PO qty should not be more than PR qty

[Former Member]

Dear All,

My Client is having the requirement , first time during the conversion of PR to PO , system will allow to create the PO with the larger qty(as vendor may supply some material with some specific lot size, so it is required to create PO with the larger qty) but the when the user try to create the PO 2nd time by using the same PR no (which already got converted to the PO), system should not allow , as there no balance qty is available in the PR to get converted into PO. and error mesg should come , that PO already exists for this PR.

Please suggest , what can be done.

Thanks & Regards

HI,

IN REAL PRACTISE IT IS TRUE THAT ONLY ONE PR CONVERTED TO PO ITEM.AND FOR THIS WAY SAP SYSTEM DESIGNS. AS U KNOW THAT WHATS THE CORRECT MRP PROCEDURE . BUT IFF U WANTS TO CONVERTED THIS PR TO PO THEN U MAY USE ME21N SCREEN AND MAKE DOCUMENT OVERVIEW ON AND SELECT CORRECT PR NO AND ADPPT THIS PR. BUT U SHOULD ASSIGN THE THE CORRECT VENDOR TO PR. THEN IT WILL AUTMATICALLY COPIED ALL THE DATA FRM PR.(IFF VALUATION PRICE MENTIONED THERE) NEITHER IT WILL TAKE FRM PREVIOUS PO. I THINK U R CLEARED.

Hi Nitin,

Please go to; Purchasing - Environment Data - Define Attributes of System Messages

under "System messages" you'll find messages you can add. Activate message ME - 204 with message category "E"

Hi ,

Message no ME-224 is not working for this scenario.

My requirement is that when I am creating the PO w.r.t PR for the first time , it should allow the greater qty and also I want to restrict that during 2nd time PO creation w.r.t PR , system should not allow to create the PR , as its full qty(even more specified in PR) is already got converted to PO.

I tried with 06/76 message , but during the first time PO creation only(when I am converting the PR to PO, system is not allowing to convert PR to PO whose qty is more than PR qty), which is not desired.

Please suggest the other way out.
