Source list Vendor fixed!

Hi All,
I have maintained a source list for a material with a contract in the source list and the vendor fixed. I have also maintained it as MRP relevant (by having MRP indivcator as 1). The Source list check box in the material master is checked.
Now when I run the MRP for this material I do not have the contract and the fixed vendor form the source list in the PR generated.
I have also tried by maintaining an inforecord (though it doesn't seem related).But it soe
Am I missing something here? Is something missing in the PP configuration?
Please guide. My client wants the contract and the fixed vendor in the sorce list automatically picked in the PR generated by the MRP run.
Regards,
V S

Hi,
What you should do to check if your source of supply is properly set is to manually create PR and assign this contract source of supply to your PR.  If the source of supply is not accepted, then SAP will populate the related error message.
Cheers,

  • Source list vendor

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    We have a problem with soruce list. In the source list there are two vendors maintained and one of them is marlked as fixed vendor, with MRP relevent 1 in the source list. we have two inforecords for the material from two different vendors. one of them is cheaper and that is why we marked this vendor as the fixed vendor in source list. Now when we run the MRP in MD04, the req gets generated but it does not pick either vendor from those two vendors. Why is it happening like this? Is there anything wrong? PLease let me know
    Thanks
    Anusha

    In MD04 show nº planning order or PO and  if the qty is same for tha requirement qty.
    Plase check your parameter MRP t-code MD41  in the fielde Planning mode:
    Planning mode
    Defines how procurement proposals from the last planning run are to be dealt with:
    The system reactivates unfirmed procurement proposals and, if necessary, adapts the quantity and date to the new planning situation. The BOM is re-exploded only for procurement proposals that are to be adapted.
    The system reactivates unfirmed procurement proposals and, if necessary, adapts the quantity and date to the new planning situation. The BOM is always re-exploded.
    The system regenerates unfirmed procurement proposals completely.
    Check too...your date last run MRP in MD06...this material is new or old?? if you already checked in ME03 ( Vendor List) , MEQ3 ( Quota) and Validity... the problem can be in the parameter of the MRP

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

    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.

    > 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?
    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.

  • MPN in source list

    Hi experts!
    I put a specific MPN in the source list as fixed. Then when I make the PO, the system allows me to introduce another MPN, not the one that I specifically inform in the source list.
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
    Thanks,
    Marí

    Hi
    If u r using MPN, then did u maintained AMPL (TXN MP01)
    and not ME01 , which is for non mpn (std materials)

  • How the source list is created automatically

    Hi all,
    Cud any one tell me is there any way to create the source list automatically. as per my knowledge we need to give the tick for the plants we want the source list should be made mandatory while creating the material master.
    How can be make the Source list field for the Purchasing view mandatory while creating the material master .

    Hi,
    You can have the system generate a source list for a material automatically. The system offers you the possibility of quickly entering or updating all source list records for a given source list.
    With this procedure, a source list record can be created for each info record and/or each outline agreement item for one or more materials.
    You can create the source list for several materials (collective procedure) or a single material (individual procedure).
    Prerequisites
    Before you create source list records, consider the following:
    For which materials/plants are the source list records to be generated?
    Are only outline agreement items, only info records, or both be taken into account? (Decision only in the case of the collective procedure.)
    What is the validity period of the source list records to be generated?
    Do source list records already exist for the materials for which you want to create source list records? If so, you must decide whether the old records:
    May not be changed
    Are to be deleted
    Are to be excluded from the validity period of the generated source list records
    Activities
    Collective Procedure
    With this procedure, you generate the source list for several materials.
    Choose Master data Source list Follow-on functions  Generate.
    Enter the necessary data.
    Create the source list.
    A list of the source records to be generated is displayed. Already-existing source list records whose validity periods are thus changed are also listed.
    Select the source list records you want to include in the source list.
    Fixed or blocked source list records: You can mark a source list record as "fixed" or block it. A "fixed" source represents the preferred source of supply, whereas a "blocked" source is one from which you are not allowed to order. Select the desired source list record. Then choose Edit  Fix, or Edit Block.
    Choose  to store the selected source list records for the displayed material in the source list.
    Exception messages are displayed by the system. Press ENTER to continue the saving process.
    Individual Procedure
    With this procedure, you generate the source list for a single material.
    Choose Master data  Source list  Maintain. The initial screen for the source list appears.
    Enter the material and plant number. Then press ENTER to display the overview screen.
    Choose Edit  Generate records.
    In the dialog box which appears, enter the validity period of the source list records to be created.
    First determine how existing source list records are to be treated if their validity periods overlap with the one specified. To do so, set the appropriate indicator in the dialog box. Press ENTER . The source list is created.
    Click  to save the source list.

  • Fixed vendor in source list not recognized by MRP

    Hi
    I have a source list (ME01) with a listed info record for a particular plant/purch.orgvendor/material combo.
    I have ticked the fixed vendor tick and flagged it as MRP relevant (MRP=1).
    When I run the MRP the purchase requisition is created but the vendor field in the purchase requistion is empty. Somehow the MRP does not recognize the source list settings. No fixed vendor is allocated to the purchase requisition.
    Validity period of source list is checked.
    I have checked the User exit LMEQR001, but nothing is implemented.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lars
    Edited by: Lars Tornblom on Jan 15, 2011 5:10 PM

    Hello Lars,
    Please check the following settings in cutomization;
    SPRO>>Materials Management>>Purchasing>>Environment Data>>Define Default Values for Buyers.
    Select : Double Click:  Settings for Default Values.
    Now select the group and go to Source determination Tab.
    In tab under pre-setting of automatic source dtermination indicator.
    Tick the check boxes Create purchase requistion and create purchase order vendor unknown.
    Note: In ME01, if your vendor is external  then you have maiantain thye vendor in vendor fileld. If vendor is internal (say plant to plant transfer) then vendor needs to be maintained under ppl field.

  • Fixed Vendor in Source List

    Hi, All,
    I want to know what's impact if i tick the vendor in the source list?
    1. is it impact for MRP run to assign the source to purchase requisition to generate purchase order?
    2. is it impct for costing run?
    3. can i create purchase order for this material with other different vendor?
    Is there any other impact other than above items?
    if i have no perfer in source list. is there any sequence for source list to dertermine vendor? item 1 is first?
    can i tick mutliple vendors for 'fixed'?
    Thank you in advance

    Hi,
    Hi, All,
    1. is it impact for MRP run to assign the source to purchase requisition to generate purchase order?
    If you have the source list,,, it will suggest the vendor to be considered for procurement. It depends on How the configureation( it allowed to change the vendor)
    2. is it impct for costing run?
    No
    3. can i create purchase order for this material with other different vendor?
    In Standard SAP it is possible,,, it will give warning messeage...again it depends on the config/settings
    Is there any other impact other than above items?
    no other impact

  • Fixed Vendor without Source List

    Hi Gurus,
    My client wants to have a fixed vendor for the Procurement of Consumables which doesnt have a Material Master. I dont have source list also. But i want to make a particular vendor fixed for my purchasing. Is there any options available in SAP to do that?
    Please advice regarding this.
    Thanks,
    Saakithyan

    Regular vendor - Specifies that the material is to be procured from this vendor at client level, i.e. for the entire corporate group. 
    If you set this indicator, the regular vendor is suggested as the only source. 
    If you wish to work with the source determination facility for purchasing documents, it makes sense not to set the indicator so that the system suggests all available sources, not just the regular vendor.

  • Fixed Vendor in Source List not picking in MRP proposals

    Dear All
    For a matrial, we have maintained two Contracts as Sources in Sourcelist. Both sources are valid and MRP relevant(MRPindicator 1 in Source list)
    We then fixed the second Source ( fix indicator in second line in Source List)
    Then Run MRP. The expectation was that the second source will be picked as its fixed. But the MRP proposed Purchase Requstion and Planned orders are picking the first source only (non fixed one)
    Wanted to to clarify whether the fix source indicator does not have any relevance during MRP ? OR is it some other problem?
    Please let me know your thoughts on this.
    Regards
    Shyam

    Hello
    As already mentioned by Jürgen, the indicator 'Fixed source of supply' is not considered by MRP at all.
    See the following note which explains that in more detail:
    110074
    MRP: Source of supply, several valid source list records
    Therefore, please make sure that there is only one source list item relevant to MRP.

  • BDC for ME01 to delete vendors in the source list

    Hi ABAP'ers,
                         I am trying to write a BDC program to delete a particular vendor from ME01 TCODE. My program runs well till deletion after i delete a record it is showing a pop up to confirm and on clicking yes the vendor is deleted. But the source list is not getting saved, or in other words the BDC flow stops after deletion, though i have handled save ok code in my BDC internal table. is there a solution for this.

    Run in mode 'E' and fix whatever you have missed on your BDC.

  • Vendor update / generation in source list

    Hi,
    is there any solution that vendor update / generate in source list with reference to info record creation date.
    standard system behave in a way to generate / update source list on current date of updation.
    Regards,
    Ali

    Even I had the same problem.  source determination in MRP is different when compared to source determination in PR. MRP just picks the first vendor in the source list no matter whether the other vendor is fixed or not.
    Even SAP doesn't have proper answer on this issue in OSS note 206684.
    As others said, you need to copy ME05 and create a new TCODE with different logic for source list date.

  • Create SA from PR - Vendor from source List

    Dear All,
    I am creating a SA from PR, where i have selected a vendor & info record. and now when i tried to create a SA wrt PR, system is asking for a Vendor and if i entered different vendor also its accepting & again asking for the Net price. Can i make such that during SA if I do against the PR system needs to pick the Vendor from the PR(Source of supply) & price from PIR ?
    regds,
    CB

    Dear Friend,
    In this case Better you maintain the source list for that vendor and material in Me01, and make FIX vendor
    if you do this system will not allow to the another vendor for particular date range
    Or
    Maintain the Quota arrangement for the it will select the vendors based on the quota rating

  • Single material , two vendors how to maintaint source list

    Dear Experts,
                         we are buying  same material from two vendors, how to maintain source list for both material?. if i its possible , whether system will generate schedule lines for both material? please advice.
    regards
    rajakarthik

    Hi,
    Source list is the list for the number of vendors for a material in a purchase org .You can also fix a vendor here.You can procuire the material from both the vendors creating aggrement( ME31K).If you have delivery schedule lines you can go for SA--and schedules for both of them but while creating the PO you need to refer the relevamt aggrement.If not you can aslo the use the functionality of quota AT MEQ1.Source list caters only to some generic needs.
