Approved Vendor List

[Former Member]

Hello SRM'ers

Where do we exactly maintain the Approved Vendor List in SRM,?

Is it the same as the R/3 Source List.?

What are the steps to be done on the Configuration side to maintain the AVL.

Thanks in advance

Hi Arshad,

Yes, the Vendor list in SRM is similar to the Source List in R/3. Following are the steps to configure and maintain the AVL:

1.) Role SAP_BBP_STAL_STRAT_PURCHASER or transaction BBPAVLMAINT needs to be assigned to your custom role, whiich then needs to be assigned to your User ID.

2.) Use the Web Gui to access the BBPMAININT transaction

3.) You can create a Vendor List depending on the following fields:

a.) Purchasing Organization

b.) Product Category

c.) Product

4.) Once you select the above 3 fields, you will be allowed to select various vendors/ contracts to create your vendor list for the particular Porg, Product Category and product etc.

Hope this info Helps !!

Pls assign points for usefull answers !

Thanks,
