Automatic distribution of serial numbers took place - Check PO
Help Document

Diagnosis

You are carrying out an unplanned material exchange (UME) for the subcontract purchase order item with a quantity greater than 1. You have used serialized materials and the serial numbers have been maintained for the original purchase order item.

You have exchanged the original material with two or more interchangeable materials during UME and split the quantity in the UME dialog box.

When creating the new subitems in the purchase order, the system is trying to distribute the assigned serial numbers proportionally between all new subitems. The automatic distribution is a proposal from the system.

System Response

The system updates the purchase order and creates new subitems. The system carries out automatic distribution of the serial numbers. In the application log of the Subcontracting Monitor, the system issues a warning message regarding the automatic distribution of the serial numbers for each relevant subitem.

Procedure

Check in the purchase order whether the automatic distribution of the serial numbers is correct and adjust if required.

The automatic distribution of serial numbers happens only for a recursive repair for the items you select in the UME dialog box, where you have selected the Material Change check box.
