3350606 - "RFQ for Contract" is displayed as a default option under the RFQ type field

Symptom

"RFQ for Contract" is defaulted in the RFQ types when new RFQ is created, even though contract is not scoped in business configuration work center.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Sourcing and Contracting work center
  2. Select New Request for Quotation
  3. Select view all
  4. Under General Information->RFQ Process > RFQ type > system defaults to RFQ for Contract.
    You have to manually select "RFQ for Purchase Order" from drop down if you do not want RFQ for contract.

Cause

Default RFQ type drop down logic is maintained in code level to display RFQ for contracts.
So, whether you scope this option or not , it will not impact the RFQ type drop down in this RFQ screen and will not remove "RFQ for contracts" from drop down while creating new RFQ document.
It is not possible to change existing standard logic at the moment. 
 

Resolution

As of now, you need to select the  "RFQ for Purchase Order" option manually from the dropdown if you do not want "RFQ for Contract".
