Sourcing in the Purchase Order

Use

From Release 3.0, the professional purchaser can carry out sourcing for all items that have not been confirmed during processing of local purchase orders.

In addition, the professional purchaser can now see immediately in the item overview whether sourcing exists for certain products. The purchaser can search for and assign the following sources of supply in the purchase order:

  • Contracts and contract items
  • Vendor-dependent prices (interlinkages)

The purchaser can use the following functions:

  • Overview of vendors suggested by the system
The user interface for sourcing contains a vendor overview. Here, general and summary data is displayed for the vendor, such as the total order value and the percentage total value that the vendor can cover for the existing purchase order.
The purchaser can see straight away the total of best items of recommended vendors via the defaulted purchase order value. This function is especially useful if several vendors have the same degree of coverage (for example 100 %). It is immediately obvious which vendor is the more competitive.
  • Detail display in two views
In the vendor overview, the purchaser selects the possible vendors. Enterprise Buyer displays details in an overview tree that is sorted in two ways and can be used for sourcing according to:
  • Purchase order items

  • Contract items

  • Several ways to select sources of supply
The purchaser can select the relevant sources of supply in the detail view and transfer them to the purchase order item:
  • One or more conditions for a vendor

  • One or more contracts for a vendor
    (and also the items belonging to the contract)

  • The best conditions of selected vendors (see compare prices)

  • Display vendor evaluation
The purchaser can immediately display the SAP BW evaluations for vendors of an item for vendor evaluation. See also the Release information Business Content Enhancements in Enterprise Buyer.
  • Compare prices
When you call this function, Enterprise Buyer highlights the best items with a different color. The purchaser can easily recognize and select the best conditions.
  • Update purchase order value
After the purchaser has selected recommended sources of supply, he/she can have the system recalculate the value of all currently assigned items at the touch of a button.
