Customer PO no in invoice.. where to see it

[Former Member]

Can some one plzz tell me how to see customer PO no in invoice/billing VF01 i need to get the PO number .. that is entered in Sales order VA01...i know about the field bstnk_vf in VBRK ... but sometimes the bstnk_vf field value is not getting filled though i have entered PO NO in VA01... If possible can some one tell me when it will get filled and when it will not...

Where can we see the PO no in VF02?

I created the sales order then the o/b delivery with picking/packing and PGI ,then in VF01 i created the billing doc(invoice f2)....

The same is the case for the field "Assignment" in billing document. Here the reference will flow based on the control you assigned in VTFL "Assignment Number" at header level. This will also be passed on to FI which you can see these fields if you run FBL5N

i have done the settings in VTFL...

Since i am using Invoice (F2 ) , and dont know the exact delivery type , i changed all the INVOICE (F2) related REFERNCE NUMBER to A... there are like 5-6 delivery type for invoice type f2...

But when i check in vf02 its still displaying the invoice number only instead of PO no... what do u think could be the problem ... plzzz reply

In VF02, click "Goto --> Header --> Header. There you can see a field "Reference" (Field Name XBLNR). The reference number is set in the document flow according to control and taken into the financial accounting document.

You can set the customer order number, the order number, the delivery number, the billing number or the external delivery number as reference number.

To know where it is copy control, Go to VTFL, select your Delivery Type and Billing Type and click on blue lens on top so that to your right side, you can see a Field "Reference number". There if you maintain

- A - in billing, customer PO will flow

- B - in billing, Sales Order number will flow

- C - in billing, Delivery reference will flow

The reference number is a piece of additional information forwarded from SD and FI.

thanks

Hi,

in VF02 Screen Follow the Path

Menu Bar:> Goto> Item--> Item Purchase Order Data.

Here you can see your purchase order Data.

If you have maintained the PO number in SO and maintained proper copy control settings these datas will automatically copieed from that.

Hope this will help.

Reward point if helpful.
