Symptom
When the Purchase Order includes Limit Items, the custom fields are not available in the corresponding PurchaseOrderLimitItemNode of the form template. As a result, the custom field cannot be added or displayed in the Purchase Order form output for limit items.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
This is the standard system behavior.
Currently, no extensibility is supported for Purchase Order Limit Items in output forms or data sources.
-
The PurchaseOrderLimitItemNode structure is not extensible through Custom Fields and Logic.
-
Only standard Purchase Order Item Nodes support the addition and mapping of custom fields to the form templates.
-
There is no standard form template or extensible data model available for Limit Items, hence custom fields cannot be displayed in this section of the Purchase Order form.
