Reference Code for Purchase Requisition 1

[Jakov]

Hello, all!

Could somebody explain me how to create Reference Code for Purchase Requisition?

In some Ellipse manuals & help I've found that Purchase Requisition is standard Mincom defined entity.
But I don't know how to create ref code for PR...with ability to create ref code during req creation or maintaining...

use MSO070 to create the reference code definitions for against Entity Type "PUR" which is pre-defined by Mincom for Purchase Requisitions.
For more info you can check folllowing FAQ (MIMS forum):

Hello, Calator
I've found that,
Unfortunately, we can use this Mincom entity (PUR) just for RC creation against PO and RO (Recommended Orders)and not for Requisitions.

So, it looks like in this case (for DPR) we have to create user-defined RC, what is not inconveniently for us...

We run version 6.1 and yes, ref codes ARE available for purchase requisitions to be cretaed and reviewed.
As you expected Ellipse is a bit inconsistent in the handling of reference codes:
In order to Create, it appears available only via the Long Form facility MSO230 and not with the short form MSO14P.
I could not find it on MSO14P/MSO14B but you may wish to inquire with Mincom is that was needed.

With MSO230 is available on screen MSM23EA maintain PR Item via Action Code 9 at the bottom of the screen.

To Review it is available from MSO231 via button Search Ref.Code in the toolbar at the top of the screen - this is the alternate search, as well as Action Code 9 on the review PR Item screen MSM23GB.

Note that according to narrative in MSO073.CBL, 'PUR' is available for use with: purchase requisitions(MSO23G), purchase orders(MSO221), recommended orders(MSO241), stock code/supplier information (MSO211) and FPA (MSO25C)

Also note that display of Ref Code action code & buttons may be affected by program security levels, a match level < 2 will hide the option.
