Question how SAP behaviours if blocked vendor fixed in src list or in Quota

[Former Member]

Hi There,

I would like to know what to expect in the following situation when i create a requisition and activate source determination:

1 Sourcelist - I have create a 2 vedour source list. Fixed one vendor. The fixed vendor record is blocked. Will the system send an error msg in the Purchase req or will the system automatically asign the other vendor without sending a message?

2. Quota arrangement - I have set up a 2 vendor quota arrangement. The effective quota vendor record is blocked, what will the system do when I try to create a requsition and activate source determination?

Regards.

Case : 1

First of all You cannot Select Indicator Fixed and Blocked in Source List at a Time. you should select only one either Fixed or Blocked. Otherwise System throws the following Error.

06 797 Please select either "blocked" or "fixed" indicator

Case : 2

If you Select Vendor in Souce list as Fixed and if you Block the Verndor in MK05 / XK05 then System wont suggest the Vendor and throw an error based on your Settings.

Hi

Answer for qn 2) As quota is blocked for material then system searches for available Source list, Outline agreement and info record in this respective order mentioned.

1. In case the source is fixed and related vendor is blocked System will not choose this vendor nor it will automatically assign the vendor. It will allow you to choose your source.

Hope this helps
