Should Purchasing group be assigned to a purchasing organization.

[Former Member]

Do we need to assign purchasing group to a Purchasing organization. If not then why.

Seems like silly question but please help me out conceptually.

Hi,

No need to assign purchase group to purchase organization.

Because if your are assigning purchase group to the perticular purchase organization, purchase group can raise Purchase order to that purchase organization only. He/She can't raise PO for the another organization.

That's why there is no assignment link for Purchase group to Purchase organization in the SPRO - Enterprise structure.

So, Any purchase group can raise PO for the any purchase org.

Hi,

Purchase Group--Is the 0group of people responsible for doing Purchasing activity for an Organization.It is an independant entity.NO assingment is needed for this.It is not a part of Purchasing organization.

Purchasing group is an independent entity and valid for the entire client and it is not a part of organisation structure

Purchasing group and material groups are floating entities,

it is not possible to assign ,

this is the standard SAP rule,
