Purchase order triggering Sales order

Question

I have a business scenario where the sales process happens between two internal companies.  Company 'A' (ordering company) creates PO on Company 'B' (Supplying company).  Company B inturn creates the Sales order, delivery, ships and bills to Company B.  Here we require the automatic trigger of Sales order in Company B whenever a PO is saved in Company 'A'.  Kindly suggest whether we can handles this requirements through any standard configuration process (similar to the one in Third Party process where the Sales order upon saving triggers Purchase Requisition in MM)

Hi Rahul,
I am doing exactly similar interface at the moment. Where we can created SO wrt to PO using ALE IDOC.
We have two plants where these plants relates each other as customer and vendor.
Customer A orders via PO triggers NEU output and process code ME10, idoc "orders05" and messge "orders".
Against this incoming idoc gets generated which creates SO.
Process code ORDE, idoc type ORDERS05 and message "orders".
You may also need to define data in VOE2 transaction for automatic determination of customer and vendor while generating idocs.
Even in customer and vendor master u need to maintain the fields where it says customer no at vendor side and vice versa.
Come back if this won"t suffice.
Best  regards,
