Adding suppliers to the material request (Step 4)
The steps described below are the same in each request type.
You can use the whole FUTURA Smart address book for searching and selecting suppliers. The address book contains as well all suppliers that have been synchronized from your SAP system.
You can search for specific suppliers by using the search field "Search suppliers". Use the column options mentioned below as search criteria:
No. (SAP Vendor Number)
Name (company name)
Address (parts of the address, e.g. street)
E-mail (e-mail address of the company)
You can use the "plus" button on the right side of the list to add suppliers to your request for quotation. The button "Suppliers" displays the number of added suppliers.
You can use the "minus" button to remove suppliers.
By clicking on the "Suppliers" button, you can view a summary of the selected companies. At this point, suppliers can be removed again with the recycle bin button.
