Sourcing and source of supply -> when does it happen?

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Can anybody tell me how the sourcing / source of supply assignment works in standard classic scenario?

This is the situation;

Classic scenario.

Price and vendor (and maybe even info record nr) are known in the internal catalog.

Is the standard process (not sure if standard is the right word ) that you would transfer the price and vendor to the shopping cart? (price is needed for approval)

Or can you also source already in the SHC? And get the price directly from ECC info record?

Or is this sourcing done in the PO and not yet in the SHC?

Are there any best practices on this? (sourcing / assigning directly from backend can prevent difference between catalog price and change price in info recordu2026delta due to timing)

Any ideas or setups on how you did it could be helpful, so please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Marius Hartman

Internal catalog is totally different. Sc can be created via catalog also.

nowadayas you can transfer info record to MADM and you can utilise be specific what is your internal catalog.

Q1:-Is the standard process (not sure if standard is the right word ) that you would transfer the price and vendor to the shopping cart? (price is needed for approval)

A1:- so this purchase inforecord price or contract price will not be considereed for sc approval process via internal goods and services.

Q2:- Or can you also source already in the SHC? And get the price directly from ECC info record?

A2:- while creating PO sc takes that proce from info record and creates a PO with info record/ contract price .while ordering cart , sc just takes material price.

Or is this sourcing done in the PO and not yet in the SHC?

PO will be created by the purchaser after assigning the vendor ,

Are there any best practices on this? (sourcing / assigning directly from backend can prevent difference between catalog price and change price in info recordu2026delta due to timing).

you can not change inforecord price in srm via sc.
