In order to reduce the time needed in order processing, the system can propose items from the following sources:

If a customer frequently orders the same combination of materials, or if you recommend a particular selection of products for an opening order, you can store the frequently used data as an item proposal in the system. If you wish, the item proposal may also include proposed order quantities. During sales order processing, you can then copy all or some of the materials and quantity data from the item proposal directly into your document (sales order, quotation, and so on). In addition, you can assign a particular item proposal to one or more specific customer master records. The system can then automatically propose the number of the assigned item proposal whenever you process sales orders for the relevant customers.
