Summary :
The SAP Note discusses limitations of BAPI_PO_CREATE in comparison to transaction ME21 for purchase order creation. Key deficits include an inability to set a valuation type, create header texts, or fully integrate with subcontracting components unless they already exist. Other missing capabilities cover the incorporation of item confirmation control keys, reference fields, and even handling of specific elements like address data. The note also delineates limitations, addressed in new versions or with updated patches, about the proper alternatives and solutions provided by BAPI_PO_CREATE1 and BAPI_PO_CHANGE for enhancing purchase order processing capabilities. These adjustments are crucial for ensuring comprehensive functionality through the BAPIs.
