in me01 t-code,

there is one field called "ppl"..

here, we need to give our plant or vendor's plant from which we'll procure material..

pls help..

You can not maintain any Vendor Specific data in MM01/MM02?MM03 because

1. Material Master will be at client Level and not Vendor Specific..

2. You can not maintain any Vendor Organizational data in SAP..

3. and Don't think that every vendor will have any plants..

then, how run source determination in the background?

and in which case?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

what is the t-code to run source list automatically?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

During source determination process in the background, the system checks all the available source of supply in the same order as mentioned above. If the system finds more than one source of supply out of quota arrangement or source list, then system determine a unique source out of these to enable a purchase order to subsequently be generated automatically. If several sources are found at outline agreement and info record level then system gives the outline agreement precedence over the info record in order to arrive at a unique source. If two outline agreements are found, the system checks whether one of them is with a regular vendor. If so, this agreement is assigned as the unique source. If during the above process system does not find and assigned a suitable source of supply to the requirement (automatic purchase order), then you must assigned the source manually.

Hi,

Go to the transaction ME56. 'Assign Source of Supply to Requisitions' screen will open.

Enter the selection criteria for your PR's i.e. which all PR's you want to assign a source of supply.

On the Menu Bar at top follow the path ....Program->Execute in Background.

Revert in case you have doubts.

Regards,
