Way to Identify PO for Partial Cancellation

Former Member

Hello All,

  Has anyone come across a way to deal with this scenario in SAP?   MRP will give a purchase order an exception 20 only if the entire PO quantity is in excess.  In many cases we only need a partial quantity of the material and the rest could be cancelled.  We don't have a way to identify those purchase orders where we could reduce the PO quantity to avoid excess inventory.  Has anyone been able to find a way to identify these purchase orders available for quantity reduction?

in MD04 you can see your open POs along with the calculated availability. So it should not be an issue to find the PO which can be reduced.

Hi,

How system going to decide which item in the purchase to be cancelled or quantity need to be reduced.

It's you or your business, need to decide the vital decision.

But you can get detailed report in table EKBE with selection of fields EBELN (PO number), EBELP (PO item) and ELIKZ ("Delivery Completed" Indicator) where you can find report ONLY all good receipt PO numbers with goods receipt done for PO completely with indicator X in field ELIKZ and all other PO in list are partially goods receipted and then proceed with your action plan!

NOTE:

Check table EKPO and go for with PO number with field LOEKZ( Deletion Indicator in Purchasing Document) where you have  “L” show which are PO are deleted
