2822661 - Manage Purchase Orders Advanced indicator

Symptom

Fiori APP 'Manage Purchase Orders' is used to process Purchase Order.

When processing Purchase Orders in the APP, sometimes the system generates a separate browser session. The reasons for this are explained in KBA 2372209. In some cases it may not be clear to the user why a Purchase Order has been determined as 'Advanced'. For example, two Purchase orders with identical master data in all respects have been created, but in the APP one Purchase Order is marked as 'Advanced' and the other not.   

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud All Versions 

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In the Fiori launchpad, open up the APP 'Manage Purchase Orders' and Press 'GO'.
  2. The 2 example Purchase Orders are displayed in the worklist as follows:

"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."

Cause

The APP does not cover all the features available in the advanced webgui tile. The system executes a feature check on the header, item, schedule line and account assignment levels when the APP worklist is created. If any check on any level fails, the Purchase Order is marked as 'Advanced'. 

Resolution

  • Standard system behaviour, process the affected Purchase Orders in the advanced webgui tile.

    Example case.

  • The Information Icon 'marked in Yellow' indicates an Advanced Purchase Order. 
  • Click the Icon in the worklist for further Information.

  • The Information log shows in this example that the Purchase Order has Item attachments which are currently an unsupported feature in the APP. Item attachments could originate from reference documents like contracts or Purchase Requisitions for example.
