How to delete output in purchase orders automatically?

[former_member657006]

There is a problem of double sending purchase orders to vendor 1214.

Purchase orders for this vendor have outputs for NEU "externes senden" and ZEDI - NEU for EDI (scrinshot below). We think that's the problem why double sending PO.

Of course it is possible in each purchase order to manually delete output NEU "externes senden", but it is very long as there are a lot of orders. Is it possible to do it somehow automatically? For example, is there a customizing to create only one output (ZEDI - NEU for EDI) for this vendor 1214 when you create an purchase order?

I will be glad to any advice. Thank you!

Have a look at the output condition records and the access sequence assigned to NEU output in general.

Any specific reason you are using ZEDI for EDI in stead of NEU?

Hello Rob,
thank you for your advice!

1) "Any specific reason you are using ZEDI for EDI in stead of NEU?" -

This is the user's wish. I would choose the output NEU and left it, and deleted the output ZEDI for EDI. Would you also choose NEU as the main one?

2) "Have a look at the output condition records and the access sequence assigned to NEU output in general."

Thank you very much for a good idea! Could you describe where and how this can be done please?


THANKS in advance!

1) NEU can also be used for EDI - so solely the requirement to send the PO via EDI does not justify using a separate ZEDI output. (But that does of course not mean there might be business specific reasons why your company has a ZEDI output)

2) You can check via t-code NACE. From there you can check the condition records, the output procedure, output type settings and access sequences.
