Duplicate po no

[former_member380959]

Hi All,

We want system to SKIP any Duplicate PO No. Checks when the sales order is being created with a reference to other document.

Duplicate PO Check to be turned off (irrespective of Settings at Order or Customer Master Level (We are enhancing customer master to control Duplicate PO Check), if Sales Order is created with reference (field VBAK-VGBEL)

There's this problem here

VBAK-VGBEL will have the Document No. of referred Sales Order, only after the Sales Order has already been created.. but we want to find a field which tells us that the Sales Order is being created with a reference to another document. So I think VBAK-VGBEL will not be the right field for this or atleast VBAK will not be the right table for this.

Is there an Internal Table/Structure where Sales Order Create Program keeps data for reference sales order No. (1st Sales Order) while creating the 2nd  Sales Order?? If yes, then Please tell me the technical explanation (Table Name/Field Name).

Regards,

Adi

You can try to use table VBFA (document flow table) to track the connectivity between the preceding and subsequent documents.
