    5. Note that the quantity assigned has been increased by the quantity covered by the two requisitions. Compare the values in the Allocated Quantity field with the values you noted down previously.

    Although this process involves manually created purchase requisitions only, quota arrangements can be applied to purchase orders, planned orders, and material requirements planning, depending on the entry made in the quota arrangement field in the Purchasing view of the item master record.

    If you create a purchase order for an item with a quota arrangement and use a vendor that is not specified in this arrangement, the system will issue a warning message and suggest a vendor from the quota arrangement. You can change this system message from a warning to an error message. In this way, you can prevent the use of a vendor that is not included in the quota arrangement.

  5. Choose until the overview tree appears.
