3704649 - Create Purchase Order button inactive when selecting multiple items in Process Purchase Requisitions

Symptom

  • When multiple items are selected in the process purchase requisitions app (F1048A), the "Create Purchase Order" button becomes inactive.
  • This issue occurs even when the items are part of the same purchase requisition.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Access the process purchase requisitions app (F1048A).
  2. Select purchase requisition.
  3. Select multiple items within the purchase requisition.
  4. Observe that the "Create Purchase Order" button becomes inactive.

Cause

The selected Purchase Requisition items have conflicting values for fields that must be unique at the Purchase Order header level.

Resolution

To bundle multiple Purchase Requisition items into a single Purchase Order, specific header-level data must be identical across all selected items. If these fields differ, the system prevents collective processing to ensure data consistency.

  1. Verify that the Supplier (Fixed Vendor or Desired Vendor) is the same for all selected items.

  2. Ensure the Purchasing Organization matches across all items.

  3. Check that the Purchasing Group is identical.

  4. Confirm that the Company Code is the same.

  5. Verify that the Currency is consistent for all selected requisitions.
