3360455 - MTO reference number is taken from the sales quotation instead of sales order

When a MTO process is created with a sales quotation, the sales quotation number instead of the sales order number is used as reference in the planned order.

This is caused by system configuration. 

This behaviour is controlled by the requirement type. Currently the Requirement Type is determined using the Material Master Strategy (MRP 3 Tab) first which is currently B6 for the Demo Material FG228 and will result in Requirement Type BB6. See Quotation Procurement Tab below:

In order to have the sales order as the referenced document for the planned order, this needs to be set/determined to S46. For this the configuration activity "Determine Requirement Type by Item Category and MRP Type (ID: 105120) can be adjusted:

The current blank standard content for Src evaluates to 0 which means the Material master strategy is considered first. By setting it to 1 - Item Category and MRP Type the underlying table of the configuration activity is taken for the Requirement Type determination and evaluates to S46.

With this the Planned Order should refer to the sales order it is created for.
