Symptom
The missing filter option for Purchase Order Item ID prevents filtering and viewing of specific items based on their IDs.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Goods and Services Receipts workcenter
- Go to Show by Items View
- Use the Filter "Overdue Purchase Order Items"
- Notice that when selecting the "Purchase Order Item ID" column, the filter option is missing, and only sorting options are available.
Cause
According to the system design, each column in any work center is allocated specific data, such as document ID, description, or other details. This structure allows for the application to use filter options.
However, in this case, there have two associated data sources (purchase order and purchase order item). When merging two data sources, for better visibility, the standard logic for displaying data differs from that of individual columns. This difference results in the technical limitation that prevents the implementation of filter options.
Resolution
The system works as expected. We recommend using the main filter by entering the Purchase Order number. This will enable the system to display the items associated with that specific Purchase Order number.
