Confirmation control key behaviour

[bhushan_bivalkar]

Hi

I have some some questions about Confirmation control key

For example purpose consider 9001 and 9002 keys only.

Key 9001 : Order acknow EDI . If I use this key in PO,  I can post GRN without any shipment notification received or without any acknowledgement

Key 9002 : Order ackn w/ GR  If I use this key in PO ,  and I do not have any acknowledgement I can not post GR

So I question is that where the settings are maintained I checked the Confirmation control in Purchasing but I did not found any setting

If I want to create new key, how can i set control of this

in OLME > Confirmations > confirmation control

select your confirmation control key and click the  folder.for the sequence on the left.

if you do not have a check mark for GR relevant, then you can post receipts even the requested confirmation is not made.

And new control keys are as well setup in that customizing.

I have a question about GR relevant indicator and GR assignment indicator in Vendor confirmations . If you see the screenshots given

9001 and LA is GR relevant

9002 and LA is marked as GR rel and GR assignment both.

So if in PO there is 9001 is used then I can do the GR without entering the LA(shipping notification) ?

If 9002 is used in PO then there should be AB then LA then only GR is possible . In case of 9002 , LA is must in PO

Please explain

Hi

I am attaching here the screenshots .

For both the keys 9001 and 9002 there is no check box activated GR relevant then for 9002 why the GR is not possible without confirmation ?

Is there any additional settings are there ?

Also the Confirmation categories there are some additional settings?
