If any changes are made to the dates or quantities in the operation or in the component, the system automatically adjusts the data in the purchase requisition.
An indicator on the
external processing
screen of the operation and the
Purchasing
screen of the component informs you of whether a purchase order has already been created via the purchase requisition.
Note
If a purchase requisition has already been converted to a purchase order, the indicator
Purchase order exists
is set on the tab page
External processing
in the order. Changes to the order are
not
copied to the purchase order.
