Use to link Purchase requisition document Type with Purchase document Type

[Former Member]

Hi

Under IMG - MM - Purchase Orders - Define Document types.

There is a provision to attach Purchase requisition type with Purchase Order Document Types with Item category.

Can anyone pls explain me the use of that ?

Hi,

It means that which item categories allowed for that Perticular document type of PO. like for document type NB allowed item categories are standard,B,K,L,S,T,W.

And combination of purchase requision(doc type) with item category and PO(doc type).

this combination allow you to create Po against the Purchase requision.If combination is not there then you won't be able to create the pO against that PR.

Thanx

Hi sandeep,

Item Category

The item category determines the field selection and whether any additional data screens are shown.

In addition, it determines whether a goods receipt or invoice receipt is to follow.by this key the procurement of a material or service item is controlled.

Link- Document type:

This means follow-on document types i.e whenever you are creating the Purchasing Documents w.r.t. PR with defined Item category , system allow you to create the Purchasing document with mentain reference document type only.i.e

This is nothing but combination of document type to create the Purchasing doc w.r. t. Purchase requsition.
