Inforecord price for SRM originated orders - CLASSIC scenario

[siowfong_chen]

Hi! Few months' back, I have posted some questions re the behaviour of the price on the PO when orders are generated out of SRM in a classic scenarioI have just completed testing and ended up with the following results:

1. If I create a shopping cart with material number for direct consumption and have a vendor defaulted from vendor list, the price reflected in the PO is from the inforecord. So, effectively, I could have $1000 on my shopping cart but PO showing $950 as this is the value in the inforecord. The $1000 comes from the material condition record in SRM (extracted via EBP_GET_BACKEND_PRICES).

2. If I create a shopping cart with material number for STOCK and have a vendor defaulted from vendor list, the price reflected in the PO is that maintained on the shopping cart. Is this behaviour correct? Note that in this case, the master PO is in SRM even in a classic scenario and I wonder whether it is because of this that the pricing behaviour is different.

Other observation: For stock purchase, I know that if I have multiple vendors (from vendor list and some from inforecords) and if I picked one of the vendors, the price will be adopted at the point of shopping cart so that the user has a 'confirmed' view of the price and there should be no discrepancies of prices between the shopping cart and the PO.

Can someone please shed some lights as to what should the standard behaviour be?

Cheers!
