SC created while vendor not maintained for company code - error expected

[Former Member]

We are on SRM 5.5 ext classic scenario

We have for certain part of company 1 Purchase Org and multiple company codes

Vendor Y is maintained in Purchase Org A and ONLY in company code 123

User creates now SC on Vendor Y in Purch Org A for company code 456. I would expect a error message like

'Vendor xxxxx has not been maintained for company code xxxx' .

but SC cart is created and after approval PO is even replicated to backend w/o any error.

How come? Any help or suggestions welcome ?

Hi,

As far as my knowledge goes, Vendors are replicated based on the P.Org and not the Co Cd.

I was triggered by this post http://scn.sap.com/thread/3181502 that check should be there, but see it is old one related to SRM 4

So no check on company code exists ? Means PO is created and we have an issue/error on Invoice Receipt in backend...

any suggetions how to solve? is this post valid one http://scn.sap.com/thread/1540421

Hi,

P.Orgs are assigned to Co Cd.

So , it means that the Vendor is also mapped with the Co Cd.

I have never seen an error stating that the " Vendor XYZ has not been replicated for the Co Cd ABC"

However we come across errors stating that the "Vendor XYZ has not been replicated for the P.Org 1234"
