Confirmation control key Issue.

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have recently upgraded with support pack (EP4). Issue is Able to receive Goods receipt ( Move 101) against Purchase order with conformation control. key ( PO Item details confirmation tab activated with 0001 confirmations control key)

But we supposed to not receive the Goods receipt against PO when confirmation control key activated in the PO. Usually whenever we post goods receipt first we remove the confirmation control key in the PO and put blank then only we able to post Goods receipt.

Now without changing confirmation control key able to post GR but we dont want this. Any body help us how to solve this issue.

Appreciated your help.

GO to SPRO-MM-purchasing-confirmation-set up confirmation control

here select your conformation key which is 0001 and se;ect the confirmation sequence

here check the GR relevant indicator than you are good.

Hi Charlie,

Thanks for the reply. It will not solve the issue. Pl. see message.

Specifies that the relevant confirmation category is cancelled out by a goods receipt.This indicator is needed to close transactions for materials planning purposes.

When goods are received against a PO, materials planning and control must know that this GR relates to the last confirmation you received.

This means that only one confirmation category can have the indicator 'GR relevant'.

Examples

If, for example, a GR of 200 pc of the material Steel 1 is entered against a PO item for 200 pc after an inbound delivery marked as GR-relevant has been posted, the inbound delivery is cancelled out by the goods receipt.

Already I have checked in develpment box where I dont have issue this indicatior is not selected in dev box.

We will not receive any inbound delivery but we want this confirmation control key activated in the PO. So no body can post GR without changing PO.

I think EP4 support pack changed some default setting and not sure what is that.

Thanks
