• Key Concepts: 
  PO Output Automation Rate is a feature in the SAP MM-PUR Purchasing module that allows users to automate the output of purchase orders. This feature allows users to set up a rate at which purchase orders are automatically generated and sent out to vendors. This rate can be set up for each vendor, allowing users to customize the output of purchase orders for each vendor. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the PO Output Automation Rate feature, users must first set up a rate for each vendor. This rate can be set up in the SAP system by going to the MM-PUR Purchasing module and selecting the “PO Output Automation Rate” option. From there, users can select the vendor they wish to set up a rate for and enter the desired rate. Once this is done, purchase orders will be automatically generated and sent out to vendors at the specified rate. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a PO Output Automation Rate, it is important to consider how often you need purchase orders to be sent out. If you set up a rate that is too high, you may end up sending out too many purchase orders and wasting resources. On the other hand, if you set up a rate that is too low, you may not be able to keep up with demand. It is important to find a balance between these two extremes when setting up your PO Output Automation Rate.
