We have had users enter No Part Purchase Order lines and pre-posting is mandatory in this case. However, after the users enters the account number, it allows them to just click OK without filling in the other code part demands. The account number they are using does have mandatory code part demands. Should it validate that everything is filled in correctly before allowing you to close out of the pre-posting window?
Question
Why does pre-posting on a no part PO line or Material Req not follow the code part demands?
Hi,
Very sorry but it does not work that way. Other functions such as code string completion can optionally fill the mandatory code parts due to code part demands being set up. For that reason, we can’t force a pre-posting due to code part demands on things like purchase orders.
Those transactions missing a code part will flow to an error status where they can be fixed by additional pre-posting.
In my opinion, it’s best if we can try to minimize pre-posting as much as possible and incorporate rules to provide the correct string. Obviously, that’s not entirely possible, but I try. Sure we don’t have as many posting options as ideal, and pre-posting can be the only solution.
Best regards,
Thomas
