Controlling the number of times reminders are send for Order acknowledgment

[former_member459660]

Dear All

Currently we are setting up the Order acknowledgement reminders to Purchase Orders

We are using the standard SAP output type AUFB and PO has Acknowledgement required box flagged also.

According to standard SAP way, then ME92F transaction can send the reminders until the  Order Acknowledgment filed in PO confirmations tab is filled in with some value (some text)

This part is working fine.

The requirement is to have reminders send not based on this field , but send reminders only for particular number of times

So for example for a PO item, the AUFB reminder should be sent only 3 times (not that it should be send till order acknowledgement field is filled )

Can we achieve this standard SAP?

Please let me know your thoughts

Regards

extend the logic of requirement 107 which is assigned to output type AUFB in the message schema

Thanks a lot Jurgen

i am contacting ABAPer on this.

Will it be possible for you to provide  some more details ,if in any of the scenarios this requirement was achieved. This would help us more.

No I have not implemented such a scenario as it makes less sense.

I am missing the next or final step in your scenario.

Why should I stop sending reminders if the vendor does not react?

For me the next step would be to cancel the order and search for an alternative vendor.

This would stop sending reminders automatically.

Or I would enter a new delivery date after having reached out to the vendor by telephone, and this will as well stop sending reminders until he gets as well late.

So I actually do not see a use case.
