Are you using Sourcing Rules and Approved Supplier List with Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) and it seems like Ranking is not working correctly?

For example: 

  • The Sourcing Rule being used, has effective dates from 01-APR to 31-MAR for 2013, 2014 and 2015.
  • One BPA is defined for Supplier A, which was originally set to Rank 1 with 100% allocation.
  • A new BPA was created for the same item and with same effective dates as the current BPA.
  • The BPA is for a different Supplier.
  • When Generate Sourcing Rules is run it adds the new BPA/Supplier to the Sourcing rule, but its added as Rank 1, with the old rule changed to Rank 2.
