Requirement no tab automatically taken wrong random characters in the purchase order.

I am creating a purchase order with ref to Purchase requisition, problem is in the purchase order Requirement No tab is automatically taken the random characters, even this information i dont have mention in the PR also related PO screen shot is attaching herewith. kindly please suggest me how system pull this information in PO?

the requirements number is just a text field in the purchase requisition and purchase order which could be used to enter a reference to an external (usually paper) document.

this number is then copied over from the requisition to the purchase order when the purchase order is created or can be entered directly in the PO, which was probably the case as you are saying that the field is not maintained in the PR. However, I would suggest to check the change log to be sure that it was not removed in the PR after the PO was created.

If there was no change then you have to ask the user who created the PO if he had entered it.

If that was not the case, check the change logs of the PO whether someone else changed it after the creation, then there are not many options left and it has to be assumed that is comes from a faulty program logic in a BAdI or user exit.

Hi Abjheet

it is a structure field, MEPO1211-BEDNR

The requirement tracking number thus enables you to group together the purchasing documents that exist for a certain material requirement. so please check if it takes takes from material text.

Hope it helps.
