Use
Here you define whether the subsequent processes for a purchase requisition are to run in an external purchasing system or in the SAP-MM purchasing. Control of external procurement is dependent on the material group and the purchasing group. A procurement profile is assigned to each combination of of these attributes. When the system finds the combination of material group and purchasing group for an item in a purchase requisition, it assigns the appropriate procurement profile and the subsequent processes run in an external purchasing system. You can override this setting using the customer exit BBPK0001.
Requirements
In order to assign procurement profiles to the combinations of material groups and purchasing groups, you have defined the profiles in the activity Maintain Profiles for External Procurement.
