Based document series need to be copied to target document

[Former Member]

Hi,

There are 4 document series for every marketing document as Manufacturing - Series 1, Trading - Series 2, Retail - Series 3, Wholesale - Series 4, Shoppers - Series 5.

Now User A is been given permission / authorization for document series 1 and 2 which is for Manufacturing and Trading and user B is given permission for document series 3,4 and 5 for Retail, Wholesale and Shoppers. Now when user B makes a sales order in say Wholesale which is document series 4 and then makes a delivery based on the sales order it is seen that in delivery note he has to again select the document series manually which is series 4 Wholesale. Why it is not possible to copy the based document series to the target document.

Again for example user A makes PO in series 1 which is Manufacturing and then makes a Good Reciept PO then again he has to select the document series in the target document as 1 manually.

Is there any way by which the base document series can be copied to the target document without manually selecting the same as its creates a mess if the user forgets to select the document series in the target document....Means SO is made in in Wholesales and Delivery is done in Shoppers. No default series also can be done as in any series as per requirement the user does the base document and he wants that once he put the series in the base document then automatically while doing the target document the base document series should be selected.

Kindly let me know is there any possibility in SBO 2005B.

Dear Kamalesh

Please set the series by user Default in document numbering series, so that one u loging in to that user it will show particular user series only...

Dear Shamseer,

Default series has been set for that particular user. But for that user only 2-3 series are defined as per clients requirement. Now user wants that once in the base document the series is selected. All the corresponding target document should come with the same series ( Note all marketing document has the same series name but have diffrent series number )

Kamlesh,

Series are not data that belong to the document which gets copied from base document to a target document. Series are managed by the system and they are independent for each document.

That is why they do not get copied

Dear Suda,

Thanks for the reply but can you suggest any way around by which my requirement be solved. Its a very basic requirement which should happen in SBO...These small matters SAP should consider as they are small but have a big impact.
