Note
A waste generator is a
vendorin the system if it has been assigned a vendor as an integration object in the
master data
(see
Assigning Integration Objects
).
If you have assigned a waste disposer to an entry document but the system determines more than one contract (for example, because several waste approvals have been assigned to the disposal channel), a dialog box appears in which you must select a contract.
Caution
If you have assigned several waste disposers to an entry document, the system determines the contract or purchasing info record for all of them in the way described. If the system finds several contracts or purchasing info records, several purchase orders are created.
If the contract determined contains an incorrect vendor, material, or material group, in other words if you did not observe the Notes on Assigning Contracts when you assigned a contract to a disposal channel or waste approval, an error message is displayed. The purchase order is not created and the purchasing info records are not taken into account.
