Why purchase order buyer group would be the one who firm the planned purchase order

Hi Sir,
 
I have a question. Normally, we will maintain the buyer group information in item or vendor or purchase agreement. So once if MRP run and generate a new planned purchase order. The 'buyer group' would be there, I mean inherit following priority. 
 
But, I meet one case, when people A to firm planned purchase order which buyer group is B, the generated purchase order buyer group would be A instead of B. 
That's confused. The buyer group is already B in planned purchase order, why it would be changed and be A during the firming, I cannot find any where to set the priority. 
And I also try to remove the browse cookies and user usage data, it doesn't help. 
 
Do you know what's the issue and how to fix it. Thanks.

    No, only for the related employee.

    Hello Wangwang Dui,
     
    I think a 'People A' has been assigned to a specific buyer group which overrules the item, vendor or purchase agreement buyer group setting. 
     
    Could you check the assigned buyer group of 'People A'? 
     
     
     
    Best regards,
