If you have received the order confirmation from your vendor, you enter the confirmation
number on the item screen. The system checks as a part of monitoring whether or not an
entry exists in the order confirmation field. If there is no entry, you can generate an order
acknowledgment expediter.
Using the fast change, you can enter the same confirmation number for all items of a
purchase order. The Fast Change icon is located in the purchase order below the item
overview.
Generating an independent document requires that you have used a confirmation category
that allows an inbound delivery. The data for the inbound delivery is transferred to the
corresponding confirmation fields in the purchasing document. You can then enter the goods
receipt with reference to a purchasing document or inbound delivery. As part of monitoring,
the system checks whether you have confirmed the entire ordered quantity. If you have not
yet confirmed or only partially confirmed the quantity, you can generate an order
acknowledgment expediter.
