vendor not showing in purchase requisition for catalog items

Hi all,

I am facing an issue in vendor selection.

I created a purchase requisition and added both catalog and non-catalog items.

Vendor id is shown in the drop-down for the non-catalog items but it is showing an empty drop-down for catalog items.

I have added the products and all vendors to the procurement category hierarchy.

we don't have any trade agreements and we don't have any purchase agreements too.

Next, I add the vendors to the item master form

I can add the vendor before releasing it to a purchase order. But is there a possibility for the vendor to be shown for catalog items?

Am I missing any setup?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Banu,

It will show the primary vendor setup for the item in the lookup. Please go the Released product details form and setup the primary vendor -

Hi BanuReddy,

I believe that is basically Primary vendor ID that appears in PR lines not Approved vendors that you selected as per your screen shot.

Please Check the following setups:

1. Check (Product information management > Products > Released products > Go into Details > Purchase fast tab > Administration Section > Vendor field)? >>> that is Primary Vendor

2. Did you activated Category policy rule from (Procurement and sourcing > Setup > Policies > Purchasing policies) ?

3.You also might need to check the vendors that assigned to the selected category (Accounts payable > Vendors >All vendors > General tab on the Action pane > Setup > Categories)

Sorry for the late response Junaid Idress and Gunjan. Thanks for taking the time and giving me a response.

I tried by setting the primary vendor on the Released product form. Now it is showing the primary vendor but it is not displaying all the vendors. Is there any change to display all vendors on the purchase requisition form?

Idress please find my answers to your questions,

Please Check the following setups:

1. Check (Product information management > Products > Released products > Go into Details > Purchase fast tab > Administration Section > Vendor field)? >>> that is Primary Vendor - I did this setup and it worked. But it is showing only one vendor. Is there any possibility to display all vendors?

2. Did you activated the Category policy rule from (Procurement and sourcing > Setup > Policies > Purchasing policies) ? Yes our category policy rule is activated for the procurement categories.

3.You also might need to check the vendors assigned to the selected category (Accounts payable > Vendors >All vendors > General tab on the Action pane > Setup > Categories) All the vendor account are mapped to the Inventory item procurement categories.

As OOB functionality, It will only show primary vendor in PR line because that actually used while converting PR to PO or RFQ.

Hi

Anyone aware of a common business standard why MS did not allow Approved vendors for catalog items similar to the procurement categories?

We have a request to modify this so users can select approved vendors too, not only the default vendor.

Thanks!
