Definition

Use
The external vendor entered in the selection screen of the sales price calculation function is used in two ways:
It is used to restrict the material selection, as the selection criteria are compared with the vendor's product palette.
The external vendor is also used for determining the source of supply for a pricing item. The decisive factor in supply source determination is the source of supply key, which is maintained in the Logistics view of the material master data. This key has four settings:
- 1 (external vendor): the system checks whether the external vendor entered is a valid source of supply. If it is not, no calculation is performed for the corresponding material/organizational level and an entry is made in the log for the sales price calculation function.
- 2 (internal vendor): the external vendor entered is not taken into account.
- 3 (external before internal): first, the external vendor entered is checked. If this vendor is not a valid source of supply, the system searches for internal vendors. If an internal vendor is also entered, this is checked.
- 4 (internal before external): first, the system searches for internal vendors. If none is found, the external vendor entered is checked.
Dependencies
If several valid vendors are found, vendors suggested due to the system settings (such as the source of supply key) or entered in the selection screen can be changed interactively in the pricing function.
