How can I disable automatic communication of purchase order changes to suppliers?

You can disable the Communicate purchase order changes setting on the Configure Procurement Business Function to prevent the communication of change orders to suppliers.

When you disable the setting, change orders will be created with the Communication Method set to None and Acknowledgment Required set to None. However, you can manually update these values on individual change orders to enable supplier communication if needed.

Note: The Communicate purchase order changes setting on the Configure Procurement Business Function is enabled by default. To prevent the communication of change orders to suppliers, you must disable the setting.
