Symptom
The 'Display Purchase Requisitions' App does not display all PRs when searched using the sales order.
or
There are purchase requisitions with and without account assignment. Use transactions where in the selection screen specific account assignment objects like a certain cost center, order, WBS element etc can be excluded. (for example in transactions ME5A). In this case the system will not display among the results the requisitions that contain the excluded account assignment object, this is expected. However, notice that also non-account assigned purchase requisitions are filtered out, i.e. they are not shown in the results. Expect that non-account assigned requisitions are also displayed in this case.
Environment
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the 'Monitor Stock / Requirements List' App and enter the material and plant used in the sales order.
- Click on the Planned order appearing below or above to the customer order that has same sales order id.
- Click on the "Show tree" button appearing on the left corner top of the screen.
- Click on 'expand' to see the entire list of PRs under the "receipt element" column.
- Open the 'Display Purchase Requisitions' App and enter the sales order.
- A single PR or no PRs or few PR only appears, not the entire list of PRs are appearing.
Cause
Intended system design. When certain account assignment objects are filtered out / excluded from the selection, it is assumed that the user is interested in account assigned requisitions only. Hence, the system accesses the EBKN table (account assignment of purchase requisition items) for the search and thus only account assigned requisitions can be returned. This design serves performance purposes to allow a quick selection.
Resolution
The design is not subject to change due to the fact that it could also cause performance issues and affect other programs.
