Question:
Hi Experts,
I have a few questions regarding source list box in R/3. Below are my questions.
What is the Source List Box in R/3?
What does the Source List Box effect?
How does the Source List Box in R/3 tie in with the Purchase Req's that are being generated in APO passing through the CIF to R/3?
Why does checking the R/3 Source List Box in the product master block the CIF? And How?
If we uncheck the Source List Box, will we still get APO Purchase Req's passed through the CIF to R/3 AND will will they be tied to the correct supplier when we turn those PO's into Req's?
Thanks,
Agapito

Answer:
Hi,
I have tried answering your queries
1. The source list box activates the list of sources (vendors) for a material. You need to activate the source list in Customizing
2. The source list effects the preferred vendor for a material, also the MRP relevance indicator should be set
3. When you transfer the Purchase Info Record which creates the transportation lanes between the source location and destination location. the source of the material in the Purchase Requisition will be selected according to the preferred vendor set in the Source list (if you have maintained multiple vendors).
4. Can you please make your question more clear?
5. When you deactivate the source list, you will still get the PR and the vendor specified, however if you maintain multiple vendors for a material then it creates a problem.
Hope this helps

Mani

Hi Mani,
Thanks for the reply.
Regarding the fourth question, why does checking the source list box in mm02(r/3) populate CIF error in APO? the error is "No Source List despite source list requirement".
Thanks and Best Regards,
