Hello,

Users assigned to Purchasing Group in your Organizational structure are the purchasers: that is the standard rule !

Those users must be given by the purchasing business team in order to maintain the SRM structure.

Is that what you expected as an answer ?

If not, please clarify your request.

Regards.

Hi there,

SC items are assigned to purchasing groups according to the following

characteristics:

(1) Organizational assignment of the requester: The purchasing group

must be responsible for one department of the requester's parent

reporting line.

(2) Product category of the item: The purchasing group must be

responsible for the chosen product category.

(3) Product category's target system: The purchasing group must be

assigned to the item's target backend system (tab card 'Function').

If not all conditions can be fulfilled at once, the algorithm of

function module BBP_OM_FIND_SC first ignores condition (1), then

(1) & (2), and finally (1) & (2) & (3) to ensure that an item will

always be assigned to a purchasing group.

This of course can be overwritten by your BADI BBP_PGRP_FIND.

Hope this helps,

Kind Regards,

Matthew
