How to change Document Date on a Old Purchase Order

[Former Member]

We are having issues with about 57 purchase orders document date set at 12/31/2999 that is causing issues implementing Business Intelligence. Is there a program that I can use to change these dates back to 12/31/2019 or something. Due to calendar year 2999 not being setup BW can not bring this information into their queue. I hate to do this via debug. Are there any options. Thank you for your help.

According to SAP, since purchase order is a legal document they do not support the process of changing document number. They suggested I do the change with debug and replace at my own risk. In ME22N go to debug and type MEPO_TOPLINE-BEDAT. The values for this field show up as 29991231 that should be changed to 20191231 and press F8, then save the purchase order.
