Third Party Sales: Automatic PO (Purchase Order) not created.

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am Implementing thirdparty business process where goods are directly moved from vendor to my customer.

As per my customer requirement I want to create Automatic PO for the Purchase requisition created from Sales order.

For this I have done the following settings:

Marked vendor relevant for Automatic PO.

Marked Material relavent for Automatic PO

Marked Sales Item Category relavent for Automatic PO.

While I saved my sales order Purchase requision was created and system unabel to create the Purchase order automatically. If you encounter this situvation please share your views.

Thanks & regards

If the Purchase Requisitions are created automatically you can create a batch job that runs periodically to execute ME59n so the process will run in the background.

Dear Friends,

I am going through the following procedure to automate the PO creation from SO.

TC: SWETYPV

EVET: ALECREATED, ALECHANGED

Function Module: PUR_ORDER_CREATE_VIA_SD_EVENT

PUR_ORDER_CHANGE_VIA_SD_EVENT

and saved the entries still the PO not generated. Could you please through some light on this.

Thanks & Regards

Hi

In third party you will not be able to create automatic PO

The schedule line category CS settings in VOV6 order type NB, MM item category 5 and account assignment category settings as X and in VOV7 for TAS create automatic PO ticked will ensure PR creation only and not PO

As suggested by the other friend you need to run t code ME59N or ME59 for automatic PO creation but certain condition to be met

1) In the Purchasing View of the material master data, the "Autom. PO" field must be clicked;

2) In the Purchasing View of the Vendor Master Data, the "Automatic Purchase Order" field must be clicked;

3) The Outline Agreement or Purchasing Info Record shall be maintained which will allow the automatic copying of unit price and other conditions into PO;

4) The Source List shall be maintained for the nominated vendor which was shown in either the Outline Agreement or Purchasing Info Record.

You have to run ME59N transaction manually or schedule this as a background job

Hi Ugameshk,

Automatic PO will not get generated eventhough you have the check in TAS.

The PR will get generated once you save the third party order and you can create the PO with reference to this PR.

Hi,

You can only create PR automatically from sales order (when you save the SO). In order to create PO automatically wft PR goto ME59N.

there enter all the necessary details and execute. System will show you the list PR and then you can create PO

Hope it will help you

Hello,

As per my knowledge in third party Sales Process, you can never automate the PO creation.

With relevance to item category (TAS), a PR will be triggered automatically when you save a Sales order. Then you need to create

a PO with reference to PR.

Hope this helps you in understanding !!
