Source of supply not picked automatically

[Former Member]

I have created a shopping cart in SRM system after approval Reservation is getting created in ECC and after MRP run purchase requisition is created but Source of supply is not assigned automatically.

Source list option has been checked in Material master purchasing view.

Source list is also created for the material.

Please suggest.

Please refer to SAP Note 206684 - MRP: automatic source determination:

• A valid source list entry for this material

• If the source list contains more than one valid entry, NONE of these entries is taken into account up to and including Release 4.0B.

• The 'Source list usage in materials planning and control' indicator must be set to '1' or '2' ('2' if delivery schedules are meant to be generated).

• If you have an outline agreement with special procurement (for example, subcontracting or consignment), you must have entered the corresponding special procurement key in the material master of the corresponding material.

• When you use quota arrangement, the special procurement key of the quota arrangement item must correspond to the special procurement key for the source list entry (recognizable, for example, in table EORD). If, for example, the special procurement in the material master is changed, when the source list entry already exists, not corresponding special procurement keys can occur and a new source list entry must be created.
