Auto PO from GR

[YOGENDRA_024]

This process is used to create automatic purchase order while doing the GR.

There are some cases when we ask vendor to supply the goods without giving the PO. The vendor then sends the material with the invoice. Now the requirement is to generate the GR/IR account liability while posting the GR.

By using this functionality the PO will be created automatically while doing MIGO for mvt 101 and the price for the PO can be determined from the info record.

Prerequisite for this process

• Assign Standard purchasing org to plant
• Check Auto PO in movement type config
• Enable Auto PO in material master
• Enable Auto PO in Business Partner (FLVN01)
• Maintain purchasing info record in combination with above data

1. Assign Standard purchasing organization to plant

SPRO-->Enterprise Structure-->Assignment-->Assign standard purchasing org to plant

2 .Tick create PO automatically in movement type configuration

TCode : OMJJ

Path : SPRO-->MM-->Inv Management & Physical Inventory-->Movement Type--> Copy/Change Mvt Type

3. Enable Auto PO in Material Master

TCode : MM01/MM02

4. Enable Auto PO for Business partner

TCode : BP

5. Maintain Purchasing Info Record

TCode : ME11

Once the necessary settings are done proceed for goods receipt

TCode MIGO

Transaction Event - "A01 - Goods Receipt"

Reference Document -  "R10 - Other"

"Vendor can be made mandatory for this case by changing field selection of movement type 101 (LIFNR as mandatory)"

After saving the GR , PO gets generated automatically.

Display Goods Receipt document

Check PO

Accounting entries

GR/IR liability gets created.

Now the Vendor invoice verification can be done for this PO.

This scenario can also be used when vendor has supplied excess quantity with respect to the PO.

** Using the same config for movement type 161 we can also create return PO automatically.
