If I see a transaction on screen V23, how do I determine what type of purchase order it is?
Example: Blanket Purchase Order, Regular Purchase Order, Limited Purchase Order

A limited purchase order can be identified easily because it starts with an A2#, and this number will be displayed in the first reference field on screen V23.
 
The example shows a limited purchase order charge on L.P.O. # A239912.

For more details about other purchase orders, scroll down below this screen image.

A non limited purchase order has to be identified by doing the steps below:

Go to screen 220 -  Purchase Order Header Maintenance

Type in the purchase order number that appears on screen V23 in the p.o. field (1st reference field) - (don't forget the prefix EX:P); and hit enter.

We will use purchase order number P586729 as our example (this appears on the screen image of V23 above).

Is it an Blanket Order?  a Regular PO?

On screen 220:  Look at the --- p.o. type--- field to determine what it is.

You can look at the right side of the p.o. type field for a brief identification.

Or for more details, put your cursor on the P.O. Type field information, and hit the F2 (help key) to identify what type of purchase order it is - Example: Blanket Order, Confirming/Quoted Order, etc.

You can scroll forward through the help section by hitting enter.

This lists all of the abbreviations for the purchase order types.

***If you use the F2 (help key) press the F4 to exit help (menu at bottom left of screen).

Then, hit the Home key to get back to the screen field.***
