Symptom
- In the "Manage RFQs", when creating an RFQ and selecting suppliers, the bidder proposals selection popup currently provides filters such as Supplier, Purchasing Organization, Name, Phone/Mobile, Email, and Country/Region.
- There is no option to filter suppliers based on Purchasing Group.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the "Manage RFQs" app.
- Create a new RFQ.
- Select suppliers in the bidder selection popup.
- Observe that the available filters include Supplier, Purchasing Organization, Name, Phone/Mobile, Email, and Country/Region.
- Note that there is no option to filter suppliers based on Purchasing Group.
Cause
- This is standard system behavior.
- The bidder selection search help in the Manage RFQ app does not currently include Purchasing Group as a filter criterion.
- Supplier search is limited to general supplier master data fields and purchasing organization, but not purchasing group.
Resolution
- Add bidders manually by typing the supplier names directly into the supplier field or by selecting the supplier from the generic search help.
- Use the "Get Bidder Proposals" button to check whether there are any suppliers for the selected materials and the selected purchasing organization. The system proposes a list of suppliers that have delivered the required materials or services for the selected purchasing organization in the past.
