| # Buy-from BP - Quotations (tdpur1506m000) Use this session to: View quotation data by buy-from business partner and RFQ, which is defaulted when a record is inserted in the Request for Quotation - Buy-from BP's (tdpur1505m000) session. You cannot change the data for records with the Created status. View, enter, and maintain the quotation data that is returned in response to the RFQ. After an RFQ is printed for a buy-from business partner, and as a result, its status is set to Printed, you can enter returned quotation data in this session. As a result, the Status is set to Returned. You can link a price book and/or a discount schedule to a quotation. When you copy a quotation with linked price book and/or discount schedule to a contract, you must copy the price book and discount schedule to a new price book and discount schedule that have the origin Purchase Contracts. You can assign RFQ criterions to a returned quotation in the Quotation - Subjective Criterion Scores (tdpur1195m000) session. These criteria are used when you compare quotations in the Quotation - Buy-from BP Ranking Based on Criteria Set (tdpur1806m000) session. Important! If a buy-from business partner's prices and discounts are already present in your data, you do not need to send the RFQ to that buy-from business partner. You can, however, compare the existing prices and discounts with the submitted quotation. To compare existing prices with the prices your buy-from business partner returned to you, answer the question Retrieve default prices and discounts? with Yes. For the existing price and discount origins, refer to: Price Origin Discount Origin After comparing, you can still overwrite the default prices with the returned prices from the buy-from business partner.
