Multiple Preferred Vendors in Source of Supply -Shopping cart

[Former Member]

Hi SRM Gurus,

While Creating Shopping Cart, the requestor need to assign multiple (more than one) preferred vendors as Sources of Supply.

I could able to choose only one preferred vendor. How can we choose, more than one preferred vendor.

Thanks in advance,

Hi

<u>Do you mean that you shopping cart consists of more than 1 line items or what ?</u>

It is very much possible incase you are having a SC, with say 2 line items. Then for each line item, you can assign different sources of supply (vendors), provided that the Requistioner user has all necessary roles and authorizations to delete existing sources of supply and assign preferred vendor as a Fixed vendor in that case.

Do let me know, incase you still have any issues.

Hi Atul,

For a single line item of the shopping cart, We would like to have multiple vendor as preferred vendors.

Please suggest, if SAP provides any.

Hi

SRM does not allows this functionality to have multiple fixed vendors for a single line item.

There can be multiple preffered vendors displayed in the search results. But at a time, only one vendor can be assigned to a line item as a fixed vendor.

In SRM system, even if you programmatically using BADI - BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, try to assign more than one vendors to aline item, you cannot order that shopping cart further.

<b>So, not possible.</b>

Hope this will help.
