Purchase order (subcontracting) assignment to (EPPM) project

[Expert]

Dear SAP gurus,    is it possible to assign a purchase order with item category "Subcontracting (L)" to an (EPPM) WBS element?If yes, will the follow-up documents (e.g. goods receipt) also be consistently assigned to this WBS element?    Thanks and best regards  Christoph

Hello ‎@Christopha,

If the combination is not defined then while creating PO you will receive below error;

Error - ME066 (Combination item category L/account assignment category P not defined)

Hence if not already defined in your system, use the SSCUI 101655 (Define Combination of Item Categories/Account Assignment Categories) while is equivalent to ERP transaction OMG0.

With respect to follow on documents, behavior will be same as for other POs.

Best Regards,

Vijayendra
