Demerger Purchase order number range.

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

We have demerger of 1 of hte business of the company & new entity will be using same client which we are using.

We will be Creating new Purcharse orders with open amounts for new legal entities.

Here requirement for purchase order number range is as belows. How can we achieve this.

Our advice for number range is to use a prefix + old PO number, to ensure the incoming invoices can be easily assigned.

Thanks,

Kiran

Hi,

Instead of  prefix + old PO number, you can go for new PO document type ZLPO for Legacy PO with extenal numbering.

You can create new PO number range with external numbering

and

assign the new number range number to a new PO document type ZLPO for Legacy PO

HI,

   You may define external number range as shown below, for example:

   Assign the same as external number range for the PO Doc type:

   While creating the PO, maintain the number range externally with the required prefix + old PO number.

Test the same and revert back.
