Changing vendor in billing direct to contract

[former_member1094181]

Hello all,

To context, we are planning to implement billing without PO (direct to contract) with the functionality direct posting to contracts. In this scenario, the contracts are created in ERP and replicated to SRM, where the user will be able to create billing documents with reference to contract.

Our challenge is to have a contract with a general vendor, and in the billing moment insert another vendor, the real one.

Do you know how to proceed?

Your help will really be appreciated, thank you in advance.

Greetings.

Is this a SRM or an ERP question?

If I understand correctly, then you enter the invoice in SRM and there you want add another vendor, hence this question should have been asked in the SRM forum

Why can't you have this alternative vendor as partner role in the contract?

Hello,

Thanks for your answer.

You understand it well. Maybe this would be more suitable in SRM forum, but in our implementation scenario it's pretended to create contracts only at ERP level.

The solution you propose is viable in our scenario?

Greetings.

I dont know since I do not know anything about a SRM system.

I know that you can have alternative vendors as partner role in a ERP contract.

And I am not aware of any restriction in distribution.

But I do not know what you can do in a SRM system, this can only be answered by the people who work with SRM, and they are usually active in the SRM space.

I will move this question to SRM for more input.
