Overview

PO_AUTOCREATE_DOC is an Oracle EBS PL/SQL package owned by the APPS schema that supports the Oracle Purchasing AutoCreate workflow. Its primary business function is to drive the automatic creation of purchase order and blanket agreement documents from approved requisition lines, enforcing the sourcing rules, buyer defaults, and release generation rules configured for the operating unit. The package is classified as a general-purpose (OTHER) API and is not a public, supported interface, so it is typically invoked by Oracle's own requisition processing, workflow, and document action logic rather than by customer code. It is validated in both 12.1.1 and 12.2.2 and references standard SYS objects as well as various APPS synonyms.

Usage Notes

PO_AUTOCREATE_DOC is invoked indirectly through Oracle Purchasing's requisition autocreation and workflow processes rather than being called from EBS forms directly. It is referenced by PO_DOCUMENT_ACTIONS_SV and PO_REQAPPROVAL_LAUNCH, and it is referenced by two other packages, indicating it is a dependency of the autocreate and document action flows. Because it is classified as OTHER, it is not part of the supported public API surface; customizations should avoid calling its procedures directly, as signatures and behavior may change between releases. Administrators typically interact with this functionality through the AutoCreate concurrent program and the Purchasing responsibility, where the package's buyer-resolution, sourcing, and workflow logic executes behind the scenes.
