Bidder creation

Hi All,
I have replicated Vendors from Back end system. Now i want to have Bidders to be created for RFX . What is the process for creating bidders in SRM. we want to go for restricted bid only. So we want to create bidders for the existing vendors.
We dont want to use SUS for this. How to proceed further.
system details SRM 7.0

Hi
User with SRM administartion role should be able to add contact person to the supplier BP(vendor) that is replcaited from ECC backend once the contact person is added you will able to add this supplier as bider in the RFx.
To add the contact person as SRM Admin system will display the list of external bisness partenr select the vendor that you want to make as a bidder and user "Create Contact Person with Reference" to action button to add the contact pesron, this will enable the supplier to be added as bidder in the RFx.

Bidding functionality in SRM

Hi All,
I have couple of queries on Bidding. To go with Bidding functionality
1. Is SUS is manadatory for Bidding ?
2.How Bidder will give RFX reponse with out SUS?
Abdul Raheem

Hi,
We are on SRM 7.0 only.
we dont need SUS for bidding funcationality.
if we create bidder in SRM with Bidder role, bidder can logon to SRM portal and can perform bidding. Corect me if i am wrong.
In that case for bidder creation do we need to mark Portal bidder flag for that?

Creation of bidder in Statergic souring

My business scenario is linke this
I need to get an RFI and then RFP and then RFQ followed by contract creating in SRM which will have to be distributed to ECC as Scheduling agreement.
1. From Statergic sourcing role if i create a business partner it is creating partner id in SRM. if i treat him as bidder i need to give his user id and password. I guess presently sap is not having the facilit of sending user id and pwd to the partner (who in the case is prospects in Souricng) how this situation can be over come
2.In creating new transtion type it is working fine but the transaction types of folow-on document is not working suppose if i have a transcation type as RFI and i want to have follow on document type called RFP and RFQ. The system should allow me to create RFP and RFQ as subsuquent document if that is the case we shuld have a tab called transacation type as a drop down pleae clarify on this
3. when i try to create new data type in question it is created and not reflecting in further action. I guess the data type is pointing to difernt table than that of the actual one

Hi all,
Thanks for the quick response. My question was slightly different.
I am very well aware of the fact that the Bidder/Vendors created in SRM has to be linked to the Org structure, and also that we need to create Contact persons for them.
Basically when we can create Bidders/vendors and also their corresponding contact persons in 'Manage Business Partner' transaction, which would create a 'Bidder Master data' with a bidder number and a 'business partner master data' with a bp number( If I am right, CP creation and SU01 User linking will be automatically taken care of ).
Now my question was that, can I go and create a business partner with transaction BP, linking him to Org structure and also to a user id, and make the BP work fine in Bidding.
As Disha suggested, can I just create a BP, CP for the BP and a SU01 user for the BP alone? Will that alone be sufficient?
If yes, then after creating the BP, how do I create a CP for the BP and link the User to the BP?
Thanks,
Steve

Classic PO Creation with Bidder added items

Dear Experts,
We are using SRM Bid Decoupled scenario. The Bidder logins to SUS system and responds to RFx. I have maintained the product category
in the SUS system.
Consider a scenario, A RFx respondent will login to SUS --> access RFx--> Create Response --> Add few item (Item type : Material) in the RFx response, wit mentioning only Product category, UOM, quantity and price.
When such RFx response is being awarded with PO, the Classic PO is failing in the ECC with error "Enter Material or account assignment details"
Is this the standard feature in Classic Bid Decoupled Scenario? Is there a way to avoid this?
Thanks,
Krishna

Hi krishna,
I think same product category should exist in ERP system also.
Please see the note 1476447
The following information should be considered, if you are planning to use 'Add items from catalog ' functionality in RFx/RFx response :
1. When bidder selects items from MDM catalog in an RFx response, delivery date will be taken as current date. The delivery date is not visible and cannot be changed.
2. Items are not added when bidder tries to add items of product categories from different logical systems in an RFx response.
3. An error message is displayed when purchaser adds items of product categories from different logical systems in an RFx but items are added. Purchaser can correct the items to ensure that only items from one logical system are in a hierarchy.
4. Bidder cannot add an item with blank product category in RFx response.
The following checks are made in RFx/RFx response to ensure correct data entry:
1. RFx/RFx response shall contain items with product categories from one logical system only within a hierarchy.
2. In MM-SRV hierarchy, only backend ERP product categories are allowed.
Best regards,
Rohit

Adding prefix 'E' to BP Number of Role 'Employee' while creation

Hi,
I have a requirement wherein I have to add prefix 'E' to the BP Number of Employee role while creation. For this I am using a method 'CHANGE_BEFORE_UPDATE' of BADI 'PARTNER_UPDATE'. I am pasting the code below. While debugging, I am checking the value in internal table 'lt_but000_new' and I can see that prefix 'E' is getting added in BP Partner Number. But, the same is not happening when it is getting saved. Can anyone suggest me what should I do to achieve this functionality.

Hi,
You can do this particular scenario in SPRO settings itself.
Only thing is you need to check in the SPRO settings in number ranges as well as groupings that you define as external. (Tick the check box present there).
Number assignment: The business partner number range object is BU_PARTNER. Generally, there are three types of number assignment when business partners are created from the R/3 system.
01 = This is the internal interval of BU_PARTNER.
02 = External number assignment, the system uses the number from a specific internal interval of the object.
03 = The number is transferred from HR and a prefix is added. In this case, a specific external interval, which must be defined as XX00000000 (up to XX99999999), is used (where XX denotes any two letters).
Any one of the three intervals can be set up for HR integration.
You can use 02, so that when a business partner is created from employee data, the partner number will be identical to the employee. The value of this interval will equal that of the employee number range interval in R/3.
Also, not all the business partners will be employees from R/3, there would likely to be external partners of various types under various roles other than Employee (for e.g. u2013 Vendor, Bidder, Sold-To, Ship-To etc). These business partners would be present only in the CRM system, and not in the R/3 system. Thus, we require an internal interval as well to create these business partners on the fly.
And then this is the exact definition for External number grouping.
It means that this external grouping is used as the standard grouping.
The BDT selects this standard grouping if a business partner number was assigned to a business partner when the latter was created, but not a grouping.
Hope your problem is resolved with this.

Creation of Bidders / Vendors with BP

Hi all,
Some Basic questions. The creation of Bidders/Vendors in SRM will create a BP and links the Bidder/Vendor to the Vendor Org structure.
Can we create just a BP alone for a Bidder/Vendor in SRM, maintain him and make him participate in bidding, without any data as a Bidder/Vendor in Manager Business Partner data?? If so how??
Thanks,
Steve

Automatic grouping and creation of a bid invitation

Hello everyone,
we tried the automatic creation of a bid invitation in the case of items without assigned source of supply with report BBP_SC_TRANSFER_GROUPED.
We get the correct errors in the report log of missing start date and end date of the bid and missing the bidder, because I never entered the information. The system doesn't give me a chance to enter the information. It is automatic.
So what is this automatic creation of a bid invitation with report BBP_SC_TRANSFER_GROUPED for?
Where is my mistake?
Thank you in advance.

PO creation from Accepted bid

Hi All
We are on SRM 7.0 classic scenario.
Trying to create a local PO from an accepted bid in Plan driven scenario
1) Is there a way to alter the quantity in the PO, or create partial PO's from 2 or more accepted bids.
I didn't see any way to do this as the PO is instantaneously triggered & no option to change
2) The scales and Pricing conditions entered by the supplier in the bid , are not transferred to the PO?
Only the final Price calculated , based on the conditions is transferred? Is there a way to transfer the conditions and scales too?
3) The bidder can enter the validity dates in the Price conditions. However what is the effect of those? If the buyer tries to create a PO from the accepted bid, beyond the validity date, is there a hard stop error?
Is there any other place at Header level, where the bidder can specify the validity date for the bid, except the conditions?
Thanks
Kedar

Bidder language

Hi All,
The process looks like this:
1. create bid invitation
2. place the bid
3. create PO in backend
I work on a BADI for PO creation in backend and I want to change PO language to match the bidder language. Does anybody know how to find out the bidder language? It's not in the structures passed to the BADI and I also was not able to find a table or suitable f. module.
I will reward with points usefull replies.
kind regards,
Robert

Hi
You can find the timezones (languages) of the Business Partners in the ADRC table, field TIMEZONE. I think this time zone is dependent on the country to which vendor is assigned. You can set the timezones in Tx STZBC._
Have you tried transaction - SU3 for the users of Bidders who are logging in on SRM server?
In SU3 transaction ->defaults you can see the personal time zone of the users.
Hope this will definitely help. Do let me know.

Access Bidder Tab Details when PUBLISH button is clicked

Hi All,
I've few requirements to enhance the functionality of PUBLISH button in Rfx Creation.
One fo them is to trigger notification mails to all bidders when RFx is re-PUBLISHed by clicking PUBLISH button.
I need to fetch all the bidder list from Bidder Tab whenever PUBLISH is clicked.
Need to know where / which method has all these details so that I can enhance it.
I know that PUBLISH is in the toolbar for FPM_OIF_COMPONENT.
View - CNR_VIEW
RFx Bidder tab details will get from the component /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_BIDDER.
I want to access the bidders when PUBLISH button is clicked.
I want to which method is executed when PUBLISH button is clicked.
Tried with CL_ABAP_DEBUGGER and CL_WDR_ACTION but not getting the ecaxt component which is calling.
Is there any other way to debug?
Thanks in Advance
Rgrds,
Sravan

A bit late, but method /SAPSRM/IF_FPM_OVRIDE_EVT_OIF~OVERRIDE_EVENT_OIF from /SAPSRM/CL_FPM_OVRIDE_OIF is extremely useful trying to debug where the info comes from.
Basically, there are several mappers classes that access to pdo layer somehow. It is always the same process more or less, but you have to know which classes are involved.
You can usually get a class that is accesible from your wd component. If no BAdIs or no other way of doing some z modification, it is always posible to directly enhance such class...
Hope this helps

SRM - Multiple PO Creation during "Processing Bid" (Buyer)

Hi There,
Can anyone tell which BADI can be used to group multiple PO to a single PO in following scenario.
The objective is to group all line items within the same bid to create a single PO.
Scenario:
-     Requisitioner create a special request for a product category with Auto
Creation of Bid Invitation.
-     After the bid invitation is published, the bidder/ vendor add more line
items in the bid.
-     The buyer accepts the bid and generates PO.
-     The systems generate two PO. One PO covers the original items from the
requisitioner. The second PO covers the additional items that were
added by the bidder.
We need BADI to group "Created Multiple POs" while processing BID (Buyer Side).
Regards,
Rakesh B Bhagat.

Hi,
Try the BADI "BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI" and method "BBP_BID_CHANGE".
