Purchase Order field in FBL1N not displaying data

[atif_farooq]

Dear All:

I have fetched EBELN field from BSEG in FBL1N as a special field. There are thousands of invoices against vendors posted with through PO but whenever i fetch PO field in layout it displays no result. I am unable to understand why is this happening, Can anybody guide me in resolving the issue.

You can input the sort key in vendor (014 - Purchase Order), then it would give you the purchase order number on FBL1N.

If still not achieved, then you may looking into query by joining the finance and procurement tables.

Dear Atif,

in reference to your query please review the SAP note

152335 Field EBELN in line layout variant for cust./vendor

Please note that field BSEG-EBELN is not possible for being shown

with a value in FBL1N and FBL5N as explained in the note above.

Since Release 3.0, several purchase orders can be offset in one invoice.

As a result, different purchasing document numbers (BSEG-EBELN) can be

contained in the different G/L account line items.

As a result, it is no longer possible to enter a unique purchasing

document number in the customer/vendor line item.Field BSEG-EBELN is not

filled in the vendor line item and therefore cannot be displayed in the

line item display for customers/vendors.

I hope this helps.

Dear:

Your reply was really helpful in providing me insight to the problem my end user facing. Could please further suggest any standard way of fetching the required field in FLB1N against invoices only.
