Hi Swami,

Source of supply u can maintain in Logistic Store and logistic Dc view of article master . It determines whether it will be external or internal procurement or the combination of that and depending on that it will search for supplying site or the info record of the vendor . Supplying site u can maintain in the site master for stores.

hope this helps u.

Hi Swamy,

Master data settings :

Step 1: when u create a store u can assign supplying site(DC) and set the priority. T.code Wb01 and WB02.

Step 2: In the article master logistic store view u assign the source of supply for e.g 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 . 1 is for standard order i.e system will search for inforecord or external vendor. if it s 2 or 4 then system will search for suppling site(DC) first then it will go for vendor .U can check the options available in article master.

process :

When u create a PO or STO it checks the source of supply in te article master depending on that it seeches the vendor or DC .

for e,g in masters it is set a 3 i.e consignment then it will serach for consignment inforecord and u cant create a standard PO for that article.

Hope this helps u.

Hi AM,

If i select source of supply as 2 or 4 then the system takes which "vendor" and where we find the vendor?and in which master data (site or article) we find this "vendor".What are the settings we do in site master data?

Hi swamy,

See supply source 2 is for Stock transfer only .So when u select 2 as supply source for the article in *Logistoc Store view it checks the supplying site(DC only) in the site master . Vendor doesn't come in the picture if supply source is 2.In this case only internal procurement is possible.

And supply source 4 is for "Stock Transfer Before Standard" . When u select supply source 4 it checks the supplying site(DC) first and after that if it doesnt get any DC then it searches for vendor.So internal and external procurement are allowed for the article.

For vendor it searches info record. and for supplying site(DC) it searches site master.
