    Used for returning inventory.
  • Return Rejects
    Used for returning rejects, which is applicable for quarantine inventory.
Note

For Return Rejects return orders, the following are applicable:

  • To generate Return Rejects purchase orders, link the order type and series that you specified in this session in the Order Type for Return Rejection and Order Series for Return Rejection fields of the Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) session.
  • If the Payable to Supplier check box is selected in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session, the Print Purchase Invoices (tdpur4404m000) activity can be linked. As a result, you can invoice the returned rejected goods.
Ship Lines Complete
If this check box is selected, the total quantity of a Return Rejects purchase order line can be returned only in a single shipment and no backorders can be created for the line. Consequently, after releasing the line to Warehousing, the Shipping Constraint is set to Ship Line Complete for the generated warehouse order.
Note

This check box can be selected only if the Return Order field is set to Return Rejects.

Direct Delivery
If this check box is selected, purchase orders with this order type are deliver directly orders.
Note

Direct delivery orders are purchase orders that are created or generated for sales orders. The ordered goods are directly delivered to the sold-to business partner. Therefore, no inventory transactions take place for a direct delivery order.

Collect Order
If this check box is selected, purchase orders with this order type are collect orders.

A collect order is an order in which inventory is posted on-line while entering order lines. For non-collect orders, financial transactions are created when entering receipts. For collect orders, however, the transactions are created immediately during order entry.

Note

For each activity that is linked to the collect order, the Automatic check box is selected. As a result, manual activities are not allowed for collect orders.

Cost Order
If this check box is selected, purchase orders with this order type are cost orders.
Note

For this order type, only items of type Cost or Service can be selected during order entry.

Subcontracting Order
If this check box is selected, purchase orders with this order type are used for operation subcontracting or item subcontracting.
Note

For item subcontracting it is not mandatory to use this order type. You can also use a normal order type. Purchased items or manufactured items are used on the purchase order. For more information, refer to Item subcontracting - setup.

Customer Furnished Materials
If this check box is selected, purchase orders with this order type include customer furnished material.
Warehousing Order Type
The warehousing order type that is linked to the purchase order type.
Note

If the Return Order field is set to Return Inventory or Return Rejects, you must select a warehousing order type for which the Inventory Transaction Type reads Issue in the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session.

Combine Open Backorders
If this check box is selected, LN tries to consolidate several backorder lines into one open backorder line for a specific purchase order line detail.

The following checks are executed to determine whether an existing backorder line can be updated or a new backorder line must be created:

  • The existing backorder line is not canceled.
  • The existing backorder line is not yet linked to a receipt.
  • The existing backorder line is linked to the same purchase order line detail.
  • The values for the existing backorder line correspond with the values for the new back order line.
Note

If a backorder line's ordered quantity is updated due to combining open backorder lines and a warehousing order is already linked to the line, the warehousing order's ordered quantity is also updated.

Important!

You can only select this check box if the following check boxes are also selected in the Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) session:

You cannot select this check box if the following is applicable:

  • The Collect Order check box is selected.
  • The Consignment Payment check box is selected.
  • The Direct Delivery check box is selected.
  • The Return Order field is set to Return Inventory or Return Rejects.
Consignment Replenishment
If this check box is selected, purchase orders with this order type are used to replenish consignment inventory.
Note

If you transfer an order of the consignment replenishment order type to the Warehousing Orders (whinh2100m000) session, LN creates a warehousing order of type Receipt. You can transfer an order to Warehousing in the Release Purchase Orders to Warehousing (tdpur4246m000) session.
