Hello,
This is the expected behavior, the procurement of MTS goods is triggered by
orderpoints (also known as "minimum stock rules"), and by design a minimum
stock rule cannot fire again until the previous item has been properly
validated (or cancelled).
If the min. stock rule was allowed to fire repeatedly it would do so every time
the scheduler runs until the product comes back in stock, creating many
duplicate RfQs.
Minimum stock rules are *not* meant to be used for MTO-like behavior, but
should be carefully configured to match the raw material requirements of the
company, fine-tuned to provide a sufficient stock on hand quantity at all
times. They should include a security extra quantity so that the stock cannot
be depleted before the purchase manager is able to confirm the RfQ created by
the min. stock rule.
Running the scheduler manually after creating a MO (as you describe) is
very much a MTO-like behavior. If you are working with MTS you should
start by configuring proper min. stock rules (i.e. don't simply tick the
"automatic order point" option of the scheduler), and make sure the
minimum and maximum quantities are properly sized for your needs,
including a sufficient extra quantity to cover the time it takes for the
RfQ to be validated and delivered by the supplier when the min. stock
rule fires.
I hope this helps...
PS: this is by no means a "Security Vulnerability", please do not tick that
option when reporting a normal bug (you'll likely delay the answer, as only the
security team can see those bugs)
