Hi,

We have scenario where lab need some inventory parts (same parts used in Production/ selling) to be used in Lab testing consumables. And the parts need to be ordered through a internal site of another company. We MR and Internal PO/CO process to handle this.

Now we are trying reduce the number of manual steps in the process.

In a MR we use the Supply Code ‘Purchase Order’ and then it creates a PR and we need to convert it to PO.

Is there a automatic process to convert a MR to PR and to PO directly without user intervention?

Or any other good suggestions to reduce all manual steps?

Thanks

On the purchase part, there is a field for Order Proc Type.  Define the steps you want to automate and save as a type in basic data, then add that type to the parts you want to process.

 

 

 

Once you have the type defined and assigned to the parts to be processed, then there is a daily task that needs setup to run at whatever interval you require.

 

You specify site and order proc type along with any other limitations or filters you need.

 

 

There are also two fields on the Planning Data > General of the inventory part that may need to be adjusted.

 

This should help you get started with some of the automation that is possible.

@GayanD ,

The only option in the CORE solution for automating the PR to PO process is ‘Automatic order procesing’ . If you seek beyond that, I’m afraid you are looking for possible modification.
