PO field in MB51/MSEG when posted through ME2O

Hi All,

We need to have a mapping for materials sent to vendor against PO#, because we are sending same material to same vendor for different products, PO# is the only field that can help us in reporting of O/S products.

I have created variant in SHD0 and made PO mandatory. This gives me PO# in MB51 and fulfills my requirement but in ME2O, even if I am posting GI against PO, field remain blank in MB51.

I have tried making PO mandatory in OMJJ but of no use.

Can anyone help us out here.

Hello,

Please refer SAP Note 458938 - FAQ: SC stock monitoring list, Transaction ME2O:

Question: You post a goods issue using Transaction ME2O or you create a delivery. Why is the purchase order history not updated?

Answer: Even though Transaction ME2O uses the component quantities from the individual purchase order items, it does not assemble any purchase-order-related stock. For this reason, purchase orders are not assigned to any quantities directly. The evaluation of the stock of material is therefore always a cumulative analysis of all the requirements of a material over time. The "closing stock balance" for each material displays whether there is currently an excess coverage or a stock shortage, or whether the requirements and the stock are equal. In principle, you can configure the stock of material provided to vendor with higher quantities than the current component requirements. This option is frequently used if, for example, you want to build subcontractor buffer stocks for recurring subcontracting.
