Hi
You can refer the installation guide available on https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/support on how to install and set up optimization functionality.
You can also refer to the training guides provided with SAP e Sourcing solution to learn more about setting up global and line item rules to create optimization scenario.

SRM Bidding Engine and Sourcing Cockpit
Hi All,
can the SRM Bidding Engine be linked to the sourcing cockpit when using the classic scenario?
What I want to be able to do is to create an RFX from a shopping cart in the sourcing cockpit. We use the classic sceanrio currently on SRM 4.
Cheers
ChrisHi Chris,
yes, the bidding and auction functionality is directly connected to the Sourcing Cockpit in Classic Scenario. That is standard. In order to be able to create a classic PO from Bidding / Auction, all you need is a shopping cart, you describe you have.

Grouping of requirements into Bid Invitation from sourcing cockpit.
Hi ,
We are using Plan driven procurement ,bidding in ECS.Our requirement is as follows, we have multiple requirements(External requirements) transfered from R/3 with same material and same delivery date to same delivery place, we need to create one bid invitation line for all the requirements.
In the standard system it is creating one bid invitation, but it has multiple lines on the bid invitation, one line for each of the external requirement.
Is there any way to group the requirements into one line in bid invitation.
Thanks in Advance.

Procurement Coordinator received Authorization Error when creating Bid Inv
Hi All,
In SRM I have an issue Please help me in solving this. Please see below
Procurement Coordinator received Authorization Error when creating Bid Invitation from Sourcing Cockpit. Message states u201CMissing Transaction BBP_BID_EXTSOu201D; however Bid # is still created. User requests that Authorization issue is resolved and Bid # appear for Procurement Coordinators. This problem does not happen for Commodity ManagersHi
Please do the following steps.
When you are using the Internal ITS,you need not run the report W3_PUBLISH_SERVICES.(only SIAC_PUBLISH_ALL_INT )
ALso pls check the foll:
-->activate the services through SICF tcode.
> Go to SICF transaction and activate the whole tree under the node Deafult host>sap>bc>gui>sap>its.
>Also maintain the settings in SE80>utilities>settings>internet transactuon server-->test service/Publish.
Table TWPURLSVR should have entries for the / SRM server line as well as gui and web server.
Could you please review again the following steps ?
Did you check that ICM was working correctly (TA SMICM) ?
1-Activate the necessary ICF services
With transaction SICF and locate the
services by path
/sap/public/bc/its/mimes
/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui
2- Publish the IAC Services
With Transaction SE80 locate from
the menu Utilities -> Settings ->
Internet Transaction Server (Tab) ->
Publish (Tab) and set On Selected
Site = INTERNAL.
3- Locate the Internet Services SYSTEM and WEBGUI.
Publish these services with the Context
Menu -> Publish -> Complete Service
4- Browse to http://<server>:<icmport>/sap/bc/gui/
sap/its/webgui/! and login to the
webgui.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

Hello,
I'm working in RSA1 on my development BI system (BID) building a source system connection to our R/3 (ECC 5.0) (DEV) backend system. I've got the logical systems defined and assigned, clients opened, and users built.
Here's the issue:
When I build the connection to the backend ECC 5.0 system, it's coming up as a BIW system (see Message Test below - that' from the log)
My question is - is it seeing it as a BW System, versus an R/3 System, because in ECC 5.0 BIW is integrated / delivered within ECC 5.0?

So, we intend to evaluate a few 'technical' proposals from various System Integrators, for an Oracle EBSuite including Hyperion, ERP solution.
On the high level, the proposal comprises of the following details;
1. Proposed solution, includinh implementation modules, project phasing, CM and SI's role in it.
2. Implementation details - SI scope again for both Oracle eBS and hyperion and deliverables.
3. Acceptance criteria, Project Plan and timescale and CSFs.

Capture of bids for procurement and workflow in SRM
Dear Gurus,
I am new to SAP. I would like to ask which functionality in SRM can do the following:
1. Capture bids for procurement
2. Use workflow to automate the evaluation and approval of the bids received (Matching bid price against budgeted cost)
3. Use workflow to support the automatic routing of all submissions and evaluations for approvals in respect of u201CApproval to Negotiateu201D and u201CApproval to Awardu201D.
4. Segregate bids that meet or are lower than the budgeted cost from those that are in excess, marking the latter in different colour
5. Capture of all data, especially from the lowest bidderHi,

Transaction Data from multiple source systems
Hi BW,
I want to load transaction data from two source systems: SQ1CLNT100 QA and SQ1CLNT200 Training client. into one BW system. What is the best practice, do I need to create another data structure or can I mix the data for QA and training in one data structure and separate them with authorisation?
Please someone should help me out with the best practice on this.
Thanx.Hi Dan,
Do you mean use 0LOGSYS as authorisation relevant InfoObject?
Dont you think that if I copy bid from one source system and use it in another, the two bids will have the same GUID? if that is possible, then I may be faced with the problem of data override. Please advice further.

Recommended folder for source code?
Hi,
I upgraded to OSX Lion - which was only possible after erasing everything on my system. Since I now start up with with a 'clean' account, I wanted to take the opportunity to optimize my source code organisation.
Since my sources are really checked out from an online repository, I don't think I should keep them in the Documents folder but rather in some other folder, like Users/guy/Development. Does this make sense? Any thoughts or experiences from other developers here?
Thanks
GuySorry, it doesn't make sense to ask about saving in a local folder when you claim they sit in a remote location...
Whatever the location, as long as it is backed up reliably, you'll be fine. -

Use of SUS with bidding Engine
Dear all,
I want to use the BBPSC18 for request services (external labour). Then I want to use the bidding engine to create bid invitation from sourcing cockpit. From this point I have some questions
- I read it is not necessary to use SUS for this process. In that case what are the possibilities to sent the bid invitation to the supplier and for them to react on it?
- What are the arguments in favor / against the use of SUS?
- Does anyone what time / cost implications there are for the use of SUS?
We are running on SRM 5.0 / ECC 6.0
Kind regards,
Arie RuitenbeekHi,
If you are using request for external labour, then a bid invitation is automatically created as follow on document. You can add service agents in SRM system.
You can have two service prcurement business scenarios in sap srm.
1. service procurement with loose supplier integration
2. service procurement with closed supplier integration
In loose integration, you procure services using supplier catalogs and dont need any SUS. check the below link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm50/helpdata/en/6e/1f311d7d73574c8db7525ffffa9746/frameset.htm
SUS is required if you want self entry of confirmation and invoices for suppliers. This saves time and cost on the part of buying company.

How to find Bidding engine installed.....???
Hi
Got a basic doubt to know on how to find a Bidding engine is installed and licenced by seeing the config in the server.
Is there any config to find this?
Because I can see the links "Create Bid invitation", "Process bids", etc, even without Bidding engine licence.
Please correct me if I am wrong..
Thanks in advance
JagdishChristophe
Thanks a lot for your help.
That means even without a Bidding engine license, one can create Bid invitation but cannot publish it. In that case if any one try to publish the Bid invitation then a mail will not be sent to vendor to respond to the bid.
Am I correct? If not please correct me.
Why I am asking this is, I was asked to check if bidding is installed on a SRM server as they want to check the bidding functionality. After checking, I noticed that someone played with that Dev box and created some Bid Invitations from Sourcing cockpit and all bids are in Held status. But I could not find "Process Bid Invitations" link in Purchaser menu. That could be because of not adjusting the menu for Purchaser role. I did not check in depth.
Also client wants to create Bid invitation manually without SC. For this "Process Bid Invitations" link is necessary through which a manual Bid invitation can be created.So I got a doubt whether Bidding is Licensed. If so what is the indication.
Can you tell me what part of bidding functionality that I cannot perform without Bidding license.
Points are awarded for this thread.
Thanks

What is Pushdown Optimization in informatica
Hey Satish, Adding to Soundarya, you can do Pushdown optimization at source end also. What I've seen the real time projects is Push down optimization is more useful in Re-engineering projects/Performace Tuning projects. That means as the existing logic can be modified to push to Database level which improves much performace. As well as, In the new startup projects also,we can keep all the logic in informatica. But, actually we make it to run on DB using pushdown optimization. Pushdown optimization is 3 types. 1. Source side pushdown optimization2. Target side pushdown optimization3. Full pushdown optimization. However, Few transformations does not support pushdown optimization like Rank, Java, Normalizer,..etc. In this case. we can select either source/target side optimization only. And, That too optimization can be applied only either before/after the pushdown optimization non-allowed transformation. The main disadvantage of pushdown optimization is we can not track the log for the logic which we pushed to database. ThanksNaresh.
You can look into following examples, Satish. https://community.informatica.com/solutions/pushdown_update_strategy_updatehttps://community.informatica.com/solutions/mapping_full_pushdown_optimizationhttps://community.informatica.com/solutions/mapping_partial_pushdown_optimizationhttps://community.informatica.com/solutions/pushdown_router_transformationhttps://community.informatica.com/solutions/pushdown_connected_lkphttps://community.informatica.com/solutions/pushdown_update_ins_upd_delhttps://community.informatica.com/solutions/pushdown_update_strategy_delete

BID INVITATION FIELDS BY DEFAULT
Hi There,
Can anyone tell me how can I set some fields of the BID INVITATION by default? by customizing? With a BADI? is necesary to change the dynpro?
Scenario:
When I create the bid invitation from Sourcing I need to set 'yes' by default to the following fields of Bid Invitacion:
New items by bidder
Show bidder weighting
Bid all line items
Many thanks for your help!!!
Regards,
Sonia RonceroHi,
Many thanks for your answer!!
I have done one part via customazing and it already works!!
But I have another problem, I have a CUF for the field " bid_chg_allowed" that I need to set "yes" by default as well. It is included in the structure bbps_bid_ui_header but I don't know where I can find de CUF. Do you think I can use the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI ?
I have tried with BBP_BID_DET_PROCTYPE and I have modify the dynpro 1200 but it doesn't work.
I'm working in SRM 4.0.
Thanks a lot, regards,
