SPRO-> IMG-> MM-> Purchasing-> Messages-> Output Control->Message Types->Define Message Types for Purchase Order-> Fine-Tuned Control: Purchase Order

Maintain the new output type with Chnage operation in the configuration

This should resolve ur issue

Hello Guys,

I have created new message type which should get triggered after PO document creation/change.

I have assigned this message type to PO type using MN04. I have removed all other message types assigned to this order type.

However when document is PO created is created, I am not able to see any output assigned to PO.

When I go in change mode, and try to manually trigger new output message type, system is not showing me new message type but showing all old message types as possible entries.

Have I missed any config.

Hello,

What do you mean PO change,

Not any modification in PO will trigger a re-print. Example if I change just the " PO item text or release text" no reprint will be triggered.

Only field that are already mentionned in table T166P are relevant for reprint.

You can maintain entry in this table through the below link:

Transaction OLME>Purchasing>Messages---> Text for messages

Hello,

I have checked option: Fine tuned Control (For purchase Order)

I am using conditiojn type NEU and Operation indicator 1 and 2 (ie Create and change) both are active. I am able to get message type triggered after creation. But not able to get message type triggered after change.

Are there specific fields in PO which can trigger output.

Hi,

Yes you can configure the system to trigger an output only when certain fields are changed.

Config Path:

Materials Management->Purchasing->Messages->Fields Relevant to Printouts of Changes.

This contains a list of fields that can potentially trigger a message on change. The first check box - "Chge-Prnt-Rel- Purch Order" needs to be checked to trigger an output.

Hope that helps.

Yes based on the change in certain fields this can be controlled.

SPRO-> IMG-> MM-> Purchasing-> Messages->Fields Relevant to Printouts of Changes

Check the field you are change will trigger a change message

Usually standard fields related to Material like qty, price, delivery date trigger the changes

Thanks & Regards
