Sales order to purchase requisition items

[Former Member]

Hello Experts:

I have a situation in which Sales order is created via IDOC.

Line 10 and Line 30 of Sales order creates a purchase requisition and subsequently a purchase order.

What I see in the document flow is following-

1. Line 10 of Sales order is referenced by Line 10 of PO.

2. Line 30 of Sales order is referenced by Line 20 of PO.

3. Line 30 of Sales order is referenced by Line 10 of PO. (This is the issue)

I am not able to figure out why line 30 of Sales order is referenced again by Line 10 of PO.

Pls help.

Thanks,

RR

Hello,

I have the same problem and I resolve it with report ZZPURD01 ( see) note 1080954.

My problem : One item of sale order with reference at 2 items of purchase order.

Thanks Laurent, but the client is reluctant to implement a note for this.

They have asked me to find another solution.

Hello

Sorry but I have not another solution.

It's not to implement a note but to create a program because there is an
error in sale document flow. This program make a correction in flow document
(table VBFA) for the sale order only.

Best regard

Ray,

What I see in the document flow is following-

1. Line 10 of Sales order is referenced by Line 10 of PO.
2. Line 30 of Sales order is referenced by Line 20 of PO.
3. Line 30 of Sales order is referenced by Line 10 of PO. (This is the issue)

I am not able to figure out why line 30 of Sales order is referenced again by Line 10 of PO.

Can you check 2? Is this correct? or should this be Line 20 of sales order is.......

Please paste SO, PR and PO here.

added: give some information about the business. Why are you creating these PRs and POs with ref. to SOs? Thanks!

TW,

You are right, the process is as follows

SO (created through idoc) > PR > PO

In this particular instance, line 20 of SO was in stock, hence PR/PO are not created for that.

This is an intercompany scenario, in which our European subsidiary places a SO via IDOC. Since

Line item 10 and item 20 of SO were not in stock, the PR was created and subsequently a PO was created for the same.  I will attach a screenshot so you get a better idea.

Thanks,

RR

Hi Phanikumar,

It was a custom doc. type. I have attached the screenshots

Thanks,

Based on sales order we will create First PR followed by PO.

But in your case  PO first--then sales order

Can you confirm this??

Phanikumar,

From what I understand, the process is as follows -

SO (created through idoc) > PR > PO

Hi RR,

For your issue, it depended on what kind of converting rule was used from PR to PO, double check the reference PR information in PO.

Hi Tao,

I am not much familiar with MM. Can you explain in detail what you mean.

Through which transaction code, you have converted PR to PO.  For information, in ME59N, you have the option to select "Per Requisition Item".

Hi Lakshmipathi,

The user uses ME21N to create PO.

Thanks,

Hi RR,

You can use t-code ME23N with the PO number, go to the column purchase requisition in item overview, you will see the PR number. And then double click the PR number, go to display the detailed information of PR, you will find the reference of sales order line item on the tab page account assignment in item detail.
