TM 9.0 OTR on confirmed quantities for Purchase Order to vendor

[former_member205075]

Dear experts,

has anybody worked with OTR on confirmed quantities for purchase orders to vendors? How are AB lines (with the vendor confirmed quantities) transferred to TM?

We are facing an issue at our current customer where purchase orders are created and an AB line is later entered manually but the status that is received in TM is complete and therefore not relevant for planning.

On top, if any deviation regarding dates/quantities with respect to the original requested values is introduced, no update is made in TM.

When displaying the OTR in TM we also see how the schedule lines have no value in the confirmed qty field.

Thanks for your advice

Hello Salvador, now the function of acknowledgment transfer is realized.

Hello Salvador,

There´s a set in OTR customizing where you define if the document will be based on confirmed or requested quantities. I dont know if this could help you.

Or maybe you can use BADI /SCMTMS/TRQ_SE_REQREQ in TM to change the info before planning...

Hello Marcelo,

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately we already were aware of the OTR customizing activity to select "planning on confirmed quantities". This is exactly what we were testing.

SAP gave us feedback on this point:

- Currently confirmations are not supported in the TM integration. Such a feature is in development and will probably be provided with the newest release

This means that for purchase orders for external vendors we have to necessarily work with OTR type on requested quantities.

The confirmed quantities feature that Marcello referred to is new as of 9.1.  You are using 9.0?  But I still don't understand SAP's note unless it was written a long time ago
