Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Resolution

To prevent the system from automatically creating a purchase requisition while the sales document is in approval, indicate this for one or more approval request reasons using configuration activity "Define Reasons for Approval Requests (ID: 102751)".

Once the sales document is approved, the purchase requisition is created.

Note:
The automatic creation of the purchase requisition can only be deferred when a sales order is created in a standard process.
In a scenario where the purchase requisition is created during a scheduled or manual material requirements planning (MRP) run, the creation of the purchase requisition is not deferred, even though the sales document is in approval.
