Customer PO numbe rshould not duplicate

[Keshi1]

Hi

For specific sales order type we need to restict customer PO number getting ducplicate. It should pop up an error massage when, user enters the customer PO number which he entered priviously. This should not be specific to customer. For any customet, if user enters a PO number which he enters before system should give an error massage.

Please advice how to configure this !!

Thanx in advance !!!

For the same customer, you can restrict this through standard settings but not for order type. Check this thread where the same topic was discussed couple of weeks ago.

Hello Kesharika,

You can do this by customizing

Step1. In the Sales Order type customizing (VOV8) set the option Check purch.order no = A, this will result a warning message in sales order when you enter a duplicate PO number, however you require an error message, so follow the step 2.

Step2. Change the attribute of the message V4 115, in the following place IMG>Sales and Distribution>Sales -->Sales Documents --> Define Variable Messages. Fine the message VA 115 and change the System message category to E.
