Dear SRMers,
System: SRM 5.0
We need to configure a scenario in SRM 5.0, where the user assigned to one purchasing organization in a company code should be able to procure from other purchasing organizations within the same company. Please let me know what configuration needs to be done to accomplish this scenario.
Points will be rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
Bob.
Hi Bob,
Your user can procure for more than one purchasing group.....which is assigned to other purchasing organisation.....for that go to the responsiablity tab of that purchasing group and add your user as positon......Thanks
Regards
Debu

Hi Navneet,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
For the Requester attribute in the Org structure for the user, can we specify the other Purchasing Organization Id that the user can shop against, or do we need to the specify the Organization Unit under which this purchasing orgaziation belongs to?
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,
Bob
Hi Bob,
Yes, please go ahead and populate the Purchasing Org Unit's requester attribute with the Org Unit ID (i.e. Other Purchasing Org ID) that you want your user to Shop on Behalf of from another purchasing organization.
Some Additional information to set up the Requester attribute:
REQUESTER
Goods recipient
Example value: See definition
Indicates the organizational units or users for which this employee can create shopping carts, and so on.
A user can select all users in an organizational unit as alternative goods recipients if the attribute is maintained with the following entry, for example: O 50000019.
If a specific user is to be selected as alternative goods recipient, the attribute needs to be maintained as follows: <US><User ID of alternative goods recipient>, for example USMANAGER22.
<b>Shop on behalf of</b>: You have to maintain this attribute for the buying on behalf of application. You enter all users for whom a secretary can order.
The values defined for the attribute form the basis for the F4 help for the Goods Recipient field available to the secretary or other employee creating shopping carts for other users in the Shop scenario.
<b>PLEASE ASSIGN POINTS IF ANSWER IS USEFULL !!</b>
Hi Bob,
We had a situation where we wanted the purchase org of the requestor to be tied to the company code of the requestor/shopping cart. This is not supported out of the box with SRM and so we had to use the doc change badi and the ecs out badi to control what purchase org is assigned in a shopping cart and then PO.
We are using extended classic scenario in SRM 4.0 with full HR integration.
Regards,
Tom
