Hello

AS per my understanding, for automatic source determination, you have to maintain the source list.

Without source list it is not possible for the system to determine the source automatically after the MRP run.

Have look on the document also

Hope this helps

Hello Vinod,

Even if you have only one vendor assigned to that material.. MRP will check the source list, Quota arrangement during MRP

if the source is not fixed for MRP then system will generate the PR / SA without vendor

please refer the below thread for better understanding

Source Determination within ECC system in Purchasing - ERP SCM - SCN Wiki

Hello

As per my understanding this is possible with the info record also but for manual PR only and not for the MRP PR

Please try to mark the source determination tick default for the users(Paramenter ID EVO=01) and try to create the PR.

System should select the vendor automatically if only 1 vendor info record exist against the material.

Also have a look on the document

Purchasing (MM-PUR) - SAP Library

Also you may post your query on SAP ERP - Logistics Materials Management (SAP MM)

hope this helps
