Skip the auto creation of purchase order step when creating direct delivery sales lines

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 8

Hello,

I have a requirement where I need to create sales orders with sales lines which are potentially have a direct delivery. However, the purchase order linked to the sales line (which is usually created automatically when creating the sales line must not be created automatically. I initialized the SalesLine properly and called the method createLine(). However, the purchase order is being created automatically. Is it possible to skip the purchase order creation step?

    Hi Jason,

    When you create a sales order, there is a manual step to create the direct delivery. Only then, a related PO with lines is being created. SO, the  PO lines are not directly automatically created. I'm not sure if you are currently referring to a customization or ISV features.

    Hello,

    I have noticed that the purchase order is automatically created when a sales line is added on the sales order. I was wondering if this could be skipped. Actually, the requirement is that a customisation needs to be done for the client as they are migrating all open sales orders to another legal entity. However, they do not wish for the purchase orders to be automatically created. They need this development as they want all delivery dates and other dates similar to the previous legal entities. We will do a further development to migrate the purchase orders related to the SO and link them manually. This is why the automatic purchase order creation needs to be skipped.

    Hi Jason,

    Are you really referring to direct delivery or intercompany orders? I have not seen direct delivery SOs being automatically creating POs directly.
