How can we prevent a PO being generated for a Back-to-back sales order on manual hold in Sage X3 version 12

By | December 30, 2019

In our previous blog, we have discussed regarding the process to create a Back-to-back order by using the sales orders. In this blog we will see How to create a Back-to-back order if sales order is on manual hold.
However, in a Sage X3 when sales order status is on manual hold, then user can’t create a purchase order by using back to back order functionality.
In a Sage X3 version 12 release, there is an enhancement to prevent a purchase order generation when back to back sales order is on manual hold.

To enable this amendment you need to follow the steps below.

Navigate To: Sales >Orders>Sales order

1. As you can see in below screen shot, your sales order is on a manual hold.

If we try to create a purchase order by using Back to back functionality from right panel, then system won’t allow to create a purchase order because the order is on manual hold.

While creating a back to back order you will get the error “Order SONAO0110062 has manual hold” error. Refer the below log error.
