Material substitute in purchase requisition

Former Member

Hi all!

I know that in SD we can manage material determination, but I'd like to know if I can do the same in MM, using for example material substitute when I create a purchase requisition.

Is it possible? Which is the best practise for this?

Thanks

Simone

Hello Simone

May be you can use 'Interchangeability of Parts' functionality for 'Material Exchange in Purchasing;. It is, I believe, meant for Mill Products industry but may be you can make use of it. Check out these links:

As per my best knowledge there's no similar material determination in purchasing in standard system (as I catch you want to determine material "B" when entering material "A" in the requisition.)
