Assigning Requisns. to Sources/Further Processing 

Use

This section explains the functions provided by the SAP System for converting requisitions into purchasing documents (purchase orders, contract release orders, scheduling agreement delivery schedules, RFQs), and the processing options thereby available to you.

Features

The system offers you the following functions:

This involves assigning sources of supply to individual requisition items

This involves the manual creation of purchase orders or delivery schedule lines from a list of requisitions with assigned sources

This involves assigning sources to listed purchase requisitions and creating RFQs, POs, and delivery schedule lines. (This function is a combination of "Assign Purchase Requisitions" and "Further Processing of Purchase Requisitions via the Assignment List". You can also change order quantities and delivery dates.)

This involves having the system generate POs automatically from a list of purchase requisitions with assigned sources (see Automatic Generation of POs from Requisitions.)

Assignment and Further Processing of Requisitions: Options

The assignment of sources to and further processing of purchase requisitions are two distinct functions. You can choose whether you wish to perform the functions in two separate steps or in just one.

In two separate worksteps:
If the two functions are to be performed in separate steps (by two different individuals, for example), use the following menu paths:

See Assigning Purchase Requisitions to Sources

See Creating POs, Delivery Schedule Lines, and RFQs from Requisitions

In a single workstep:
If you wish to perform both functions in a single step, choose Requisition
