Question about: Auto PO generation for third party sales order

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place to leave this question but giving a shot.

In Sales Item category we have a check box called generate auto po. By reading the help i came to know that it generates PO and/or Purchase Requisition automatically on saving the Sales Order. It is also said that we need to make some ALV setting. Can any one lead me how to configure the setting,so that i can be successful in knowing about Third party Orders.

Thanks & Regards

Hello Mukund

It is talking about ALE- Application Link Enabling - not ALV. That is if you have distributed applications and use ALE to communicate between them. I don't think you need to do anything else. Just go ahead and test it. And if your MM Purchasing master data is set up correctly, you should be able to see the message about PO creation when the sales order is saved.
