CIF and representing product at vendor location in SCM

[Former Member]

Hello All:

This question is related to third-party order processing scenario in SCM that is related to Service Parts Management. For a summary of third-party order processing using GATP, please see the link below.

I tested this and in order to make it work, I had to represent the product that is TPOP relevant at the vendor from which the sourcing will be done. My question is this: How will we manage the creation of the product at the vendor? It is not like we can do this through the material integration model (because vendor is not a location in ECC).

Are there other CIF objects that will transfer the product and create a location product at this vendor (so that TPOP can work)? Could you please share your experience?

Thanks,

Satish Vadlamani
