Hi experts.

I have a big question. I have been spend many hours in this site to find an answer about if I can use the BAPI_PO_CREATE1, to create a Purchase Order with reference to a Purchase Requisition. I could n ot find nothing about this.

Can somebody tell me if can I use it?

There are some threads that say "It is posible", but I would like to know the Structure name and the field name where I have to put the Purchase Requisition in the BAPI to create my PO.

I hope that somebody can help me.

Thanks a lot!!

Best Regards.

The field is available in POITEM structure, fields are PREQ_NO and PREQ_ITEM.

This should work, try it out. Ensure that you have update structure propoerly updated for these fields (POITEMX)

I know this is an ancient topic, but in order to have all the necessary info together: (for everyone's future reference)

How to create a PO with reference to a Purchase requisition which is properly released and assigned:

Bapi_po_create1

POHeader: document type (also POHEADERX)

POItem : item number, plant, storage location, PR number, PR item (also POItemx)

and that should be all! it would be useful if SAP clarified that in their documentation because this is a very common scenario...

Don't know if anyone still looks at this post, but thanks Rob for giving such a simple explanation of how to use the BAPI to convert a purchase requisition. Works a treat.
