TECO issue due to subcontracting switch on production order

[Former Member]

When we are having an issue trying to TECO a production order. We get the following message:

Error during the deletion of purchase requisition.

We found an operation on the production order that has a subcontracting switch on for some reason u2013 we donu2019t use the subcontracting feature. This production order has a purchase order and the switch for subcontracting is greyed out.

We tried deleting the line item on the purchase order but that did not work either. The field is on table AFVC and data element FRDLB which we need to blank out.

Any suggestions on how to get access to this field to blank it out other than a direct table update?

Thanks,

Craig

Dear,

In the production order, material components with material provision indicator 'L' are assigned to an external processing operation for which the subcontracting indicator is set. The Res/PurcRq indicator (RESBD-AUDISP) is set to '1'

Please check the operion control kay and operation details screen of routing in CA02

If you reset the subcontracting indicator (AFVGD-FRDLB) in the operation, the Res/PurcRq indicator remains on '1'. This behavior is incorrect since the flag should be set depending on the Res/PurRq indicator of the order header.

Solution Using transaction SE80 call up function group CONW. Double click on screen 1510 and hit the Screen Layout button. Toggle to change mode and double click on the Subcontracting incicator (field AFVGD-FRDLB) to bring up another editing window. Input the value I_A into screen group three by typing I space A. Activate.

Thank you for your response. We however chose to override the screen to allow access to turn the indicator off.
