Custom screen field not displayed in the Screen ME21n

Former Member

Hi,

I created a custom screen field in ME21n and tried creating purchase order with data in the custom screen field, I was succesfull in updating the table with the custome field data in the table but when i tried creating a purchase order by giving the reference document number (Existing Purchase order) which has the custom field data I am not able to see the custom data in the screen but i could find rest of the data in the screen. Can any one help me on this? what could be the reason?

BR,

Sudheer

Hi,

When you create with refference, SAP copies only standard fields i think. You may need to findout appropriate customer exit and code there for copying your custom fields.

Thanks,

Hi,

Is there any customer exit which will help me out to show the custome field value in the screen (ME21n) when creating a PO using reference document number?

Sudheer a ,

hello as far as i have understood your problem ,

you must have written a logic in the PAI modules when you create a NEW po but when you create with refrence to your existing you need to fethc the Custom TAB fields in the PBO ( Hope in your case they are they are z fields) of your PO

if you are implimenting EXIT use the POB module to populate the fields on the customer tab in your screen fields ...!

Hope my explanation solves your problem
