control indicator

[#1]

can u please explain once again?

basically, control indicator allows the differentiation between the various kinds of purchasing document.

It makes a distinguish between a standard PO and a stock transport order?

For model specification and outline agreement req. the control indicator----R?

Does R belongs to standard PO?

other puchasing documents like EC,FO,IN,NB are blank(that means these are

stock transport orders)?

I haven't understood the control indicator concept?

please explain me once again?

Hi,

this has been answer on another recent question.

There are many document types for POs etc. and they all are treated in exactly the same basi c way EXCEPT for STOs and so the system needs this flag to identify the document types that are to use the STO process as opposed to the normal PO process.

BLANK means that they are NOT transport orders.

For requisitions the same applies except that there is a special requisition type for contracts and this again usess a different process to normal requisitions and so the system needs this flag to indicate if this special process applies (especially if you have created new document types)
