Hi Chaitu,

source list record (MM-PUR)

Purchasing (MM-PUR)

A list of available sources of supply for a material, indicating the periods during which procurement from such sources is possible.

Every source of supply is stored in a source list record, together with its validity period.

The source list record uniquely identifies the source of supply, that is, in the SAP system, a vendor, an internal plant, or an outline agreement item, and facilitates determination of the applicable source for a purchase requisition at a certain time.

You define source list requirements at plant level. If a source list requirement exists, you must maintain the source list for each material before you can order it.

The source list serves:

To define a source of supply as "fixed". Such sources count as preferred sources over a certain period of time. For example, the fixed vendor XXXX for material 100XX is ASA Company for the first quarter and BSB Co. for the second quarter of the year.

Select the plants for which you wish to specify a source list requirement

You use the source list to determine the valid source of supply at a certain point in time.

The source list contains all the sources of supply defined for a material and the periods during which procurement from these sources is possible

Following T/Code activities in Material Management module.

Display source list - ME03

Display changes to source list - ME04

Analyze source list - ME06

Reorganize source list - ME07

you make the system settings that are necessary for purchasing operations carried out using source lists.

Source list requirement for materials, It may be necessary to include possible vendors of a material in the source list before the material can be ordered.

The Source list requirement field in the purchasing data of the material master record indicates whether a source list requirement exists for a material.

Here you can see the plants for which a source list requirement exists.
