PO without SC

How to restrict direct PO creation without any SC reference???

Thanks.

Hello,

In role authorization (PFCG), there is an object "SRM: Process Purchase Orders", assigned to the role.

Maybe you could try to restrict here, but not sure if this will impact POs created from carts as well.

Thanks Ricardo for your reply. As per my client requirement PO restriction required in SRM only. Only PO and GRN transferred to SAP but no SC. Hence In SAP it is always PO without PR but requirement is to restrict PO without SC in SRM.

Pls suggest.

I am not clear about your requirement. Are you using Classic scenario or Extended classic scenario?

In case of Classic all POs will be created from SC only, so there would not be any issue.

In Extended classic, remove the authorization "Process Purchase Order" "Create PO" from the purchaser role in SRM as explained by Ricardo. Also, in Portal, remove the links "Process Purchase Order", "Create PO" for the roles "Operation purchaser", "Strategic purchaser" and then PO cannot be created directly in SRM.

Hi,

you can configure in SPRO to create only PR, so there will be no PO created even when the complete details are available.
