sourcing of product categories

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are running on SRM 5.0 and ECC 6.0

In our scenario--if shopping cart is a catalog item,purchase order is created automatically.

If the shopping cart is created using 'describe requirement' link--the shopping cart is sent to sourcing.

But in the configuration step "define sourcing for product categories'...all the categories are included and have the entry 'sourcing always carried out'.

And we also have the sourcing BADI 'define execution of sourcing' implemented.The logic in it is if the item is from catalog,no sourcing should be carried out.But if it isn't a catalog item, carry out sourcing.

My question is--do we need the configuration step of 'define sourcing for product categories'?Will the BADI not suffice?

Thanks

Trey

Hi

I believe it is standard but you can take into cockpit badi bbp_src_determine (you can write your own logic).

Always your catalog have fixed source of supply so it will not go to sourcing cockpit even though define sourcing always.

am i correct.
