Purchase agreement is not enforcing a hard stop on creating purchase order for exceeding the Product category value commitment

I have a scenario for Purchase agreement:

1. Create a purchase agreement for Product category value commitment.

2. Select a procurement category, enter $50,000 in net amount. Max is enforced is Yes.

3. Maximum release amount entered is $50,000. The agreement status is effective.

4. PO is created linking the purchase agreement.

5. PO line is entered with $60,000.

The system will displaying a warning that the PO is exceeding the agreement value. However, this doesn't stop me from continuing to process PO (confirming etc). Though overriding this warning is removing the link between PO and agreement, it doesn't stop the user.

My question is that is there a way to enforce a hard stop on preventing the system from creating a PO or confirming.

Thanks

Harsha

Max is enforced doesnt work for procurement category, It will just provide a message but wont stop from processing further.

Hi Harsha,

Please can you check if the highlighted 'max is enforced' flag on purchase agreement matches your requirement?

if 'Max is enforced' enabled then the total quantity or amount for all order lines can't exceed the quantity or amount that is specified on the related commitment.

Hi Harsha,

You will need to do some customization to cancel the purchase order.
