Adopt Contract Line Items in PR

Hi SCN experts,

I am looking to allow an end-user who is creating a Purchase Requisition via ME51N to adopt line items from a Purchasing Contract via the Document Overview screen, clicking and dragging the selected items into the Shopping Cart.

This has been raised previously in SCN 3467951, and the response provided was that this is not standard behaviour. The answer provided was to get the contract details using BAPI_CONTRACT_GETDETAIL, store in an internal table, read the records and then create PR with BAPI_REQUEST_CREATE.

Has anyone successfully managed to achieve this outcome either using the proposed solution from SCN 3467951 or via a different method?

Thanks kindly,

Bruce Ralston
