In this IMG activity, you define which data sources should be used to determine the product proposal, in other words, where should the materials in the product proposal come from.
You can determine the product proposal from the following data sources:
Order history The system evaluates all the sales documents belonging to the "order" category and copies all the materials contained in these document types, together with their requested delivery quantities, to the product proposal. When you define the product proposal procedure, you can determine whether each actual order quantity should appear in the quantity field, or whether it should be compressed (for example, per day, per week or per month).
Listed materials The system checks whether a valid listing exists for the customer. If so, it copies all the listed materials to the product proposal.
Excluded materials The system checks whether any of the materials it has determined have been excluded for the customer. This guarantees that the product proposal only contains materials that the customer is allowed to buy.
Item proposal The system determines all the materials from the item proposal and copies them to the product proposal. You can use a parameter in the access sequence to transfer a certain item proposal to the function module that determines the product proposal. If you do not specify an item proposal in the function module, the system determines it from the relevant customer master record.
Customer-material info records The system determines all the customer-material info records for the customer and copies all the materials contained in them to the product proposal.
Customer-specific data sources If you want to access data sources that are not defined in the standard system, you must develop your own function module for the data access, maintain it in the table of origin, and save it in the access sequence in the product proposal procedure.
The origin key is displayed in the sales order so that you can find out at any time in the sales document where the proposed materials come from.
Note: The system can determine the same material from different data sources for the product proposal. For example: You determine that the materials in the product proposal come from the order history and the material listing. The same material appears in both sources. In the sales document, the system therefore displays the first source in which it determined the material. You determine the sequence in which the system accesses the data sources in the access sequence for the product proposal procedure.
