Information and Functions in the Stock/Requirements List

In the current stock/requirements list you can see all the MRP elements for a material, for example stocks, purchase requisitions, purchase orders, planned orders, and production orders.

You can call up the current stock/requirements list from the Project Information System screen, the Project Planning screen, or the Project Execution screen by choosing Resources ® Stock/requirements list.

In the list you can display the details of MRP elements and, if applicable, change the data. For instance, you can convert planned orders to production orders or purchase requisitions, or purchase requisitions to purchase orders.

Information and Functions in the Project Information System Resources

You can display and change purchase requisitions, purchase orders and reservations for a project in the resources information system.

Behavior of the System after Changes to Quantities and Dates

If the quantities or dates in an activity change, the system reacts as follows:

If a purchase order has already been created, you can start a Structure link Workflow. The purchasing agent is notified by a mail using SAPOffice about the changes to be made and can change the purchase order(s) directly from the mail.

If you use BOM transfer to link a BOM item with a network activity and then change the quantity in the BOM, the system copies the changes to the activity and to the reservations or purchase requisitions for the component the next time you execute the BOM transfer.
