Posted on by 102
Good Day All,
 
When I try to receive the PO I'm facing a error called "Receiving No. Series must have a value in Purchase Header".
 
I already create a Number series for Purchase Receipt.
 
 
And I try to Add this number series in Purchases & Payable set up page.
 
 
There is no Posted purchase receipt filed in this card page.
 
 
Then I try to enable the filed using AL
 
 
Its not work.
 
Please help me to solve the "Receiving No. Series must have a value in Purchase Header" error.
 
Thanks In Advance,
Santhosh.

    As per your screenshot i am assuming that, "Posted Receipt no."  might be  not specify.
     
    Please click over "Show More" as per below screenshot and if "Posted receipt no. not specify the specify as per your number series. 



    Check “Posted Receipt Nos.” field….


     
     
    I hope this will resolved your answers. 

    Thanks,

    Yes, as  mentioned - You need to press the Show More, to see this field in Purchases&Payables setup. You are looking at page extension code, but this field is in the standard page.

    Once You add this No. Serie, You are not out in the clear yet, as this information will be included only in the next Purchase headers You will create (meaning the already created purchase orders will not be updated, and the error will persist). 
    You have to options:
    1) Re-create the purchase orders and delete the old ones.
    2) Use configuration packages for table 38 (purchase Headers), filter on the Purchase Order types, and select the Posting Receipt field. Then using Export to Excel You can add the same No. serie code on the lines where it is missing and is needed, then import it back and apply the package.

    Hello Santosh,
     
    Please click on Show more option on right side of the Purchases & Payables Setup page to visible "Posted Receipt Nos." field.
     
     
    Update Purchase receipt No. series code and try to receive PO again.
     
    If it's work, then mark as verify answer.
     
    Thank you.
