just go to SE18, enter the BADI name, click display and in the next screen the big button for documentation.

You can explore ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST badi to change the delivery date at time of creation of purchase order. I will not recommend changing the delivery date or any data at time of release. If you clear segregation of duties and field selections then user should not able change the any data in PO at time of release.

I have implemented ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST but when i am trying to create a PO from ME29n then the implementation is not getting triggered .

Why you are creating PO from ME29N, Does the managers or high level people create PO.. Creating PO - you should use ME21N.. Also As this BADI have multiple implementations methods, which method you are using is also important. Are you using the method item_processing ??

On what info do you know better than the requisitioner what the desired delivery date is?

And why does an approver know this better than the requisitioner and the buyer, as  ME29N is a transaction to approve a purchase order.

If you have the answer to these questions, then you just need to build your logic.

Delivery date should be = PO creation date + Lead time in days from material master from MRP2 tab.

before the PR is geting converted to PO for approval the delivery date should be as per this logic.

Hi,

Before the PR is getting converted to PO for approval the delivery date should picks - How system will be knowing when PO is getting created which in turn decide the delivery date

Better as you have logic- you can go for development where proposing Delivery date in PO = PO creation date + Lead time from material master from MRP2 tab on creation of Auto PO in t.code: ME59N from a PR.

All delay from converting the requisition into a PO and get it approved has to be covered in the purchasing processing time (customizing per purchasing org) which is considered in the planning as well.

If you permanently change the delivery date for raw materials then it will have effects on the planning for your finished goods as well, if they are not rescheduled then it might result in new requisitions for the original delivery date in the next planning run

Hi Bijay ,

I understand what you are trying to say but I am unaware where should I code this.
