How does my system Picksup a right Pur Org in SRM

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Can anyone clarify on my below two Points.

Point 1. If I have 3 Purchasing Orgnaizations lets say for example Porg 1 , Porg 2 , Porg 3 for company code A.

So when I raise Shopping cart in the SRM system, how does or on what basis system picks up the correct Purchasing org from the above 3.

Point 2 : Is it based on the Product category that I have choosen in my SHC which is linked to Plant and that Plant is assigned to company code in backend , Then how about the Purchase org in this case ?

is it purely based on Product category and Pur grp.?

I would be pleased to clear my querries

Regards

Hi. SRM will choose a purchasing group based on what product category you choose and where you are in the org structure.

The "Responsibility" tab on the purchasing group org unit will do that.

Then, the purchaing org above the purchasing group will be used.

If you have set the purchasing groups up so that the purchasing org above them in the org structure is not responsible for the plant you choose, you will get an error when creating the backend PO.
