A collective number is required in transaction ME41 for almost every business. While creating a request for
quotation (RFQ), you have to add the collective number manually. You can get multiple quotations against one
purchase request (PR) from different vendors. You can use this collective number to collect all quotations against
one PR or against one material.
For one example, say a company wants to purchase a laptop. First, it creates a PR for this laptop using transaction
ME51N. Then it creates an RFQ for vendors with reference to the created PR using transaction ME41. If the
company sends the RFQ to 10 vendors, then it has to create 10 RFQ documents. When it gets a quotation from all
vendors, it needs a common ID for the quotations so it can compare them and determine the lowest price. In this
case, it can use the collective number (stored in the Coll. No. field) to retrieve and then compare these prices. By
default, the user has to enter this collective number manually, which is time consuming and allows for error if the
user enters a number incorrectly.
