Symptom
The Project Purchase Request ID is now determined with a new prefix.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign 2411 and later versions
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to the Project Management work center.
- Proceed to the Projects view.
- Search for the relevant project.
- Click on "Edit".
- Navigate to the Products tab.
- Proceed to the Purchase Requests Sub tab.
- Observe that the Project Purchase Request ID is now determined with a new prefix as "PPR-Number".
Cause
The change in the Project Purchase Request ID pattern is due to the 2411 upgrade. The ID is now determined with a new prefix as "PPR-N", where N is the Sequence Number generated through the Number range object.
E.g: PPR-01
Resolution
This is an expected system behavior, system determines the new prefix initially, once the purchase request is released system assigns the purchase request ID.
