Automatic Vendor determination

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have maintained source list for the combination for Vendor and Material and also maintained source list with MRP indicator 1 and Fixed vendor indicator. When i create the Purchase requisition from MRP it is picking up the vendor from source list, but when i create the purchase requisition from Sales order automatically (Third party Processing), it is not picking up the vendor automatically from source list.

Is that standard SAP issue?

Hi,

this is a statement from OSS Note 601983 - Source determination for 3rd party/individual purchase order:

When you create a sales order with an individual purchase order or third-party items, the system determines a source of supply automatically when generating the purchase requisition if the source of supply is unique.

The MRP indicator is not taken into account in this case.

Hi Jürgen,

Thanks for your reply.

But when i create the Purchase Requisition from sales order it is not assigning the source supply from source list

[JL23]

do you have a unique source of supply?

how many sources do you have in the source list?
