Item is Not coming in MRP wizard

Hi to All,
                  When i am to select an itm in MRP wizard, it is coming. I thing this is the issue with software. Myself and my seniors also tried that but it is not working. For getting support from SAP where i need to process my request.

Hi,
              Before going getting support from SAP try with other options,
                   1. Check whether the item is planned for MRP (item Master - > planning data tab -> planning data option)
                   2. Check whether the item is in valid period.
                   If it is not woking then yu need to follow the following steps
                              If your are a customer,
                                     Initally compliant to your partner, if partner is not providing solution means access the customer portal using S User , access the link Help Request.
                              if you are a partner,
                                      Access the partner portal and access the link Help request.

Changing preferred vendor to fixed vendor in SRM PO- no currency conversion

Hi All,
We are on SRM_SERVER 550, SP11, ECS scenario.
Users create carts where they enter preferred vendor.
After approval we found that the PO's were created only in "Held" Status.
So we did a conversion of the preferred vendor (PF 39) to Fixed vendor (PF 19) during PO creation using BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI- BBP_PO_CHANGE.
We also implemented BBP_GROUP_LOC_PO,GROUP_PO so that all items with same preferred vendor are grouped into a single PO.
We observed that PO is now getting created in ordered status, where the preferred vendor is getting converted to fixed vendor as per our code change. But we also found a problem- that the line item price doesnt get converted to Vendor order currency after the Po is created. For ex: If line item price is 10 GBP and Vendor order currency is EUR, the line item price in the PO shows 10 EUR. The currency conversion fro GBP to EUR does not happen.
This does not happen for catalog items/PO's where the cart comes with a fixed vendor (PF 19).
So there surely seems to be something missing in our code for converting Preferred vendor to fixed vendor which is preventing/not converting the currency as well.
Please find below the code we are using in DOC_CHANGE_BADI for PO, is there any step in this which is causing the currency conversion to be skipped?
CONSTANTS:C_FIXED_VENDOR   TYPE BBP_PDS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT
                       VALUE '00000019',
           C_PREFERRED_VEND TYPE BBP_PDS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT
                       VALUE '00000039'.
   READ TABLE ET_PARTNER INTO LS_PARTNER WITH KEY
                         P_GUID      = IS_HEADER-GUID
                         PARTNER_FCT = C_FIXED_VENDOR.
   IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
   READ TABLE ET_PARTNER INTO LS_PARTNER WITH KEY
                         P_GUID      = IS_HEADER-GUID
                         PARTNER_FCT = C_PREFERRED_VEND.
    IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
      CLEAR IDX.
      IDX = SY-TABIX.
      MOVE C_FIXED_VENDOR TO LS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT.
   MODIFY ET_PARTNER INDEX IDX FROM LS_PARTNER TRANSPORTING PARTNER_FCT.
   ENDIF.
   ENDIF.
Regardas,
Srivatsan

there is nothing in your code which prevents the conversion between the two currencies,
it can be the following reason
1) system as standard is not performing the conversion.
2) conversion factors are not maintained (or) conversion factors are maintained and the expiry date for the conversion factors has passed.

How to change Preferred Vendor to Fixed Vendor in SC - SRM-5.0

SRM Experts,
We are using SRM 5.0, ECC 6.0 and PI-7.0.
We are using classic scenario in SRM. When user selects the vendor with Outline agreement in SOS tab then SC creates PO in backend system because it has Fixed Vendor otherwise SC creates PR in the backend system.
We have a new requirement in SRM to create PO instead of PR in the backend system if Purchasing Org=5xxx and total value of SC is less than USD 5XXX and Vendor is a Preferred Vendor in the SC.
Do I need to use the Check Document BADI to check the total value of the SC and to check whether it is a Preferred Vendor and then in the Change Document BADI, change the value from Preferred Vendor to the Fixed Vendor before SC is saved?
OR someone has any other suggestions on this?
Which BADI is called first Check Document or Change Document before saving the SC?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Atul/Disha,
I sent you my code and problem in detail at your email address.
Here is the requirement for Changing Preferred Vendor to Fixed Vendor. We are on SRM 5.0 and using classic scenario. I am new to SRM world. I also checked the note- 962474 in our system and it has been applied. We upgraded to SRM 5.0 in Oct-07.
1.     My client has customization for sources of supply tab. It shows the vendor information in SOS tab based Product category, Plant and Purchasing group selected in the SC. If SC contains Vendor with Outline agreement then SC creates PO in the backend system. So in Change BADI logic for new enhancement of converting Preferred vendor into Fixed Vendor should not change anything in the SC using Outline agreement.
2.     We have created Custom table-zsrm_fix_vend with fields, purchasing group, company code, currency and total value.
3.     We need to convert the preferred vendor into fixed vendor
    if the SCs 1st line item purchasing group = zsrm_fix_vend-ekorg and
             SCs 1st line item company code = zsrm_fix_vend-bukrs     and
           SCs currency = zsrm_fix_vend-currency                   and
           SCs Total value less than(<)zsrm_fix_vend-totalvalue.
My testing results and problems
1.     When I create a new SC with less value than totalValue from the custom table, change document BADI is changing the preferred vendor into fixed vendor and it is creating PO in the backend system. So this is working as expected.
2.     When I create a new SC with greater value than totalValue from the custom table, change document BADI is NOT changing the preferred vendor into fixed vendor and it is creating PR in the backend system. So this is working as expected.
3.     When I use Outline agreement in the SC, it is creating PO in the backend so change BADI logic is not affecting this existing functionality which is good.
4.     Problem - When I copy a new SC from existing SC with less value than totalValue from the custom table and then changing the amount with the greater value than the custom table, change document BADI is not changing the fixed vendor to the preferred vendor and when I click on sources of supply tab - it is giving me an error Partner Function may not be Changed and it exits me to main shopping cart screen.
5.     Problem - When I copy a new SC from existing SC with greater value than totalValue from the custom table and then changing the amount with the lessser value than the custom table, change document BADI is not changing the preferred vendor to the fixed vendor and when I click on sources of supply tab - it is giving me an error Partner Function may not be Changed and it exits me to main shopping cart screen.
6.     When I copy the SC with Outline Agreement and change the amount it works all the time it is not affected by the change document BADI which is good.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Millions thanks to you!

New Funtional Req-MRP Wizard Option Would Allow For Planning by Warehouse

The MRP Wizard should only generate recommendations for the warehouse(s) selected. This would allow proper planning by warehouse.
My client runs multiple warehouses in single database and manages stock levels by those warehouses. The primary reason for buying Business One was to gain efficiencies in data processing. Having the system create purchase orders allows them to consolidate the purchase process. For MRP to work for them the recommendations must follow the warehouse from which the product was ordered, otherwise they will have to split the database into multiple companies, one for each of their 9 warehouses. Currently the recommendation is going to the default warehouse, but the sale could have been made out of any warehouse.
Now every MRP run has to be reviewed in detail and every sales order that was entered has to be reviewed to insure that the correct warehouse is selected. This is turning what should be a 30 minute job into a 4 hour job, not to mention that the client now has no faith that the data is accurate, since the recommendation could be for a drop ship.
If the MRP wizard would only show recommendations for the selected warehouse then the client could run one warehouse at a time and better manage and validate the information returned in the recommendation report.
A company has 3 warehouse; WH1, WH2, WH3. When in the MRP Wizard selection screen selecting specific warehouses only WH3 is selected. The recommendation report returns recommendations that will generate purchase and production orders for WH3 based only on the demand for sales order rows that contain WH3 for purchased items and the production order warehouse code for manufactured items where WH3 is in the production order header. Demand for component items created by production orders would be for the default warehouse and would only appear when their default warehouse is selected.

Roy,
I'm Agree with you we have the same problems with a lot of clientes and as you said is a simply change in SBO code.
We hope that something can help us

'Preferred Vendor' and 'Vendor' in Purchase Order Partner Overview screen

Hello All,
Please can you provide me with some assistance to the following issue we have on our SRM 5.0 system......here goes.....
In 'Define Sourcing for Product Categories config' , we have set the value to 'Sourcing is never carried out'. Now, when we manually assign a Supplier to the Cart and have it automatically converted to a Purchase Order, the Purchase Order is created but only in Held Status as only the 'Preferred Vendor' in the PO Partner Overview screen is populated with the other 'Vendor' field remaining blank and requiring manual intervention by our users
Please can someone explain how we are able make the system to always have the 'Vendor' field populated, therefore not needing any manual intervention.
Your help would be appreciated,
Thanks
Steve Walsh Jnr

Hi
Implement the following method , in which you will force prefer vendor
to fixed vendor for all applicable sc.
IF_EX_BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI~BBP_SC_change.
You will have to work with partner function 00000039 which is the
prefered vendor to move into the partner function 00000019.
In the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI we provide the business partner data
through the IT_PARTNER interface table. the prefered vendor or desired
vendor has partner type 39, the regular supplier will have partner
type 19. a switch from 39 to 19 should create a po instead of
incomplete po.

Order Recommendations not working until run MRP Wizard?

Hi,
I have created a scenario using the MRP wizard. However, I find that after a new sales order is created, the items do not appear in the "order recommendations" until I re-run the mrp wizard through the scenario that I had already saved.
Is this normal?
Also, in order recommendations screen to create the purchase orders, it shows me all the items with a "create" tick box next to them. Each day we order hundreds of products and the issue for us here is
1. The items are not grouped by supplier
2. There is no select all box
Is it possible to get the items grouped? Ideally would be Supplier which would drill down to the items.
Edited by: Ricky Thomas on Mar 14, 2011 5:00 PM

Hello Ricky - yes, that is normal that you must re-run the MRP wizard if new sales orders are created since you first ran the MRP. Usual system processing...

Preferred Vendors for Product Category

Hi,
We are using SRM 7.0, Classic Scenario.
My client wants a list of preferred suppliers that need to be maintained for a product category. So that whenever the requester selects the product category, he should get the list of preferred vendors for that product category.
Thanks
Ron

Hi,
How about maintaining "Supplier List" ?

MRP Wizard - Source data selection

Currently the MRP Wizard Source Data selection does not allow the selection of a single (or selected) Sales Order (SO).
Enabling such, would allow easy MRP planning around a specific order(s) received. (For instance an order is received for a task that is actually a complete project. Buying (and Production Orders) is done dedicated for this project. (And even stored separatly, by project.)
All sorts of work arounds exist - creating Forecasts from the Sales Order etc.... - which by the way is not very elegantly supported by the objects in the SDK either, so in the end, the missing link is to select the MRP Wizard source by SO.
By extension.... A Sales Order can be easily moved to a Delivery Note, via a Pick List (i.e the item is available off the shelf)
However a Sales Order cannot equally be moved to a Delivery Note via a Production Order (i.e the item has to be made) either via MRP Wizard, or manually. An easy "Copy To" (Production Order) extension would facilitate this process greatly.
Where multiple Production Orders are generated (say via the MRP Wizard) all from (one) Sales Order, can the (current for information only) Sales Order field on teh Production Order also be updated when the Production Order was generated by the MRP Wizard (or SDK for that matter)?
Can this be considered?

Vendor list and preferred vendor

Hi,
We are using classic scenario and currently, all carts are intercepted by the purchasing department so purchase requisitions are manually converted into POs.
We want to implement vendor lists but SRM assigns any vendor chosen from a vendor list as fixed, which means it will convert to a PO once the shopping cart is fully approved.
Is there a BADI I can use to change the vendor from 'Fixed' to 'preferred'. Can BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI be used to do so or does it only works when changing a 'preferred' vendor into a 'fixed' vendor?
Thanks

Hi
Yes... we have done this long back successfully..
The BADI - BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI can be easily used...
Also, you can look for BBP_SOS_BADI...
Do let me know, incase you face any problems.

Shopping Cart Split and Preferred Vendor

Hello,
I am working on SRM 5, in Extended Classic Scenario.
I add a service item in my Shopping Cart by using the describe requirement in transaction BBPSC03, I assign a Preferred Vendor to this item and I duplicate it by using the Copy button.
When I order the Shopping Cart, this gives me 2 Purchase Orders? I don't understand why because the 2 items are identical. Is there something in the customizing which has to be set up? I would like to have only one Purchase Order created if items are identical.
Thanks for your help,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
The preferred vendor is not the assigned vendor. SO the vendor needs to be assigned during the sourcing.
As far as splitting is concerned check whether any BADI is active like BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI where split criteria is maintained.
Please check the related thread and the OSS notes mentioned in it for better understanding of the issue.
Re: SCs split into multiple POs, duplicate POs and PO items in reverse c/ to SC
Hope this makes you more clear and helps in resolving the issue.
