PO line item should not be mandatory in advance payment

[former_member195434]

Hi,

We have this problem. When PO is made mandatory for advance payment (through field status group), it asks for both PO number and PO item number. Is it possible to make PO item number as not mandatory? There is a possibility that an advance may be given for an entire PO and not for just one item.

How to handle this situation?

Hi Abhi

In EhP4, SAP offered this functionality. For that,

1. You have to activate Business Function LOG_MMFI_P2P

2. You have to create Down Payments from ME2DP

3. This new feature automatically clears the DP when you do MIRO

Without this being active, you have to enter a Dummy PO line item, even though the DP is for the entire PO

Hi Abhinav,

Pls check the functionality of business function   LOG_MMFI_P2P once.

Hi Abhi,

You cannot change the PO item field status. Because the purchase order field contains PO along with item no. If you have multiple PO items and you want to make the advance for entire PO, in that either you have to split the advance based on item or post with out PO reference, just input PO No. in the assignment or text field of the document.
