Documentation

Definition

Determines the vendor that you want to use for communication with SAP Sourcing.

Use

By defining a vendor for data transfer to SAP Sourcing, you activate the integration between SAP Sourcing and SAP ERP.

Whenever you maintain this vendor in a request for quotation (RFQ) and publish the RFQ, the RFQ is sent to the linked SAP Sourcing system. As a result of sourcing, a request for proposal (RFP), an award, and a master agreement are created in SAP Sourcing.

Dependencies

When creating your partner profiles, maintain this vendor ID as the partner number for message type REQUOTE. From the SAP Easy Access screen, you do this by choosing Tools --> ALE --> ALE Administration --> Runtime Settings --> Partner Profiles.
