You define source list requirements at plant level. If
a source list requirement exists, you must maintain the source list for each
material before you can order it.
The source list serves:

count as preferred sources over a certain period of time. For example, the fixed
vendor XXXX for material 100XX is ASA Company for the first quarter and BSB Co.
for the second quarter of the year.
