Dear Gopala,

if you would like to see the purchase order data from the sales order, you can go to the document flow. Here you can see all information about the purchase order which is relevant for the sales order (for example, confirmation status etc.).

Only here, for example, you can see in the sales order, if the corresponding purchase order is confirmed or not. (I guess, we speak about the third-party process).

I hope, this info helps you further.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Since End customer's Purchase order is external document for SAP system,there is no provision as such to store the purchase order directly into the system.

But if the bussiness process requires this details then you can make use of sales document type for Inquiery (IN).In inquiery you can maintain the details received from the customers like customer code,Quantity,Material,Pricing etc.

You can create the next cycle as sales order with reference to inquiery.

Second advantage can be you can get in sales order document flow the reference of Customer's PO ( IN ) to keep track of the details for reporting purpose.

Reward points if useful
