PO print output - Version creation

[Former Member]

Hi,

This requirement is related to creation of version if any changes to PO are made but the Print out has not been taken yet.

Scenarion is as below:

There are two outputs associated with PO.

NEU - Print

NEU - EDI

Both these outputs are processed by ME9F ( Send with Own transaction option in output configuration).

Now consider that PO is released and Print output is processed. EDI output is also processed.

If we change PO, a new version gets triggered and in turn creates change output print form also.

This is ideal process.

Consider a case where in after Po release, user processed EDI output. He did not take the print out so far.

Some one goes and changes the PO. Now the new version will not be created because still the PO print output has not been processed. And this is the issue. As the Po is released, if any changes are made after that should trigger Version control.

We want to trigger version control even in case where PO is released but Print output has not been processed but still some one changes the PO.

Can this be done by some configuration. If it requires coding , any pointers to the same would be really helpful.

Hi Shahuraj,

I am also having similar requirement. The problem which you are facing we also have same problem and we are searching for solution . Did you get any solution regarding this ? Please guide me.

I have one additional issue, the output type which we created gets triggered on each Change on PO and mail goes to Vendor . However we want to send mail to vendor only if new Version gets created, do not want to send / trigger output if irrelevant version change occurrs on PO .

For this we tried VOFM ( new Routine ) , but it triggers when we create new PO and till we release and process it. But after this when we go to Me22N and create new Version then it not triggers. When debugged standard code, came to knw that we cant use routine because in " Reprint " case it not goes in routine created from VOFM .

please advice if you have any solution. Thanks.

Sujit .
