PR into PO - return delivery

[Former Member]

Hello,

i have a PR for a return delivery and want to convert this PR with ME57 into a PO (for return too).

But when i use the ME57 and want to convert the PR, the new PO has not the same quantity of materials as the PR. The new PO has always the quantity of materials of the reference document (see under "Returns" in PO). The reference documentwhich is the PO of the purchasing process.

How could i handle that the PO get the quantity from the PR (with ME57)?

I would be happy about every message.

This is quite not clear. Can you able to see any reference document number in return PO ? Does your 'Returns' is a tab or any field ?

There might be some custom development causes the behavior.

By the way, there are no provision to create a return purchase requisition in standard SAP.

Hello Dibyendu,

yes in the return PO i can see a reference document number. This number is the number of the purchasing PO, when i orderd the material.

This (field or tab) is customized in your organization. Please consult with your ABAP team for further details.

Can you please share a screen shot of this field in PO?

In the return PO for every item. (Reference document number= number of old PO, when i ordered the material)

I believe, it's a sap standard field.

I am not sure as because your system has 'Defense solution' (that's because you are able to process requisition with return delivery). Can you please press F1 on the field (reference document) and check the technical field name.

I am not aware of the 'returns' tab in purchase order. Your field's technical name is showing REFBS.

As per this KBA document 2066335 - Field REFBS is not filled when creating a purchase order with reference to an old one, system will not store any value in this field.

Please check if the badi ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST is active in your system.

There are many OSS notes related to an Industry Solution Defense when searching with: requistion "return delivery"

there is also a business function "advanced returns management"

The standard has no requisitions for returns.

To help you further you should mention which solution you have implemented.
