Purchase order 4500000016 is in approval. You can only display it, not edit it.

I am getting the following error message when I try to post a goods receipt or inbound delivery on a PO.

Purchase order 4500000016 is in approval. You can only display it, not edit it.

Message no. MEPO173

I have deactivated workflow under Manage Workflows.

The PO can only be displayed after saving, not changed. Under flexible Workflow tab in PO header, Approver: 'Workflow not started yet.'

Any suggestions?

You can activate flexible workflow at customizing path: OLME -> Purchase Order -> Release strategy for Purchase orders -> Activate Flexible Workflow for Purchase Orders OR OLME -> Purchase Order -> Flexible Workflow for Purchase Orders -> Activate Flexible Workflow for Purchase Orders.

Untick the checkbox (scenario based workflow) for the corresponding document type.

This is all SAP standard? If so, you create a call in SAP OSS?

Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

Hi,

I have been stocked in S4 1809 with the same problem for the last 4 months as well. I am using nothing more than Best Practices. The same actions as Russell's result in the same deadlock.

There is really no feedback whatsoever?
