PO Number and PO Details

Hi,

As standard SAP behavior and by default the system copies the contents of "PO Number" (sales order header) into "PO Details" (sales order item) when we add a new item via VA02. How can I prevent it?

Ideally I would like to allow the system to do so while the sales order is created via VA01.
However when the user adds a new item he is asked (our business rule) to leave the field empty.
Unfortunately our users forget to do so quite often what causes us some troubles with customer feedback.
Sales orders are created automatically via incoming interface (not EDI!).
"PO Number" and "PO Details" contain customer's own ID numbers.
However new added items are our additional services not initially ordered by the customer (no ID number) but compulsory for order execution.
Once the order is created and processed we automatically provide feedback to customer via outcoming interface.

The presence of values in "PO Details" of new items is causing a problem in our communication with customers.

Hi,

As you know the field names for Customer PO at header and item are same as VBKD-BSTKD

so the value is being determined as same for all Items

If you want to modify, check the Include program

MV45AI0V_VBKD-BSTKD_PRUEFEN where you can enhance based on the Line Item Number

VBKD - POSNR

hope it helps

thanks
