SAP MM - Request for Quotation
Vendor selection is an important process in the procurement cycle. Once
requirements are gathered, we start looking for possible suppliers who can fulfill the requirements at the best possible price. So, a request is made to the vendors to submit their quotations indicating the price of the material along with their terms and conditions. This request is known as the request for quotation (RFQ). Listed below are the key points to note about a request for quotation −
Request for quotation is a form of invitation that is sent to the vendors
to submit a quotation indicating their pricing and terms and conditions. It contains details about goods or services, quantity, date of delivery, and date of bid on which it is to be submitted. Quotation is a reply by a vendor in response to a request for quotation.
An RFQ can be created by the following two ways −
