Purchase requisition types in SAP Cloud 1908

[former_member627931]

hi everyone,

In the workflow of purchase requisitions, we have different workflows for different types of purchase requisitions. But there are not much PR types available in system... i tried to manage workflows by material groups instead of PR types, but material groups are not available in PR workflows, neither...

Is it possible to create custom purchase requisition types? if not, what are the solutions for different PR workflows?

Hi Shasha,

In the app Manage Workflow for Purchase Requisitions, for the Item Level Release of PR you can configure workflows based on Material Groups as Pre-Conditions.

Best Regards,

Hi Shasha:

My answers as below,

New PR Type – Yes new PR type cannot be created in S4HC. But can you explore the BADI available for PR workflow, this will resolve your issue. Besides that if you can explain your business requirement, then we may find some better workaround for your question.

The requirement is like this :

there are purchase requisitions for different items, like asset purchase requisitions, cost purchase requisitions (for example, office supplies, electricity), moulds purchase requisitions, samples purchase requisitions.

For cost PR, if the total net amount of the PR is less than 150,000 CNY, the workflow is 3 levels, A, B, C; if the total net amount of the PR is more than 150,000 CNY, the workflow is 5 levels, A, B, C, D, E .

For asset PR, no matter how much is the total amount, the workflow is 3 levels, A, B, C.

For moulds PR, no matter how much is the total amount, the workflow is 2 levels, B and F.

For samples PR, no matter how much is the total amount, the workflow is 3 levels, G, B, F.

if new PR types can't be created... how to do this in SAP cloud?

Hi Sasha:

If you use Workflow " Release of Purchase requisition on Item level" then you can achieve the first 2 scenarios of Cost centre and asset with the condition " account assignment category of PR item". For rest of the 2 scenarios moulds and samples you can use material group as a condition. This can solve your problem without using the BADI.

If you are using over all purchase requisition release, then only option is to explore the BADI with your implementation consultant.

Please revert back for any clarification.

Hi Shasha,

If you have configuration access, can you look into Manage Your Solution> Configure your solution> configuration ‎#102909. I believe you can create PO doc types and link new PR types as well. This might be able to solve your issue.

Thanks, and please let us know if this works.

I checked it out, the configuration you mentioned is about linking PO types with existing PR types, i can't add new PR types here. if i try to enter a new PR type that doesn't exist in system, there will be an error popping up "Enter valid document type".

The control to trigger a purchase requisition and purchase order is at schedule line and item category level (CB1/CB2) respectively. Within S/4HANA cloud currently there is no SSCUI available to control these features. In short it is not possible to create a Purchase Order automatically without processing the purchase requisition.

I hope this answered your question! If it did, please mark it as the 'Best Answer' so I can continue learning and answering questions in the community.
