Plant Specific Settings for ME59N Auto PO Creation

[pacemaker]

Hello,

we have plant specific setting enabled in SAP for Vendors/Supplier (stored in LFM2 Table).

Auto PO is one of the options that is available.

It looks like SAP is not taking this setting into account when converting PR into POs with ME59N Transaction.

Only the general Setting (LFM1 Table) is considered,

Is there any OSS Note or any other (standard) way to include those settings into the Logic of ME59N Transaction to control this "Automatic PO"-Creation on Plant Level (LFM2) rather than on Purchase Organization Level (LFM1)?

@pacemaker I found SAP note for it 🙂 it is a gap and not working, also no solution proposed: 335079 - ME59/ME59N: "Automatic purchase order" ind. in vendor master. @SAP will you deliver it? seems like basic functionality.

I have exactly same issue, did you find any answer for this?

Hello, unfortunately not. So we currently keep it on Purchase Org Level if needed for at least one plant. Still a bit disappointing, that the field is available on Plant Level but not driving any functionality.
