Asset PO - Material number issue

[former_member558482]

while creating the Asset PO with account assign cat A system is asking to enter material number. But all other purchasing required material number is mandatory for this we have maintained Function Authorization Z1 with parameter ID EFB  here uncheck without material tab. 

Asset PO material number not required but system giving error message 06234 " you have no authorization for items without material "

kindly help me to solve asset PO Issue.

the functional authorization is a general setting for the user to whom it is assigned.

And from this point it is clear that this user cannot create purchase orders without material number.

the only exception to this rule are service items.

So you have two options, you either create a material master that is used for assets in a PO or you assign a different functional authorization to this user.

go to OMET and create another entry where the purchase without material number is allowed and assign this one to the user
