Require input agreement number for new defined PO document type

Question

Hi guys,
We have defined a new purchase order type.
This order type can only be converted from contract.
How can we process that? I cannot find this setup neither in documen type nor screen layout.

Hi
If you feel that system should not allow you to proceed further wihtout without flagging the return check box at line item level, you have set it in configutaion and the step is as follow..
First you have to creeate a new field selction key under Materiaal Management --> Purchasing >Purchase Order>Define Screen Layout at Document Level
Select NBF field selection and click on Copy icon
Change the Field slection key code and description as you like, say for example ZNBF
Now double click on created field selection by that you will get list of field selection group
Double click on GR/IR Control, system displays list of fields with different options of selection and by default you can find all the fields are have been checked under optional entry
Check on Requried Entry check box of field "Return Indicator"  and save it.
Now the next step is assigning the newly created field selection key (ZNBF) in to docuemnt type
For this, click on Define Document Type, select the newly created field slection key for the newly created PO document type for return and save.
Now when you try to create PO with the newly created document type, system will not allow you to save the document until unless you check the retrun item check box.
I hope this will help..
Best Regards..
