Hi,

I am in process of setting up process for converting PRs into POs automatically through
transaction ME59N.

I have created various document types per Plant. That means, one PO document type for
one plant & other document type for another plant.

Now, my problem is how can I control (or select) the document type while running the
program. I want to run the program for MRP generated PRs in various plants with different
PO types.

There is no selection possible for PO document type in transaction ME59N.

Is there any way out for the selection of PO document type in transaction ME59N.

Regards,

Prashant Kolhatkar

Hi Prashant,

This area of configuration might help you out:

Materials management -> consumption based planning -> planning -> procurement
proposals -> define external procurement then the MRP Group button.

Have a look.

Hi all,
I am creating Automatic PO (Tcode ME59N.)
1. Activated Auto PO flag for both Vendor and Material masters
2. Maintained info record and source list, in this source list and fixed
vendor there.
3. Then make a PR with that vendor through assign source of supply
then ME59N
execute
system displayed a message saying 'No suitable purchase requisitions found'

Although PO has been created thru:


1) with reference to PR
2) with reference to RFQ
Can anyone tell me what is wrong in these steps or any other step required?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
did you check in ME57 for this particular requisition that source is assigned automatically?
From your note you mentioned that PO has been created with reference to PR, RFQ? Does
it mean that you already created PO? In that case PR is marked as processed and is not
offered in ME59N for second conversion.
My experience is that this message usually appears when automatic PO settings in VM and

MM are not done please check again that they are set.
You also did not mentioned whether you try to convert PRs coming from MRP or manual
PRs. In case of manual PRs did you check that they were released?
Did you check in ME59N Omit faulty items (will skip faulty items) or did you enter other
selection criteria beside PR numbers?
