Stop PR creation when order is incomplete

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have a requirement to stop PR (Purchase requisition) creation from 'Third party' sales order item, when the order is incomplete. I had looked at forums and SAP notes, but couldnt find any solution.

Incomplete TAN orders do not allow a delivery doc to be raised.  However TAS orders that are incomplete allow  PO's to be raised.   Result -  we order the goods, they are shipped to our customers, but we are unable to bill on soft receipt. Why is this behaviour?

Please advice.

Thank you,

Rajesh.

Dear,

Do you know if the PO is incomplete ,we can create Sales Order vice versa. But if you want to over come this kind of things then we need to take help from ABAPer to do some thing in User Exit Level to overcome them.

Thanks,

Hi Rajesh,

In standard PR creation is blocked for variety of reasons

such as

1. If order type is missing in schedule line category

2. If plant data is not entered in the line item

3. If credit block is set

4. If any user status at sales order

5. Sufficient authorization is not available

These will forbid automatic creation of PR. If you want any other value to forbid PR creation, just maintain user status which can forbid creation of PR

hope it is clear

Hi,

as commented by Shiva Ram, have a look at oss note 210793 (navigate from 210817) where you can see the reasons why system won't create a PR.

You may try, with the help of an abaper, to leave Purchasing Group field blank in case sales order is incomplete (MV45AFZZ FORM USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT)

Luck!

Check the incompletion procedures assigned to schedule line category of the third party item. You can refer the OSS Note 210817 - Incomplete schedule line: Item for this guidance.
