Hi

successful PO will create vendor buyer assign a vendor in the existing PO.

or

end user if assigned a prefered vendor and no sourcing config. It will create a HELD po only then buyer enter a vendor and order PO .

if the end user assign a fixed sos , successful PO will be created

partner function -39 prefered vendor

partner funtion- 19 fixed vendor

Hi

Assign the vendor again in the PO and order it. It will create a successful PO

When Purchaser assigned vendor in the processing PO it treats fixed vendor in ECS

please some one correct if i am wrong.

Hi

if you do define sourcing

for a particular product category

souricng without source of supply

though you assigned preferred vendor - it is not a valid source of supply

now the cart come to cockpit to the responsible purchaser.

purchaser will asiign vendor . then PO will create.
