MM - Materials Management
Create PO from approved requisition
Using wrong vendor org data
Goal: stable procurement and stock transparency.
Typical stakeholders: buyer, warehouse lead, inventory controller.
KPIs to watch: purchase cycle time, GR/IR aging, stock accuracy.
A business user runs ME21N during the normal MM process cycle.
Consultant note: Use least privilege, validate master data, and keep reversals documented.
Problem: PO created with wrong vendor purchasing data and output type does not trigger correctly.
Diagnosis: Check vendor purchasing org data, purchasing group, and message/output determination settings.
Resolution: Correct vendor/org assignment, re-determine outputs, and recreate or adjust PO with proper release path.
