Change the Org Structure

[Former Member]

Hello,

There is a need to reorganize the SRM “Org Structure”:

Currently they are using several Purchasing Organizations (1 per Country/Company Code),

The customer would like to move to a structure with 1 Global Purchasing Organization under which they would like to add different Purchasing Groups(1 per country).

Also technically, how to move from the “Old purchasing organizations” to the new Global Purchasing Org?:

What about the document SCs, POs that are linked to the Old Purchasing Orgs.

What to do with the Old Purchasing Org: certainly not to delete because of the link with purchasing document,  ….?

Could you advise with right strategy to make this change.

Kind regards,

Lina

Hi Lina,

Technically it is not possible to change the Old Purchasing organization to the new one in all the transactional data.

You can create a new central purchasing org above all the Purchasing group  and the make Validity end date for the the Old Purchasing org instead of deleting.
