Summary :
When creating a purchase requisition in SAP with item category 'D' for services and activating automatic source determination, the R/3 standard system does not propose automatically a supply source, unlike for material requisitions, due to performance concerns. Users can manually assign a source by navigating through 'Edit' --> 'Assign supply source' to access a proposal list. This function is not part of the automated process in SAP’s standard operations.

Key words :
