Regarding OPEN PO ( PO's with out GR )

Question

hi experts,
i need to fetch open PO's that is PO's with out Goods receipts from table EKBE.
i found from my functional analyst that if EKBE-BELNR is empty then this is
Open PO but when i checked table entries in ekbe, i found that for PO with BELNR empty it wont create any entries in EKBE.
for example: if PO 100 has Belnr say 1000 this PO is displayed in EKBE entries
        on the other hand if PO 200 has BELNR empty or entry not made then this PO not displayed in EKBE entries that is PO 200 is not there in EKBE.
so can any one please tell me how do i select open PO's or is there any alternative.
    i hope u understood, thanks and waiting for your reply

Hi,
You can select the Open PO's from MKPF and MSEG tables.
All the GOODS RECEIPTS will be stored in MSEG table.
Against each PO item there will be GR's in MSEG table.
Take related Movement types and fetch the GR's received against each PO item by passing EBELn and EBELP fields to MSEG.
Again OPEN PO means, If the PO qty is 20 and the GR qty is 15 , then again it's a Open PO. So you have to take the PO qty for each item and take the all GR's for a single PO item (you have to LOOP MSEG, as it contains multiple records for a single EBELN and EBELP) and sum up the GR qty's .
Again here you have to substract the Returns and GI's depending on the movement types.
So find the total effective GR qty and compare with PO qty if both are same that PO is closed. If PO qty is more than GR qty it is still OPEN.
Hope this is clear.
