Manage purchase documents

When a vendor is selected on a purchase document, the system inherits the Service Provisioning Type field value set up for the vendor to the purchase document. Further, you can change the Service Provisioning Type field value on the General FastTab of the purchase document as required.

On the Lines FastTab, the system ensure only relevant items can be added to the purchase document. For example, if the Service Provisioning Type field value is set to Third-Party on a purchase order, the system allows purchasing only third-party items.

When the Service Provisioning Type field value is set to Third-Party, the system restricts any cost additions. Upon posting, the system does not create any value entries.

On the header, select the Third Party No. field value to specify the third-party customer who owns the goods in the relevant purchase order.

• The system displays a notification when updating the Third Party No. field value on the header after lines exist. The third party number on the line will never be overwritten when changing it on the header.
• The Third Party No. field value can automatically used during lot assignment to populate the lot ownership attribute, without overwriting existing values. This has to be setup as a lot attribute source mapping using the fucntionality of extension advanced attributes.

When creating purchase lines , the system first checks if the item has a fixed value for lot attribute out lot ownership setup in the item template. If that is the case, this is applied as third party number. If not, the system inherits the value from the purchase header.

On the line it is possible to change the third party no. In case it should be different from the header

The system automatically inherits the Service Provisioning Type field value to associated warehouse, inventory put-away or pick, and posted purchase documents.

The system displays an error when posting a receipt from a purchase order, warehouse, and inventory put-away or pick document if the buy-from vendor in the selected lot attribute value does not match the vendor specified in the document header.

Freight trade plan for purchase

• The system creates a service billing entry instead of a if a trade accrual interim entry if the Trade Plan Type field value is set to Freight use general ledger accounts and the order while the item with the Service Provisioning Type field value is set to Third-Party.
• If the Service Provisioning Type field value is set to Own, a trade accrual interim record is created following normal trade management business rules. If the Service Provisioning Type field value is set to Third-Party, no trade accrual interim record is created but a service billing entry is created according the business rules from service provisioning.
