experts,

I have a scenario where when a PO that went through sourcing cockpit has it's quantity reduced, the balance goes back to sourcing.

eg: I initially create a SHC for 10 items, it gets approved, then I reduce the quantity to 8. Buyer will see the same SHC back in SOCO for the remaining 2 items.

SHC gets the sorcing relevant flag turned back on. How do I prevent this from continuing? Unfortunately it is not possible to change the SHC to 8 (to match the PO) that way the system doesn't think there is a balance for sourcing.

Any helpful suggestions would be rewarded with points.

regards,

Hello Onyedika,

Behaviour you described is standard.

If you need to change this process, look at thread below:

[SHC not appearing in Buyeru2019s worklist|;

In method BBP_SC_CHANGE from BAdI BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, depending on your business rule, you will have to update SC item field SOURCE_REL_ID with value 'Y' or space (not sourcing relevant).

Regards.

Issue is resolved by "cancelling" the items in sourcing cockpit. However in order to prevent the shopping cart from going there in the first place, custom development was done to change the cart to Y whenever the PO quantity is increased to a value lower than the shopping cart.
