Attachment for Purchase Order and Purchasing Requisition

Question

Dear All,
At the moment we are on ECC6 EHP 4 and would like to use Document Management in SAP. Now att the PO and PR line item we need to click the Documents icon to see the if the is any document that is being attached to the line item . Is there any way that we can have and indicator at the PR or PO item to denote that there is an attachment attach without the need to click the Documents icon? Maybe an attachment symbol that outlook use whenever there is an attachment in the email.
Would appreciate if you provide any notes or configuration step how to do this.
Thanks

Answer 1

A purchase requisition is an internal document that's created to initiate a procurement transaction. The requisition is created to identify the materials that are needed to be acquired and when they're needed. Once completed by the initiator, it's sent to the appropriate approvers.
Upon approvals of the requsition have been provided, and a vendor is selected, a purchase order is created. The purchase order is an external document whereby an agreement is made to procure the materials at an agreed upon price and delivery schedule
The InfoCubes for each of these is different due to the nature of the documents (internal v. external).
