Hi all,

Can anyone explain to me the purpose of the source list as in when source list should be in place in the procurement process?

Thanks.

Hello,

Source List is maintained for the combination of Material and Vendor.

A source list specifies the possible sources of supply for a material over a given period of time. It shows the time period in which a material may be ordered from a given vendor or under a certain long-term purchase agreement.

The source list supports the user in answering the question: "Which vendors or internal suppliers can supply a material at a given point in time?" It is also used in the automatic selection of vendors for a material.

With source list, it is possible to block the procurement of material from particular vendor.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Arif Mansuri
