3557453 - Attachments in header Purchase Requisitions are not being adopted into purchase orders

Symptom

Using APP "Manage purchase requisition" attachments linked to header Purchase Requisitions are not being adopted into header purchase orders. 

Environment

  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
 

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create a Purchase Requisition with attachments.
  2. Create a Purchase Order using the created Purchase Requisition.
  3. Check for the visibility of the PR attachments at the PO level in the applications "Manage purchase requisition" 

Cause

The issue arises due to the lack of a feature to automatically populate PR attachments at header level to the PO at the header level.

Resolution

We only do support the attachment flow on item level when PR is created via APP 'Manage purchase requisition', when both PR and PO are using DMS attachments. GOS attachments have been and also will never be exchanged between those two objects, as GOS attachments are assigned to a single object alone. Should we decide to implement any PR header attachments of type DMS in the future, then we would also likely support a transfer to the PO as well.
