Prior Vendor Filed in ME23N

[former_member459660]

Dear All

I have a requirement to bring in Prior Vendor filed in ME23N (Display mode)

Have maintained the Prior vendor in Purchase Info record and created a PO.  The prior vendor can be seen when i display the PO in ME23 , but i am not able to see this field when displaying the PO using ME23N.

Also the filed is update in EKPO also.

In our custom field selection Key i have already made Prior vendor field to Display mode in  Administrative data, item selection group .But not sure why its not appearing in ME23N.

Can you please let me know your views

Regards

Shyam

The field comes under the retail tab.

Check the field selection for ME21N and also the field selection which is assigned to your PO document type. To view the field in ME23N, you have to set the field as display / optional for the standard field selection ME21N.

Test once by making the field as Required Entry.

How did it got solved?

Leave the standard field selection key ME23 as it is.

Make the field as optional or display for field selection key ME21N. Then check it will appear in ME23N.

(Normally this field is hidden for the field selection key ME21N)

OP says he already had made the changes in ME21N field selection field which he copied and made a custom one, so how did it got solved?

[former_member183424]

Yes. He has made the field as display for this custom field selection key (which was copied from the field selection key ME21N). I think he missed the field selection key ME21N.

You need to make the field as display also for standard field selection key ME21N only then you can able to see the field in ME23N.
