[Former Member]

how to find the vaildity period for a Purchase requisition and purchase order? if after validity period, how to extend PR and PO? should we create another PO?

can we create a PO with two vendors, one for raw material purchase and the other for freight vendor? any configuration or setting we needed?

Hi,

What type of PR and PO you are using for your procurement process?

In general PO created with validity period and limits  for procurement process and if expired validity period,you can create a new PO OR extend the validity period for old PO but its all depends on business call.

In a purchase order,you can have following options:

Option-1:
Purchase order can be created with main vendor where same main vendor play role of  material vendor and freight vendor.

Option-2:
Purchase order can be created with main vendor(material vendor) and if needed ,you can have freight vendor in same purchase order by selecting freight condition type --> go to details -> enter freight vendor and save.

Refer thread which already discussed about having freight vendor in Purchase order.

If you have Framework purchase order(purchase order document type FO), you can enter Validity Start

& Validity End in purchase order Header level in Additional data TAB

Hi,

can you explain in more details exact requierment ?

Conditions in PO are time independent and if you have freight condition type in pricing procedure then in PO under condition tab you can enter freight vendor Code selecting "condition details icon "

also can post MIRO for same vendor code selecting layout planned delivery cost in MIRO
