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.

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

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 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

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

Source List validity dates for MRP only

Hi.
Is there a way to do the following:
Set purchasing view "source list required" so that the material must be purchased from ANY of the sources on the source list... AND...
Setup the source list so that there are no overlaps, and MRP sources from consecutive contracts based on the source list validity dates.
For example, 1/1/10 to 5/1/10 -> Contract A (mrp relevant); 5/2/10-10/1/10 -> Contract B (mrp relevant). But on 5/3/10 I want to be able to manually change the requisition away from "B" and release against Contract A. In other words, I want MRP to get the sourcing close to correct, but allow the user the ability to override the MRP sourcing, AND still ensure that the source the user picks is on the source list somewhere.
When I try this now, the system generates "Source list not included in list despite source list requirement." The source list checking seems to be done all the way at the validity period level.

hi,
I understood your concept. Please explain it clearly so that why this message
is appearing " Source list not included in list despite source list requirement"
can be found out

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

Error when blocking a vendor in source list

We are trying to block a vendor from the Source list (Tcode ME01), however this vendor was created in a different system and imported into our current system.
The error message we receive states "Source list record created in a different system". We are unable to save the change, so it is not a warning message, but an error.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

your source list records get created in a central system. if you delete an entry you create inconsistencies to your central system (and you may get this record back soon undeleted).
Contact the guys who create the source list in this different system and let they maintain the block and distribute it to your system again with ALE.

MPN Material - Source list not included issue

Hi,
I am trying to create a purchase order for a material which has a MPN material # specified in the source list. When I create the purchase order, I get the error "Source not included in list despite source list requirement".
I do not get the error when I remove the MPN material # from the source list.
I looked at MM03 for MPN material # and it looked correct.
Please help.
Nicky

Hi
There are 2 settings for source list requirment mandatory at PO.
1) Material Master record > Purchasing view
2) IMG>MM>Purchasing>Source list>Define at plant level
if the setting is active then you have maintain the source list for that particular material.
if the above setting are not there and still you are getting error then you have to check if any enhancements done .
Hope it helps

Mail enabled list not picking up items from the drop folder.

Hi all,
I'm sorry if this has already been addressed but my searches didn't turn up anything that helped.
Our site has some mail enabled lists, that used to work and now do not. Here is a list of things I've verified and done.
1. Verified that email reaches the drop folder.
2. Verified that the list accepts messages from any sender.
3. Verified that the incoming email address is the same as the sender.
4. In Central Admin verified the settings mode is set to advanced, that the SMTP mail server for incoming mail is correct, and that the e-mail drop folder is correct.
5. Restarted the Sharepoint 2010 Timer Service.
6. Restarted the IIS server that hosts the virtual SMTP Server, and restarted the IIS server hosts sharepoint.
7. Verified that the service account has permission to the drop folder.
8. Looked through event log and found nothing.
9. Verified Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Incoming E-Mail is running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
Update: Looking through Event Viewer an error along this line appears.

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

Source List for Standard and Subcontracting Info Record

Dear Sir and Madam,
We have scenario where nart A could purchase with Standard PO or Subcontract PO.
We have following 2 Standard Info Record and 2 Subcontract Info Record.
Standard InfoRec 1 for Nart A to Vendor 001 --Fixed Vendor
Standard InfoRec 2 for Nart A to Vendor 002
Subcontract InfoRec 1 for nart A to Vendor 003 - Fixed Vendor
Subcontract InfoRec 2 for nart A to Vendor 004
We have the problem here, how can we set the fixed vendor in Source List, for Standard PO using vendor 001 and Subcon using Vendor 003?
Thank you very much,
Regards,
CW

In source list only one vendor can be assigned.
If u want to assign 2 or more vendor, try using Quota Arragement.

SNP Heuristics is not picking up contracts as source of supply

Hi Experts,
I have a strange situation here. I have integrated a vendor contract with APO, which has created an external procurement relationship and a valid transportation lane. When I create a receipt element manually through /n/sapapo/rrp3, the source of supply is determined rightly to this vendor and receipt is created.....but when I run location SNP heuristics interactively, system generates receipt element without any reference to this source of supply. Expectation is creation of receipt element with reference to vendor and contract...
System release is SCM 5.1 with ECC 6
Am I missing something?....please let me have your inputs...
Thanks and regards,
Raghav

Hi Aparna,
Thank you for your response.
I have checked the note, but it is applicable till SCM 500 SP 13. Our's is SCM 5.1 and this is inclusive I suppose. As per the SAP SCM standard documentation, external procurement relationship between vendor and receiving plant can be created through following 3 docuements:
1. Purchase infor record
2. Scheduling agreement
3. Contracts
Additionally, as per documentation, even source list between plant and vendors can be integrated by enabling the same through R/3 transaction 'CIFPUCUST01'.
I have worked with first two and SNP considers these for source determination. When I tried to integrate the contract, though it is creating TL between 'vendor --> receiving plant' and an active external procurement relationship, SNP is not found considering this for source determination. When I tried to use the source list for creating TL and esternal procurement relationship, the same is not creating any.
What type of contracts can be used for SNP planning and what else required to be done for integrating source list? I have enabled source list in R/3 material master. Source list is maintained as 'MRP relevant' in R/3.
Thanks and regards,
Raghav
