Hi,

Go to OVA2 t-code and select sales header, then select 11 standard order, then select fields and there is PO, make it as warning, so it will become mandatory now.

Hi,

For SHD0 you can check

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/132f9803d76f40e10000000a422035/content.htm

http://searchsap.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid21_gci1213076,00.html

But why u want to do this with screen variant? You can add PO number in incompletion procedure. as i suggested earlier.

Check the VOV8 - select your document type, in your case it might be unticked, Now tick the Incomplet message indicator, then try to create sales document in which information is missing, the system advises you that the document is incomplete. this case system wont allow you to save the document if document is incomplete.

Hari,

Your setting for incompletion log is correct.

Did u also checked the tick mark in VOV8 for sales order type?

Retry it once, it should work.

Hi Hari Priya,

Check in T'code VUA2 and activate the IC dailog box againest your order type and the incompletion procedure for sales header.

Try and revert back.

incomplete messages is ticked.

also check the same incomplete procedure is assigned to your document type.

As you are successfully assigned that field in incompleteion procedure , and you have ticked incomplete message indicator in document type., then the same procedure need to assign to document type.

Create new sales order, dont maintain PO number and try to save the order, while saving the order system will give u a popup for incomplete messages.
