SRM 7.0 Call offs against Central contracts

Hello,
We are implementing Central contracts in extended classic scenario.We found that when call offs are done in srm by creating a PO in SRM with central contract as Source of supply, the Central contract fields in PO Line item does not get populated when the PO is transferred to ECC.Nor does the Release value get updated against the Backend contract (as seen in ME33K) though the release value is getting in SRM Central Contract document.This makes the release values in ECC Contract document out of sync with the value in SRM contract document.
Has any one faced this issue? Is this because of a missed setting or Is this a bug or is this the way it works?
Thanks
RamanAK.

Hi
give more details of the CCTR contract USAGE in the existing landscape
i could remember the PCTR behaviors in the ECS mode..
Actually contract information will not be transfered in the PO line when replicate to ECC since this contract is local.
the release values are available only in SRM front end ( total value of contract as well as each line of contract vs PO released).
Did you distribute the contract to backend system as well ?
so now your contract is available for both system
i.e ECS - shopping cart - SRM
and ECC purchase request as well - ECC
Are you enjoying the contract in the both systems?
Earlier GOA release values are updated in SRM via BLAREL idoc technology
but now adays in CCTR interfaces
PurchaseorderErpcontractReleaseNotificationOut - ECC
PurchaseorderErpcontractReleaseNotificationin - SRM
The release value synchronisation continous challenges to the BUYER .
So please clarify with SAP how SRM PO release value and ECC PO release value sync in the ECC purchasing contract.
dOUBLE CHECK
PurchaseorderErpcontractReleaseNotificationOut - ECC
PurchaseorderErpcontractReleaseNotificationin - SRM

Double Discount against central contract call off PO

Hi Experts,
We are having SRM 7 EHP 2, ECC 6 EHP 5.
Central contracts are created in SRM & distributed to ECC.
When Shopping cart is created referring a contract item {with discount of 20%
(01RP) on price 300 $ (01CT)}.
The followon document PO created in ECC is showing a price 240 $ (PB00) with
discount of 20% (RA00), & the net price as 192 $.
(i.e discount is applied twice).
Can anyone enlighten me on this?

Service based revenue recognition (u0091Bu0092) contract with call off

I am trying to understand Revenue Recognition. I have come across the above term." Contract with call off"
Can anyone tell me what exactly this means.

Dear sap
The contract consists of items defining the individual materials, material groups, or services with prices and in many cases quantities.
An item is assigned to an item category, which defines the type of procurement (e.g. item category K for consignment, or L for subcontracting).
An item of the procurement type "external service" contains a set of service specifications. Such specifications may be hierarchically structured. The summary view of such a hierarchical structure is termed an "outline", and the individual levels of the hierarchy are referred to as "outline levels". Quantities are specified in service lines. Services can be released (<i>ordered, or called off against the contract</i>) at item level or at the level of the service line.

SRM, MDM, ECC integration for central contract management.

Hi there,
I am questioned by a client with respect to the possibility of the following scenario -
1. There are several SAP back end systems in place.
2. SRM 7.0 will be implemented as single sourcing system.
3. The SAP back end systems carry different material master codes for the same material and this will remain the same and no cleaning effort to have a unique code across all systems is going to be done.
4. If we use MDM in the mix - will it be possible for the SRM system to act as a central contracting solution and create a central contract with the unique material code in MDM.
5. On distribution of this contract across to individual SAP back end system the back end should map the MDM code to correct material code in that respective system.
Any insights with respect to if this is possible with some enhancements or not at all possible will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,

Call off fixed quantity if contracts exits where to add in SAP?

Hi All,
Can you please help me on the next one:
We have a MM Quantity Contract for 100.000 PC.
Every time we call off for this contract the call off quantity is 500 PC.
Where can I put these 500 PC in SAP?
Can this be done on Contract level? Or must this be done on material
master?
Best regards,
Eric.
Points awarded!

Hi
When you are creating the release order wrt a contract, you have to enter Quantity manually.Even in the Best practice of SAP in 6.0 version also given the same.
Refer the link
http://help.sap.com/bp_chemv1600/Chem_US/Documentation/Q80_BPP_EN_US.doc#_Toc158443100
Page number 25 and point number 6.
In your case, the call off order qty is same, Please search any exist to pass this value (you can maintain this value in Contract line item details screen.Field Standard release order quantity <b>ABMNG</b>.)

SRM Central Contract

Hi,
We have created successfully Central contracts and distributed to ECC 6.0. I have created Central contract for central purchasing org A as 45xxxxxx and distributed contract for purchasing org B as 54xxxxxx
I have created purchase order for purchasing org B in SRM. Can I use distributed contract for purchasing org B in SRM?
Do I have always go for PO creation for purchasing Org A in SRM?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Ravikumar,
You donot need to distribute back your ECC contract to SRM system.
The concept of central contract is to use one contract to be used across system landscape.
You can assign local purchasing organization as well as backend purchasing organization to a central contract for distribution. For backend purchasing orgs, the system will create individual contracts for the backend porg. Any consumption of backend contract will keep the central contract in sync. For local SRM porg, it will not create separate contract. It can directly use the central contract in SRM.
So, the answer to your question is big yes. However, it will be relevant only if you are working with extended classic scenario. In classic scneario, the local contract will not be populated for consumption.
I hope, it helps you.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Central Contract Distribution - line items creates many contract in the BE

Hi SRM Gurus,
We are in SRM 7 ECC 6 Ehp 4 PPS. Ext Classic.
First of all, CCTR - Central Contract can't be distributed as per SAP for PPS impl.
But we have a workaround.
We made snote 1354971 read with 1423994 implemented. Made the process work.
Means Assign distribution on the item level was enabled and Distribution reached BE.
But when we have multiple line items in the Central Contract, and we assign distribution, it creates one contract per line item in the Backend which is really absurd. Which means if you have 100 line items, its creating 100 contracts. When we do the call-off against this central contract, we have multiple contracts.
Gurus, Can you guys throw some light on this entire issue.
with regards,
Freemind

We are having nearly exactly your scenario and CCTR works fine with 1 distributed contract containing multiple items. Check if all the items are distributed to the same purchasing org and location. If all is the same, debug BBP_PD_CTR_TRANSFER with your SRM contract GUID to see when and how multiple contracts get created in ECC.

Central contract distribution trough IDOC - including new partner

Hi,
I created a partner in SRM for use with a specific central contract that I am distributing the ECC through an IDOC, the contract in backend is configured with this partner as mandatory, but if I process manually the data in the IDOC in ECC, document is not created, message error is that new partner missing.
Any ideas how can I add a partner in this process?
I'm working with SRM 7.0 and ECC 6.0
Regards,
José Luis D.

To trace where your issue might be, it is helpful to find out the following:
1) in table BBP_BACKEND_DEST, get the SYS_TYPE value for your backend system (LOGSYS = your backend system)
2) in table BBP_FUNCTION_MAP, get the function name for OBJECT = BUS2000113 and METHOD = TransferFromData and TYPE = <your value from step 1>
If you are going through IDOC processing, likely the Function would be "B46B_CTR_TRANSFER". In that case, set a session breakpoint in that function module. Then test run FM BBP_PD_CTR_TRANSFER with your contract GUID as input parameter and IV_SAVE_DB = "X". Execute until the breakpoint and start tracing the problem. This should help you identify the source of the error.

Benefits of implementing Central Contracts in SRM 7.

Dear Experts,
Picture the following:
- Classic Scenario.
- One ECC 6 EHP 4 Back end.
I'm currently exploring the benefits of implementing Central Contracts against using only Purchasing Contracts in ECC and replicating them to SRM for use in the Shopping Carts.
So my question is why would you implement central contracts in SRM instead of just replicating these contracts from ECC? What benefits would you get out of having central contracts in place against having only Purchasing Contracts in ECC?
Thanks for your input.

adding to Manju one point .
- Procurement department(PURCHASER) can use web interface to create / manage contracts rather GUI interface and quick contract creation / maintenance
- Approval mechanism simplified with less efforts.
- Different ways to create a contract from SRM
Copy an existing contract
Use an existing template
Upload an external file
Upload a contract from the catalog

1.You can use this business process to access SAP SRM contract features, such as contract hierarchies, discount across contract hierarchies, and grouping logic, when determining source of supply in SAP ERP.
2.You can create a central contract in SAP SRM, and it can then be used as source of supply in both SAP SRM and SAP ERP. Relevant data is sent to SAP ERP for a source of supply determination, and a specific type of contract or scheduling agreement can be created there.
3.While determining a source of supply, you can access central contracts directly.
4.The price is determined in SAP SRM before the SAP ERP purchase order (PO) is sent to the supplier.
5.You can create and change central contracts and renegotiate existing contracts directly with a supplier, or through the creation of an RFx. You can automatically assign a contract as a source of supply, or it can be listed as one of numerous potential source of supply contracts. A strategic purchaser can create a contract whenever they anticipate a long-term relationship with a supplier.
6.Contract management enables purchasers from various parts of the company at different locations to take advantage of the terms of globally-negotiated contracts for specific product categories. You can provide users with specific levels of authorization to contracts, and you can categorize documents as confidential.
6.You can distribute central contracts to release-authorized purchasing organizations, and these organizations can then use them as source of supply in the appropriate SAP ERP system. Hierarchies can be used to organize, structure, display, and search for contracts.
7.If you use SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP BI), you can view various consolidated reports of contract management. For example, you can view aggregated value released against all contracts in a contract hierarchy.

Contract details i.e currency, Payment term are not copied into Call-off

Hi,
We have implemented SRM 4.0 (SP07) with extended classic scenario.
we created a PO through "Process Purchase order" & referred a line item to a contract (in the sense we are creating a call off) however when PO is ordered, system doesn't pick currency, Payment term & incoterm
maintained in contract header level into PO header but instead pick
that data from Vendor master in SRM (BBPMAININT).
Here is what we have maintained in Contract & Vendor master.
Contract No: 4800002324
Contract Currency: Euro
Payment Term: 60 days net
Inco term: CIF
Vendor master details
Vendor no: 106864
Currency: SEK
Payment term:030N
Inco term: DDP
If we perform similar test in R/3 then system behaves according to
standard.System copies currency, payment term & incoterm from contract header into PO header.
If this behaviour is possible in R/3 then why not in SRM ?
Has anybody witness simmilar problem in SRM so far..?
Any help will be awarded with full points..

Hi
Note 970992 - Purchase order currency overwritten by partner dflt currency
The standard functionality is that the vendor master currency supersedes the SC currency as the final PO is generated for the vendor with whom the company is dealing in a particular currency.
Re: Currency USD differs from Purchase order currency EUR. Enter in PO cur
As per the old accounting system the journal books were maintained for every business partners in his currency. These entries comes to the G/L of the company in company's home currency.So it is the standard functionality that the PO will be generated in vendor master currency and not the SC currency.

SRM 7.0 Central Contracts Migration from ECC existing contracts

Hi colleagues
We are facing the implementation of SRM 7.0 in a client who has ECC installed and we have a doubt with contract migration
We are considering using SRM Central Contracts in order to get them replicated on ECC
All the contracts "alive" that exist in ECC should be created on SRM as central Contracts. The problem is that when you create a SRM central contract the system will replicate it to ECC ... in that case we will have the same contract twice on ECC
Does anybody face this situation?
I figure out that if at the moment we are creating SRM central contracts we turn off XI/PI the system would not replicate the contract to ECC but I think it would return an error without creating the contract on SRM... and even if we managed to create the central contracts in SRM without replicating them to ECC we would have the problem that both contracts wouldn´t be linked
We can´t consider the solution to be creating those contracts on SRM as SRM local contracts because we need to follow contract cicle in SRM after migration
Could anybody help me out with these?
Thanks
Regards

Hello,
You can upload contracts from ECC to SRM using report BBP_CONTRACT_INITIAL_UPLOAD in SRM.
If you want take care of document type mappings/ Condition type mappings, use badi BBP_CTR_INIT_UP in SRM.
Thanks,
Sushil.

Purchase Order - Retrieve net price from Central contract (SRM or ECC)

Hi,
I'm doing a test by creating a PO referencing a Central Contract, which is made in SRM. When creating the PO, at this moment the net prices is retrieved from SRM.
Question: Is it possible to retrieve the net price from the copied contract which is in the Local ECC system?
(Customizing in ECC) SPRO -->Integration with Other mySAP.com Components >Supplier Relationship Management>Central Contract-->Price Calculation
The value what is at this moment: SRM Pricing Immediate
Should the value be: 1 SRM Pricing Immediately Only for Hierarchy Contract Item
Regards,
Alexander

Check for existing screen layout name from below settings -
Goto SPRO -> IMG Settings -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Define Document Types
Check for Field selection key against the PO Type.
Then goto below setting -
SPRO -> IMG Settings -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Define screen layout at document level
Select the screen layout / Field selection key in this setting and modify the field selection group Quantity and price. Make Price and price unit as display only as per your requirement.

SRM 701 - Central Contract via XI, no backend ECC contract created

Hi All,
We are trying to implement the SRM Central Contract Management scenario in SRM701 and ECC 604 using XI/PI and we are finding that the XML message is getting generated OK, passed through XI/PI OK and is successfully processed in ECC, however, no backend contract is created. The SRM number range against the ECC contract document is incrementing every time we send a message but no data is getting committed to the tables. I have seen a few threads on here with others having experienced a similar problem, however, I can't anywhere see what the resolution was.
We are pretty sure all the config is correct as we have tried changing the entry in BBP_BACKEND_DEST for SYS_TYPE to ERP_2.0 and passed the data successfully via RFC and IDOC, but we are not having any success when the SYS_TYPE is ERP_4.0 and using XI.
Please can anyone out there help?!
Thanks a lot...

Hi prashant
I never tried service . but you can see this below symptom for you.I extensively worked on Material contracts.
Are you creating contract from Process contract or Via RFQ
Note 1272305 - Total value wrongly calculated in Contract Service lines
Symptom
We create a Service contract in the R/3 Backend from RFQ. During the transfer we calculate the gross price based on the quantity,price and price unit. (ie) The field ESLL-BRTWR is filled with following formula in the idoc processing. ls_e1edc20-BRTWR
= ( is_item-price * is_item-quantity ) / is_item-price_unit.
AS total value of the service lines is calculated based on the field NETWR which is passed as blank from SRM, during recalculation total value when we change the gross price of one of the service lines in r/3, it is required to fill this field
till PI values are brought correctly till posting to ECC. ?
Note 1123292 - Net Price wrongly calculated in plug-in MAP_BLAORD_SERVICES
my experience in GOA
Note:-
2 set stream of DATA comes from SRM as BLOARD and COND_A ..
Even some times when we reprocess failed IDOCS in BD87 in ECC ( comes contract data from SRM as GOA and failed due to some data validation in ECC). now data issue was fixed at Material master level. and
if we forget to reprocess COND_A - BLOARD creates a successfull GOA but net price shows as ZERO for each material and when you post the COND_A data and correct price will be updated in ECC contract. so kindly check price data reaches or not not or price calculation failed in ECC.

Help with contract or call off orders.

Hi,
At current we are very light users of SAP on the purchasing side. We use purchase requisitions with a bespoke workflow which are then transferred into purchase orders and emailed out.
We are looking at implementing contract or call off orders for services we purchase, eg support that gets invoiced once a month. We can then enter the invoice against one of these orders.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of what the best solution to use would be and how to go about setting them up.
Thanks

Hi,
You can use a framework order to execute that process, as long as you know how you want to spend in a financial year and there will be no need to created goods receipt , framework orders only work with Framework Order and Invoices for payment.
Thanks
Silas
