Prevent creation of PurReq for Service

[Former Member]

Hello,

In customizing I have set up an order status profile and via the transaction control I have set that for a certain user status the creation of a material purchase requisition is forbidden.

This works fine for components, but when I have a service in the order (via control key PM03), the purchase requisition is created anyway.

I want to achieve that as long as a certain user status is active, no purchase requisitions are generated for materials or services.

Is there a way to do this ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Jurgen,

If you dont want to have PR generated, then you can set the config for PR generation to Never.

Plant Maintenance and Customer Service - Maintenance and Service Processing - Maintenance and Service Orders - Functions and Settings for Order Types - Define Change Documents, Collective Purchase Requisition, MRP relevance

So PR will not be generated, then if you need then you can change the PR status from Never to Immi

Else it is only possible via custom code as given by Jogeswara and refer below link

Regards

Terence

Hello Jurgen,

• To me it seems enhancement is the way to achieve this. You need to work with ABAPer to explore various Function Exits available in the user-exit MEREQ001 to test which one is triggering during your Service creation in IW31/IW32.
• Last resort would be to explore Implicit Enhancement Points in the Order program namely SAPLCOIH.

Let's see what other experts have about this.

Good luck
