We want to change our PUR parameter in order to have the possibility to choose PO Number instead of Supplier Number during the "Maintain Receipt" process.

We tried this in our test system before informing the enduser but unfortunately not succeeded.

The problem is, we can not register different PO lines to different packing slip numbers.
I think it is obvious why we need this.

Attached you will find an example showing the problem.

It is a little urgent, because the enduser needs to have a solution for this.


Do you have any suggestion to solve the situation...

Hi,
You forgot to attach the example.
Anyways, could you tell us what you have defined in Form2 of Maintain Purchase Order Parameters {tdpur4100m000} for the field "Maintain Receipts by Receipt/Order Number"? If you want to maintain the receipts based on the order number then this field should have Order Number selected.

Sorry , and thank you for reminder !

An example file is now attached. We are working with the option "Supplier" so far. But now we want to make receipt for a particular Po line.

With ref to your example:
Two ways to fix that problem.
1) Go to that particular receipt number (283717) and create back orders for all those lines (that's to be received with a new receipt number), thus eliminating their link with that receipt number.
Or
2) Go to the particular receipt number delete those lines (that's to be received with a new receipt number) from that receipt number.

Both of the above could have been done at the time you received the position no. 6.

I am not sure of any parameter setting to block all the lines from being associated to the same receipt number at the time of receiving one of the lines.

Thank you for the answer.

For both solutions the enduser will have extra work to do. Aim was to make his/her life easier. So, it seems that changing the parameter will not help us.

We did a little modification to it where system deletes the receipt lines (for position that is not received) when user exits from the session or try to enter a new receipt. This is a small customization.

Thank you for the suggestion. We may try to make a similar customization, if we would decide to change the standard vrc at that session.
