2637799 - Supplier Default From Catalogs While Creating Shopping Carts

Symptom

You are creating new shopping cart & select the products using catalogs. You transfer the items from catalog and system defaults the supplier information automatically in to the shopping cart

Environment

1802

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Home work center
  2. Go to Self-Services & select Self-Services Overview
  3. Select the link Go Shopping (Advanced) under Shopping
  4. Enter the Requester details and select Next to choose products from catalogs
  5. Select the relevant Catalog and select the items
  6. Select Transfer Selected Items and navigate to Edit Shopping Cart step
  7. Here you can see that Supplier and Preferred Supplier details are filled

Cause

You have maintained the supplier details in the Define Catalog Defaults screen under Product Portfolio work center and hence system defaults the supplier information

  1. You can go to Product Portfolio work center
  2. Go to Common Tasks view
  3. Select Define Catalog Defaults

Resolution

For each catalog, you can define a supplier and a product category to be used in your business documents, if no such data is provided by the catalog. If the Catalog field is left blank, it acts like a wildcard. The system always uses the first matching entry that it finds, so ensure that the row with the wildcard is the last entry in the list. You can remove the supplier details, in case if you do not want system to default the supplier
