Workflow is not triggering when PO is getting changed

[#1]

Our requirement:

1) We need to create Purchase order by using transaction ZMDAYTRANS with different Buyer code.

2) After creation of P.O., workflow would trigger and workitem should go to Buyeru2019s Inbox for approval. Once P.O. is approved by Buyer, workitem should go for next approval as per release strategy and after final approval it would be release.

3) As per our requirement, if net price of any line item is incorrect then vendor would able to change it with correct price.

4) Whenever vendor will change the price of any line item, changed data should come in SAP through EDI and then again workflow should trigger and workitem should go to buyeru2019s Inbox for approval.

Issue:

1) Whenever we are creating two different P.O. with different buyer code through transaction ZMDAYTRANS, workflow is triggering and workitem is going to respective Buyer inbox correctly for approval.

But after final release of P.O., For one Buyer code when vendor is changing the price with correct price of any line item, workflow is triggering and workitem is going to buyeru2019s inbox for approval.

For other Buyer code when vendor is changing the price with correct price of any line item, workflow is not triggering but vendor is getting the approval mail and status of P.O. is set to release with automatic approval which should not happen.

Hi ANUGRAH PRAKASH,

If it happens for only one buyer code, i hope there may some configure issue. If it happens for all the buyer, then it may be the reason in the Event linkage.

Hi ANUGRAH PRAKASH,

1. After i read you posting, hope that you are creating the PO using a ztcode, Please check the Release Statergy in SPRO.

2. And check that have you given any condition in you module pool program for the specific buyer code.

But, From my knowledge, once the PO is released the PO should be in display mode and further changes should not be attempted.

Even if this going to be you requirement, then follow the first two stes and check the same.

Thanks and Regards

Hi ANUGRAH PRAKASH

Before i answer your query, let me understand you query properly.

Your Query

But after final release of P.O., For one Buyer code when vendor is changing the price with correct price of any line item, workflow is triggering and workitem is going to buyeru2019s inbox for approval.

Is this Happening after the PO is released or before Release.

For other Buyer code when vendor is changing the price with correct price of any line item, workflow is not triggering but vendor is getting the approval mail and status of P.O. is set to release with automatic approval which should not happen.

Is this Happening for a specified buyer Code or for all buyer code. Have you checked the same with some other buyer code.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Balaji,

After all approval PO is getting released and finaly it go to vendor , then vendor is changing the price of line item then again it should go for approval to buyer.

This is happening with Only one Buyer code.

I hope now you are cleare with requirement.

Thanks
