SOURCE LIST DETERMINATION

Dear all,
          As i got the solution for the problem of "fixing the vendor" i thankful for that.
The problem is again regarding the source list determination as follows--
1) I maitained the inforecord for Material "X" vendors are -- "A" "B" "C"
2) I maitained the source list for Material "X" vendors are -- "A" "B" "C"( here i want the all 3 vendors are to be active for same period like from 01.04.2009 to 31.12.9999)
3) i fix the "A" vendor only.
          As i m going to make a purchase order by different then above three vendor system generates error.Now when i correct the vendor for material i.e i get the vendor list for that material from the vendor tab,i found the 3 vedors for that material A ,B & c.But as i only fix the vendor "A" system only allows the to make po bye vendor "A". no other two vendor allows in that PO. where as those vendors are assign to that..
          in short i want to make all 3 vendors as "fix vendor" for that material for same period.
Hope problem will be clear.
Hoping reply earlier,
Thanking you,
Manish.

dear sir,
           I understand what u mean,but the problem is that,my all 3 vendors are useable for specified time i.e 01.04.2009 to 31.12.2010. At the time being i cant say that ir i cant use any perticualr vendor for perticular time,likeweise follows,
sometimes the vendor "a" provides the rate for steel as 34.00/kg ,the same vendor offers the price 45.0/kg for same month whereas the vendor B" offering the price of steel for 40.00/kg.at that time it will be nothing to think about vendor "A",i will dorectly siwtch over to vendor "B" or "C",now if i have fox the vendor a for time period system should not allows me to capture vendor B" or "C" for purchasing,
Also i cant give any autorisation to user for block or fix the vendir to material or by making changes in source list.
please reply
Manish....

  • Source List Validity Start Date

    I have noticed that, if the source list validity start date and contract validity start date are same then, the contract price is not considered while creating PO and receive error message as "Source not included in list despite source list requirement"
    If I change the validity start date of source list to one day before the validity start date of Contract then system is picking the contract price in PO and able to save PO successfully.
    Is there any way to create PO even if the validity start date of source list and contract are same?

    from OSS Note 44368 - ME51 ME57 Contract as source of supply
    A contract that is valid on the delivery date but not on the current date is not taken into account in the source determination process.
    Cause and prerequisites
    This is programmed this way.
    Solution
    For reasons of upward compatibility, check will continue to be carried out on basis of current date.
    However, if you wish the check to be against delivery date, you can implement the modification described under the advance corrections.
    If Note 116464 is implemented in a 4.0B Release, use the advance correction from Release 4.5A, however, in Release 4.0B the program name is LMEQRF01.

  • How to select the vendor from the source list in the PO(me21n) screen ??

    Hi
    How to select the vendor from the source list in the PO(me21n) screen.
    Is there any Sources of Supply tab in the PO just like we have in the PR.
    I don't want a PO raised from a PR which has got the Vendor assigned to it already.
    Or the SAP doesnot provide the option of Source list/Assign source/Sources of Supply .....in the PO.
    Kindly reply

    There is not any facility available for Source Determination in PO. Only you can select the line item and click Menu Environment > Source List and view the list of sources available for the material but you can not chooss and assign. If you wan to assign the vendor then change the vendor already entered in PO and put the desired vendor.

  • Source List (Error message 06 722)

    Hi all,
    1.the material being ordered has the source list requirement flagged in the material master in purchasing view.
    2.source list has been maintained(with a same vendor in several contracts in different periods)
    3.both above belonged to a same plant 1000.
    when ME21N, I input vendor, material, hope it can find the contract I maintained in the source list, unfortunately, the error message 06 722 displayed!
    but there is no problem if I manually enter a contract number in ME21N, i.e, I can save the po.
    my question is:
    is it standard by design?
    as I know, when I create PR, tick "source determination", it can find the proper source if I maintained a correct source list.
    but in ME21N, it seems the system cannot find the proper source unless I manully input the contract number!!!
    Error message 06 722

    Check the plant you entered for the item.
    Maintain the source of supply in the source list for this material/plant combination:
    1. Select the item.
    2. Select Environment -> Source list.
    3. Enter the corresponding material and plant.
    4. Maintain the data for the source of supply and then select Save.
    5. Select Mark in order to get the data for the purchase order that was created.
    6. Exit the purchase order and restart the SAP ordering transaction.
    7. Select Check.
    hi,
    it is not relevant....

  • IPod not showing up in source list

    A friend of mine wanted me to revamp her iPod with my music, erasing all that she had. Problem is, iTunes isn't seeing the iPod. My computer is. It's coming up as Mass Storage Device, and not showing up in the source list on iTunes. And when I opened the "Mass Storage Device" is was empty with the exception of some empty folders. The weird part is, iTunes opens when I plug it in. I already updated my iTunes software and reset the iPod with that menu center button hold manuver, and restarted my computer a few times. All the other troubleshooting stuff needs the iPod to show up in the source list, which it's not doing. So yeah. Any help would be nice.

    Where did she originally connect her iPod??? It could be in MAC format and thus not allowing your device to see it... See this KB Article to determine the device's format:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1335
    Besides the disclaimer of music sharing, once you erase the content of her device and load your iTunes data on there it will be ok. But of course the next friends device that she hops onto will undo the process that you've done above.
    An iPod is really meant for a single users PC/MAC and syncronizing thier library. This causes some of the issues that you are seeing here.
    Hope that helps, and I'll end on the piracy harping...

  • 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.

  • MRP - source list!!

    Hi All,
    I have two vendors in the source list. I have fixed the second vendor in the source list.
    When I run the MRP for the material the system assigns the first vendor to the PR and not the second vendor which is fixed!!
    This is something strange. The MRP run should always pick the fixed vendor as per my understanding.
    Is this a timing issue? Is it that the MRP only considers master data that I have created yesterday?
    I say this because in certain cases when I have maintained the source list or the quota arrangement it was effective only the next day and not on the same day!! Is there any specific config related to MRP for this?
    Regards,
    Vishal

    hi,
    A.check for the few things:
    1. Always remember the source determination is in this way:
    a. quota arrangement
    b. source list
    c. outline agreement
    d. Inforecord
    Now check whether there is any exsisting vendor record for the quota arrangement...
    B. Check the validity period of the source list...
    C. check whether there is A vendor ticked or mentioned as "Regular vendor"
    D. Also check whether the B vendor for whom you want the MRP to run, is indicated as MRP relevent or not...with the MRP indicator in the source list...
    Check these parameters..

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Purchasing Info Record and Source list

    Hi all,
          I am using purchasing info record along with a price for the vendor and material.  This would get the net price into the Purchase order.  Do i really need to create source list ?  What will source list do for me ?   Wouldn't having info record be sufficient ?
         Looking forward to hear your suggestions.
    Thank you.
    Joyce

    Hi Joyce,
    If you have not maintained valid conditions in your Pur info record then price is picked from last purchase order through purchase order price history if customizing settings allow so (In your case if customizing settings allow and the net price 100 in the info record is not from valid conditions, price picked will be 250).
    In the price determination process in PO system always first looks for pur info records with valid conditions if not found then it looks for last PO price.
    There is also a parameter for default values for buyers called EVO. If you make settings in customizing for this parameter and tick the Chkbox for picking the last purchase order price in it and you attach this parameter to your user ID in the user-own data with PI value, then last PO price is picked as default value in the net price.

    Source List -
    The source list is used in the administration of sources of supply. It specifies the allowed (and disallowed) sources of a material for a certain plant within a predefined period. Each source is defined by means of a source list record.
    The source list serves:
    To define a source of supply as "fixed". Such sources count as preferred sources over a certain period of time.(For example, the fixed vendor for material 1 is X for the first quarter and Yfor the second quarter of the year.)
    To define a source of supply as "blocked".(This means, for example, that contract 123 may not be used for a certain period of time.)
    As an aid in selecting the preferred source during the source determination process.(For example, the vendor A is determined as the source for an item of a requisition dated 15th June relating to material 1.)

  • Source not determined for MRP generated PR

    Hi,
    I am not getting my source determined after the MRP is run for the Purchase requisions.That means I am not getting the Source termination tab activated and source of supply identified in the PR created after MRP run. Eventually I am unable to convert the PRs to PO properly and asking to add manually. I have maintained the source List and fixed the vendor.
    Pls assist where might be the wrong happening..
    Regards
    Shash

    check for Source determination tick in MMR for material...
    Again check source list...
    also check whether you have used proper indicator for MRP relevent in Source list..

  • Scheduling agmt v/s Source list validity dates

    Hi,
    When the MRP runs it is considering the Source list validity even if the Scheduling agreement is invalid. Can you please advice if this is standard SAP behavior and if there exist any configuration to control this ?

    Hello
    Your question is very generic, so can you please provide a more detailed description of your issue?
    What do you mean by "scheduling agreement is invalid"?
    It is not valid on the date, the target quantity has been exceeded or what?
    In the meantime, I wrote the following document with the most frequent issues reated to MRP source determination that may be useful to you:

  • No effective source of supply despite valid source in Source List

    Hi,
    Can somebody help me why I can't assign source of supply in PR when I already have multiple valid vendors with info records maintained on the material? I'm using MPN material to maintain info record. I have checked all my master data with validity dates and they are all valid. Also, I noticed that there are no effective source displaying when I do simulation inside ME01 (Source List). Maybe that is one of the reason why I can't assign source of supply in PR.
    hoping for an immediate reply.
    Thanks,
    MM

    If it can't find ANY source and you definitely have FULL info records (I mean manually manitained with ME11 / 12) and you definitely have sources in the source list, then are these entries correct, are the date ranges valid, is the P org correct?
    This functionality WILL work if the data is set up correctly but there are lots of small elements of that data that could stop the system from determining a valid source.
    Try changing one of the entries in the source list (just the date for instance) just to see if there are any warning messages triggered.

  • Source list & quota arrangement

    At which level the source list is maintained:
    Client Level
    Plant Level
    Purchasing Org. level
    When source determination takes place, does the quota arrangement takes precedence over a fixed vendor?

    Hi Vishal,
    At which level the source list is maintained?
    Plant level.
    When source determination takes place, does the quota arrangement takes precedence over a fixed vendor?
    Yes, it does.
    The system determines the source of supply of a requested material on the basis of the following factors (in the order shown):
    1. Quota arrangement
    The system first determines whether a quota arrangement within whose validity period the delivery date in the requisition falls exists for the material.
    If a quota arrangement exists, the system determines the vendor from whom the material is to be procured according to the quotas assigned to the vendors and then suggests the source.
    If no source can be determined this way, the system checks the source list.
    2. Source list
    The system determines whether an entry in the source list within whose validity period the delivery date of the requisition falls exists for the material. The source in question may be a fixed vendor or an outline agreement (contract or scheduling agreement).
    If the source list contains a unique source, the requisition is assigned to that source.
    If several sources are found, a box appears for selection purposes.
    If no source could be determined, the existing outline agreements and info records are examined.
    3. Outline agreement and info record
    The system searches for contracts, scheduling agreements, and info records for the material and suggests these.
    (If info records with more than one purchasing organization exist, all info records of the purchasing organization(s) that is/are responsible for procurement for the requesting plant are also suggested.)
    If several outline agreements and perhaps info records exist, all possible sources are offered for selection in a box.
    When an info record is found, the following two additional checks are carried out:
    - Check of supply region
    The system checks whether a certain supply region is specified in the associated vendor master record. If so, the system checks whether the plant in the purchase requisition belongs to this region. If not, the info record is discarded as a possible source.
    - Check of regular vendor
    The system checks whether a regular vendor has been specified for the material (that is, a vendor valid for the entire corporate group, or client). If this is the case, and it has been specified in Customizing that the regular vendor takes precedence, the info record for this vendor will be preferred as the source.
    Hope this will help.
