Purchase Order Confirmation in MD04

[Former Member]

Hello Everyone,

Our system is set to receive EDI PO Confirmations - Conf Control key 0001, with Confirmation Categories AB and LA.

When PO Acknowledgement is posted it shows the correct Conf. Cat. , "AB" on the PO Lines , but in MD04 the MRP field for that Order displays "ShipNt" - exactly the same as it would be for the ASN.

How to assign different MRP element text to indicate Confirmation Category AB/Order Confirmation?

I tried the "Check Texts for the MRP element", but it allows making changes just for the existing MRP elements.

Is there any way to add a new MRP element for PO Confirmation, or maybe link one of the existing elements to Conf Cat. u201CABu201D?

I would greatly appreciate any help.

Regards,

Aneta

Hi Aneta,

I have exactly the same problem as you.

I do not understand how MRP is considering the AB type Confirmation Category as the same MRP Element as the LA type Confirmation Category.

In addition, the actual MRP element shown in MRP Tables MDTB is LA (even though the confirmation Category is AB)

Have you had any other feedback on this problem ?

Many of our reports are reading this as an ASN when in fact it is only an Order Acknowledgement.

Thanks,

Johanne
