Copy control

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Hope I am having issue with copy control- copy item number in header, In my case i am  having items copied from order to credit request for example in order i am having ten items 10 to 100(10,20,30.......100) and in credit request i am having only 9 items(10......90) we actually left item 20 in order.

Here in my case item number for material in credit request is changing how can i restrict it, I see copy item number is checked in copy control header.

Pratap,

If you read the F1 help, for field "Copy item number from reference", in VTAA, at header level -

Use
If you expand a document by copying in only partial item information from 
another document, the system does not copy the item numbers. If the system does 
not copy the item numbers from the source document, the item numbers in the 
target document are regenerated to avoid gaps in the numbering. In this case, 
the higher-level item field and the alternative item field in the sales order 
entry screens are also renumbered to keep their original relationship to other 
items intact.

If you copy only partial item (i.e. donot copy line # 20) then the number is regenerated.

Meaning it is not same as the numbering in the source document.

Please test by referencing all the items in the source document to the target document, the same number shall apply in both documents.

Hi Pratap,

What i could get from your issue is:

You have SO with Line item 10 to 100 and when you create credit note you get line item 10 to 90 where line item 20 from SO is missing., hence line item 30 in sale order becomes as line item 20 in credit note..!!

Check the copying requirements. if any of the copying requirement is not met at item level that particular item will not get copied. This is what i can propose for now.

You can reply back if issue is different from what i got or anything that you observe on copy controls.

Thanks

Hi,

I am not asking why item number 20 has not copied, it is created manually and intentional, what i want to restrict is item number in credit request should not be different for same material copied from standard order.

In order source doc i am having 10 items but in credit request we have copied only 9 items from standard order so in our case item numbers were changed in credit request it did't copy similar item numbers for same material

eg:   10..20..30...40..50..60..70.80..90..100 standard order

        10  20  30..40..50..60..70..80..90         credit request

here 30 item of standard order is 20 in credit request similarly 40 item of standard order is 30 in credit request.....................................100 item in standard order in 90 item in credit request.

Please suggest to restrict this, we want similar item numbers for materials both in credit request and standard order.
