How to change the committment item for GL acct in PO

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

After the PO created, User wants to change the commitment item for GL acct 330118 temporarily from 330001 to 330000 due to budget constraint. However after budget has been topped up, we are unable to change back to the correct no. Even we have modified the Asset Master and GL masters also. But in PO we are not able to change the commitment item.

Kindly help to solve this issue.

If so,reverse the GRN and do.

Please make sure that the field is optional is SPRO as per defined path.
