Good day all,
Reaching out to find out if there are any smart people who can assist with a possible solution / parameter regarding the following scenario. The process is as follows:
- PR (purchase request) is created with a QTY of 10 units and submitted for approval via workflow.
- PR is fully approved and PO (purchase order) for 10 units is generated, closing the PR.
- The PO line is modified, reducing the QTY of 10 to 5 units on the PO and saved.
- Because the PO QTY is 5 units and is less than the PR QTY of 10, the PR re-opens.
- The re-opened PR allows users to generate another order for the remaining QTY of 5 units on a different order NR.
- The requirement is thus that the PR does not allow users to re-order despite the QTY being less on the order.
I would like to know if there is a standard solution to prevent PRs from reopening to be ordered again, either a parameter or an entry transaction setup somewhere to prevent users from generating PO's again. Perhaps its as simple as a user security setting or user parameter. I'm hoping someone can provide some insights on how we can manage this.
