Hi,

I could not find any std report.

You can create a small Query (SQ01) by referring table EKPO.

select following fields in display.

EBELN - PO no

EBELP - PO line item

KONNR - Agreement no.

KTPNR - Agreement item no.

Or may be you can use table EKAB to fetch the same data (KONNR/KTPNR/EBELN/EBELP)

Hi,

You can get list of purchase orders created against contract.

1. ME33K - tip in the contract no

2. select the line item

3. click the History button

You will get list.

Hello Ling,

Contract can be created for qty & value contract & Purchase orders are considered as Contract Release Order which can be created with reference to the contract

You can create the Release order PO as long as value or qty of contract get exhausted, you can see the details of release oder in contract history.

Hope it is clear

I mean some day I forget the contract number.

and I want to know which contract does the PO reference?

another question is :

when I create second contract , SAP give a warning message , it is said: Target quantity exceeded by 500 ST.

but I can create PO anyway.

I want to give a error message , and can't create any PO if target quantity exceed original quantity.

Thanks

Hello

you can see the details in EKKO & EKPO

For the Target quantity to give a error message in PO, Please check the message 06042 & 06078 & set as error Message.

it will not allow the user to create more QTY in PO than contract

Thanks

Hi Rajesh Dalal:

thanks for your answer.

Hi,

That was the warning message. Convert that to Error Message.

SPRO -> Material Mgmt -> Purchasing -> Environment data -> Define Attributes of System Messages

Select the relevant message and make it Error.

Hello Ling,

Purchase orders are considered as Contract Release Order, so if you are referring to contract, until the contract amount or quantity is fulfilled, you can make as many Pos/Contract Release Order referring to a contract.

So In your case both Purchase Orders are referring to the same Contract.
