2957535 - Cannot create PO from PR directly after assign supplier in application 'assign and process purchase requisition'

Symptom

Error 'Requisition xxx/xx not convertible due to status (03(In Release))' can be found in application 'assign and process purchase requisition' after a supplier is assigned.

Environment

  • Sourcing and Procurement
  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud 2008

Reproducing the Issue

  1. create a PR
  2. assign a supplier in application 'assign and process purchase requisition' 

Cause

An enhancement is added in application 'assign and process purchase requisition', before the PR can be converted to a PO the release status will be checked. If Purchasing info record and Purchasing Org is checked in SSCUI 102888, workflow for PR will be retriggerred after assigning a supplier because Purchasing Org and Purchasing info record will also be assigned together with supplier.

Resolution

Restart the application to check the latest status of PR before converting PR to PO.

If Purchasing info record and Purchasing Org is not relevant in business workflow, then uncheck these 2 fields in SSCUI 102888 to avoid workflow to be retrigger when assigning supplier.

The  SSCUI 102888 configuration is not considered for restart of Purchase Requisition created from  MRP .

You can implement the BAdI Define Conditions to Restart Flexible Workflow  in the Business Context

Procurement: Purchase Requisition Item to avoid restart for  purchase requisitions created from MRP run.

In the implementation write a check on the creation indicator 'B'.

You can check the below code snippet.
