  4. E) In practice, one should not setup the Purchasing Group associated with a Individual (SAP User), because buyers cannot be expected to assume a permanent role in an Organization (they can be promoted, transferred, retire, or even resign). In addition, as at ECC6.0 EhP5, it is not possible yet in the User Master to assign to a Purchasing Group.
