Purchase order record
Explanation:
I looked in SAP's internal terminology DB and this term isn't an official SAP term. However, the term "Bestellentwicklungssatz" IS used, with the corresponding translation of "purchase order history record".

So I suggest "purchase order record" to separate it clearly from just an "order record".

More research using other official SAP terminology: "Bestellpreisentwicklungssatz" is translated as "order price history record" with "purchase order price history record" as a permitted synonym.

Again, this SAP terminology DB (issued by SAP) does not contain Bestellsatz, but I think the use of "purchase order" to separate the term from Auftragssatz (which has the official translation of just "order record").

agree  Hilary Davies Shelby: this is what I would have gone for too - they're usually (at least in MM and Retail) quite clear about distinguishing PO from order. Hi Joanne ;-)
