Settings

The fields described in this document are related to the additional settings for procurement which are accessed by selecting options from the 'PO Delivery Method Selection. Open' (PPS033) program.

PO delivery method selection (PPS033)

(PPS033) is used to control which delivery method should be applied on a purchase order. The selection of the delivery method is performed using control fields. The control fields for (PPS033) are defined in 'Generic Object Control Table. Open' (CMS017).

If (PPS033) is used, a new hierarchy for setting the delivery method is defined. This affects all planned purchase orders; and purchase orders and inquiries that are generated, created, updated, or copied. The hierarchy is defined as the delivery method in these programs:
  • 'PO Delivery Method Selection. Open' (PPS033)
  • 'Purchase Agreement. Open' (PPS100)
  • 'Supplier. Define Purchase & Financial' (CRS624).
    Note: (PPS033) does not affect which delivery method is used for delivery schedules.
