Is standard functionality "shop with limit" possible in SAP SRM 5.5? Right now it is set to "describe requirement" and is throwing an error because the vendor is not specified.

In SAP SRM 5.0 (SRM Server 5.5), the "shop with limit" functionality is a standard capability. There is really no special configuration required for "shop with limit" as opposed to the "describe requirement". As long as u specify the vendor (if known), acct. assignment (if known), the corresponding cart is created.

Unfortunately, you have not provided the complete error on the Vendor, but I'm assuming it is: "Vendor not intended for purchasing organization". This is usually the case if the Vendor Organization does not have a purchasing organization assigned. Check the BUK attribute for the vendor org in PPOSV_BBP and also make sure the purchasing organization is assigned to the corresponding company code organization unit in PPOSA_BBP.
