How to receive an Alert when a Purchase Order is added?

Hi all,
I am wondering how to set an alert so that it will trigger when a P.O. is added. Really all that needs to be displayed to the alert recipient is the DocNum, CardName, and DocTotal of the P.O. I know how to generate a list of P.O.'s entered for the day, week, etc., but really all I want to happen is as follows:
1. A user adds a Purchase Order.
2. An alert is displayed to whoever I select that shows that user the DocNum, CardName, and DocTotal for that specific P.O.; it only needs to be displayed once, and it only needs to show the most recent P.O.
Any help on how I can acheive this? I think the answer is likely very simple.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jim,
What would be the reason you need this as an Alert.
One of the things you should try is to minimise number of alerts in the system. Mainly because Alerts can substantially slow the system and also the system takes longer to login as the Alerts are checked when the user logs in.
This I am saying because of my practical experience implementing B1 for many years now. I could give you an answer to your question which provides very minimal value without any reasoning to it.
As far as possible try to use out of the box options and one good option for this is to use the Open Items Report and check for Open PO's

How to Create inspection that assign to Purchase Order / Material Document

Dear QM Master,
I am using QA01 to create inspection lot but can any master tell me , How to Create inspection that assign to Purchase Order / Material Document ?
Appreciate.
Thank you.

Hello,
When you create an inspection lot manually, you cannot reference an original document (for example, a goods receipt document, an order, or a delivery note).
In QA01 you can create inspection lot manually for all inspection lot origins except the following:
10 - Delivery to customer with sales order
11 - Delivery to customer without sales order
12 - General delivery
13 - Repetitive manufacturing
14 - Plant maintenance

Receive push notification when a new item is added to a shared list in Reminders.app?

I want to use the Reminders app on my iPhone to share a list with my wife. The sharing is set up easily, but I want to receive an alert when she adds something to the list. Does anyone know if this is possible. We weren't able to figure it out and have since switched to AnyList which does offer this feature on shared lists. But I'd rather use Reminders because of it's integration with Mac OS.

Hi,
Why workflow? If you just need to send email then you can use "Alert Me" feature. If you want to approve the item via workflow then just create OOTB workflow from list settings page.
Finally if you need designer workflow then follow below link:

Hope it could help

I got a problem when create purchase order automatically once the Sales Order created, the field ERNAE of the Purchase Order creatd is WF-BATCH, but we want this field to be the user log in the system, like John. Smith
it seems this is a configuration issue, but i am not familar with workflow, do you experts have any solutions?
thank you in advance.
Hongtao

thank you for you reply my friend.
yes, i mean the PO creator.
I just create a SO in VA01, then change the Schedule line category from CN to CP, then SAVE, then Confirm the Delivery Proposal. after all this, the PO will be created automatically by Workflow. Because when I display the PO via ME23N, it displays [Standard PO XXXXX created by Workflow-System] on the top of the screen.
But i do not know which workflow is trigered to create the PO. and i tried SWEL like you said, there is no record listed.

Oracle purchasing now integrates with Advanced Pricing the same way Order Management does.
You can set qualifiers / modifiers. You can set up volume discounts etc too.

Error when posting Purchase Orders

Hello,
Client gets the followin error for a particular item when doing purchase order : -
No matching records found 'withholding tax' (OWHT)
The error does not appear when purchase order is done from the server directly, but appears on SAP clients.
What could be causing this error ?

hello Martin,
is this error occur in only one particular BP or it occurs in all BP?
if this error only occurs in one BP
1. goto the BP master data - Accounting Tab - Tax sub-tab
2. Check the tick box "Subject to withholding tax"
3. WT Code allowed - clikc the button in the right side "This will open WT Code allowed window" set default one of the existing WT code available.
4. Update BP Master Data.
hope this helps...

Error when Approving Purchase order

Dear all,
we are using oracle applications version 12.0.4, I am facing an issue when a Purchase order is approved , the approver is getting a notification
" Unable to reserve funds" and purchase order is going to pre-approved status. I tried to check funds from purchase order form but Its showing me a message
"The header currently does not have distributions eligible for this action"
Edited by: user13295191 on 02-Nov-2011 05:12

A quick hack would be to try this functionality from the old form (instead of the OA page) just to know the error.
Thanks,
Vinod

IBots - How to send an alert when NO records are returned

It seems straightforward enough to send an alert when a query produces results, but I want to do the opposite. For instance, I only want to get an email at 7am when an object has no data in it for the current day. I do not want to know every day that records are returned.
how would i set up such an iBot such that it fires every day, and only emails me when no records are returned form the query?

1) Create a small report called "No Records" and create an unscheduled iBot for this report.
2) You have your iBot created for the original report, yes? Okay. If you don't want any notification when records are produced for this iBot, then in the Destinations tab, make sure all the boxes are unchecked for "Specific Devices."
3) Now in the Advanced tab, click on the "Add Action" button under the "Execute these actions when no records are returned by the conditional request" section.
4) Click on "iBot."
5) Navigate to the "No Records" ibot created in step one.
Now, when the original ibot fires and there are records, nothing will be sent because you unchecked all ways to get notification. But when there are no records, this event will fire the chained ibot you linked to in the Advanced tab. This iBot will have as an attachment, your report that says "No Records."
