SAP Message WV279 - External vendor &1 is not a permitted source of supply

Diagnosis
The source of supply check has found that external vendor &V1& is not avalid source of supply.
The current source of supply key "&V3" (external supply before internalsupply) first checks the the external vendor entered. If this vendor isnot valid, the source of supply determination function searches forinternal vendors. External vendor &V4& was found using this method,however.

System Response
No price can be calculated for material &V2&.

Procedure
If desired, repeat the calculation with vendor &V4&.
Alternatively, check the settings that are relevant for determining thesource of supply, such as the source of supply key, purchasing inforecords if using external procurement, or supplying sites if usinginternal procurement, and so on.
