Add BP requisition items to existing PO

We want to add BP requisition items to an existing PO but our interface only shows POs with a status of "New" on the GP backend. Does anyone know how to get more than just the "New" status POs on the list when adding requisition items to existing POs? We are running GP 2010 and do not have Commitments enabled in GP.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Once the original PO is sent to supplier, the status will change to "Released" and when goods are received the status changes to "Received".

I don't believe that Requisition Management supports updating POs with any other status other than "New".

For example, Dynamics does not allow you to manually edit or add to a PO that has a status of "Received", so it would follow that it would not allow Requisition Management to do that either.

And because the status of "Released" also covers situations when a PO has been partially received, one can see how this might cause complications if Requisition Management tried to update a PO line (on a multi-line order) that had already been fully received.

Nothing more valuable to add for Mr. Laos comments, Just to finalize that the PO status changes according to several processes. Independently, the business portal has just to do with the migration of a requisition to Purchase Order (regardless of the PO Status.)

Ms. Leslie has provided a very useful chart in previous posts in the community, which I would like to provide below for further illustration.

Hope this helps,

Thanks so much for your excellent responses! I see the logic of not being able to add items once the requisition is past the New status as a PO, but my user swears that they were able to see Change Orders on the list as well. Does anyone know of any documentation that would clearly state what PO status should be appearing on the list?

Thanks again!

The Requisition Management Admin Guide states that the requisition line items can be transferred to either a (new) or (existing) purchase order in different sections of the reference. Further more, create a new approval hierarchy (for testing purposes) that is linked to a test GP Company, try different approaches by migrating requisitions to Purchase Orders with different status, that would leave you with no worries at all,
