Overview
Use this system task to create a request for quotation (RFQ) in SAP without reference to an existing purchasing document. Requests for quotation are created without reference to an existing purchasing document when there is no purchasing document to serve as a basis for the new request for quotation. Using a reference simply avoids needless typing. Any information copied from a reference can be modified.
