Detailed Problem Description

(Include Screen Shots if required )

Need look into the possibilities to have the following enhancements to our purchase requisition process and have an estimate on effort:

1. Have the Purchase Requestor field and the Desired Vendor field warnings in the purchase requisition creation/change transaction (ME51N, ME52N)
2. When a Purchase Requisition is converted to a PO, email the PR creator that the PR was converted to a PO (with detailed information like PR and PO number).
3. For large POs there will be a requirement for a Business Case. Is there a way to send an attachment (excel/PDF) with the email notification of the business case that was written by the person requesting the PR.
4. If a certain dollar amount is reached that the email notification also goes to the CFO.
