Example Suppose a requirement for item A has been identified. Item A belongs to item group B and cluster C. ERP LN searches the applicable sourcing strategy as follows: If a sourcing strategy has been defined for item A, ERP LN will use that sourcing strategy. If no sourcing has been defined for item A, ERP LN uses the sourcing strategy for item group B. If no sourcing strategy has been defined for item A or item group B, ERP LN uses the sourcing strategy for cluster C. The same process applies to supply strategies.
