hi

EKKO - for Pur Doc., header.

EKPO - for Pur Doc , items.

The above two are the important. Aprat from those the below tables are also related to PO's.

EKAB - rel documentation

EKBZ - Pur doc, Delivery costs history

EKBE - Pur Doc, History

EKKN - pur doc, account assignments

EKPV - Pur doc. shipping data

EKET - scheduled lines.

As Mr. Ranga mentioned the flow is PR - PO - GR – IR. Pur info record, source list & Quotaions(if necessary) shd be maintainted.

Hi,

As shyam mentioned EKKO & EKPO are main two tables in PUrchase order apart from these you will find many structures involved here & flow is as given below .

PR - > PO -> GR -> IR, inbetween other relevant master data are source list & purchase info record, if required Quotations will be maintained.

Dear,

EKKO & EKPO are the most important tables for Purchasing.As already indicated in this thread EKKO contains all data of the header table & EKPO contains all data of the item details.

EKPO has a 1:1 relationship with the tables EKET ( Delivery schedules) and EKKN (acct. assignment).It has a 1:n relationship with the EINE ( Inforecord for the Porg data) and 1;1 relationship with the EINA ( Inforecord Gen. data).Data flow to EKKO would be from EORD (Sourcelist)

I hope the above was useful.

Thanks in advance,

Document flow may vary based on the purchase order type.

1.Pur.req - > Pur.Order ( Type NB:standard PO) - > GR (aginst PO) - > IR.

2.Pur.req - > Pur.Order ( Type UB:stock transfer order) - > GR( against O/B delivery) -> IR.

3.Sales order - > pur.req - > Pur.Order ( Type NB/UB) -> GR ( against PO/ OB )

-> IR

4.Pur.Order ( Type FO:Frame Workorder ) - > GR (against PO ) - > IR

Note : An above flow may vary for the indirect material and service procurement.
