Defining Purchase Order Types in SAP ECC for Intercompany Purchasing in Integration Hub

Defining Purchase Order Types in SAP ECC for Intercompany Purchasing in Integration Hub

Order types indicate how a customer transmits an order. When processing a sales document, SAP Integration Framework 2.0 enters the purchase order type into the item level of the sales order. 

You use the purchase order type to distinguish between the sales from local stock and sales from central stock scenario variants. 

SAP Integration Framework 2.0 uses the INT and EXT purchase order types as the default during transmission from SAP Business One to SAP ECC. 

SAP Integration Framework 2.0 copies the value to the reference outbound delivery. It also comes with the shipping notification message. 

Based on the EXT or INT value, the scenario distinguishes whether to create a draft goods receipt for the Sales from Local Stock scenario variant or a goods receipt for the Sales from Central Stock scenario variant. 

Define the possible order types.
