Central contract details & link with operational contract

Hi guys,
I want to get all the detail of CENTRAL contarct and the In need to get the corresponding operational contract also...
Please let me know whether there is any F.M. or Class or table where I can get these details.
regards,
Prabhu

Please rephrase your questions
The Contracts are distributed to backend system and Linkages are made betwwen SRM and Backend contracts. once distributed contracts are reached later clean jobs build a linkages between backend business Object contract with SRM contract

Emulation for partner link with async operation and no callback client

In our Composite, we are calling a partner link with operation 'XYZAsync'. It is called in async mode and there is no callback client attached to this call. Hence, it is not possible to create emulation for it ( Create new emulate option is unavailable for the particular operation).
We are facing the following issues:
1. Jdev is unable to generate the sample XML.
2. When we tried to add emulation, the "+ icon" is not high lighted.

Hi again,
i managed to solve the problem:) Totally stupid.. the process variable name was not specified correctly..., but more stupid sounds the error message:))))

Setup Central Contract Management SRM 7.01 with differing release versions

Hello experts,
OSS note 1268821 explains how to configure the central contract management between a SRM 7.0 and an ERP 6.04. So far so good, but how should it be handled if there are differing release versions such as ERP 6.04 and ERP 6.03? I guess that a technical split (xml services/ ALE distribution) is necessary?
Assuming that there are some backends with differing release versions and in some cases with differing master data (not supported by central master data client) would you always go via PI? Independent of release version, technology and master data.
Could you give some further detailed informations how to configure such a scenario? What has to be done to transfer existing contracts from an ERP 6.04 into SRM CM component (migration concept)?
Thanks!!!
KR Thorsten

Hi Thorsten
The minimal ECC version is 6.0 EHP4, Central Contracts require certain business functions in ECC to be activated and as these are included within ECC EHP4 you won't have these available in lower version. Therefore you won't be able to operate central contracts in such an ECC system.
You would either have to go with patching these systems or go with GOA's for these systems.
Operating central contracts via PI or SOA i believe provide almost similar functionality. SOA however requires an SRM EHP1 system and ECC EHP5 back-end to operate whilst central contracts configured via PI can be operated onwards from an SRM 7.0 and EHP4 system.
I can't help you on your migration issue, maybe someone else can.
Kind regards,
Tim

ERP release for Central Contract Management with SRM 7.0 EhP 1

Hi all,
i would like to have clarification with ERP and SRM release combinations regarding SRM 7.0 EhP1.
Indeed, the "Software Component Matrix for SAP SRM 7.0 EHP1", for Operational Contract Management, tells 'EHP 5 for SAP ERP 6.0 required'.
Moreover, in RKT dealing with SRM EhP1 delta overview, ERP 6.0 with EhP5 is mandatory for an upgrade to SRM7.01.
Nevertheless, i would like to have confirmation regarding this point.
We do not want to use PI to execute the Enterprise Services for CCM. So, we intend to switch BF SRM_WSRM_1 on.
But on the ERP side (EhP5), the only BF dealing with Contract Management is LOG_MM_P2PSE_2 which description is about Service Procurement (and more exactly for item hierarchies).
Does it mean we can use SRM 7.01 with ERP 6.0 EhP4 and without PI but only if we do not use Central Contracts with service hierarchies ?
Thank you for your help.
Regards.
Laurent.

Hi Laurent,
Yes.
When Central contract was designed in SRM 7.0 with ERP EhP4, it was designed with no service hierarchy. But in SRM 7.01 Central contral was enhanced to handle service hierarchy and it works with ERP EhP5. The problem is when we have SRM 7.01 and ERP EhP4. To handle this complication SRM 7.01 was designed to send flat service lines to EhP4 and lower release even though Central contract in SRM has service hierarchy. So while transfering to ERP EhP4 system in standard, all outlines are not consider for transfer and only service lines (Functional items) are transferred to ERP. To do so user needs to maintain the backend destination information of the connected backend system in table BBP_BACKEND_DEST via SM30 transaction with correct system type (for EhP4 system it will be ERP_4.0 and for EhP5 ERP_5.0). SAP Standard program checks this while XML generation for transfer and if system type is ERP_4.0 system it removes all outlines from temp table before generating the XML data. When it is done, ERP has only service lines in its XML and it does the manupulation to create the replication of central contract.
Master Guide (Including Upgrade Information) - SAP SRM 7.01 states:
"The use of SAP NetWeaver PI is optional but it is required for outbound XML-based messaging or for connecting non-SAP planning or execution systems."
So service hierarchy is possible in SRM 7.01 and ECC 6.04 but only with PI. For other CCM functionalities, SRM 7.01 and ECC 6.04 without PI works fine.

PO line item condition to be linked with contract

Hi
In the PO line item condition tab the costs for freight, insurance are specified in different condition types. Moreover it is required to create contracts for freight and insurance.When creating the material PO client wants to link the contract for the freifgt and insurance with this PO line item cost.
How can the contract be linked with the PO line item condition?
Regards

I am not refering to the contract when creating the PO. The contract is created independently and the PO is created.
Explanation of the issue: First the contract is created for the freight and insurance for vendor say V1. Then the PO is created for the material for vendor V2. In the PO line item the freight and insurance is specified in different condition types. When specifying the cost for the freight and insurance they want to link it with the contract that was created with vendor V1. Is it possible to link the contract for freight and insurance with the PO line item cost?

SRM 7.0 EhP 1 central contracts with service lines

Hi,
I have a question concerning the use of SRM 7.0 EhP1 central contracts with service line items. I know that for SRM EhP 1 you would require EhP 5 in ECC. However, since my organisation just went to EhP 4 last weekend I am wondering if there's any option to use services in central contracts without going to EhP 5 in ECC.
Kind regards,
Bastiaan

SRM Central Contract Management with Service Hierarchy

Hello Gurus !
Is it possible to use the export/import functionality (with the business function SRM_CONT_IMPR_2) for changing/adding the service hierarchies in SRM Central Contract? I see the SAP note that the hierarchies are not supported for Purchase Order.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Raj

Hi Raj,
it's not supported for contracts either.

Sch Agr with Central Contracts

Hi Gurus,
Need some inputs:
We are implementing classic SRM 7 with BE ECC6 Eph4.
Did anyone work on distributing the central contracts to BE as Sch Agr.
1. Any lessons learned, challenges. etc.
2. Heard there are issues with Multiple line items?
3. Will the scheduling agr release information get updated in the central contracts? Reason for asking this we would like to trigger the central contract alerts.
Any info is appreciated. Thanks

Processing Delivery Schedules
You can use this business process to process delivery schedules. Scheduling agreements are a form of purchase agreement for which the delivery of the total quantity is over a certain time period in a delivery schedule, consisting of lines indicating the individual quantities with their corresponding planned delivery dates. Scheduling agreements support the following procurement forms:
Standard
Subcontracting
Consignment
Stock transfer
Scheduling agreement releases are issued to the supplier, requesting delivery of the required materials on the dates shown. A creation profile determines which event triggers the creation of a scheduling agreement release, how the delivery dates are displayed (aggregation and release horizon), and whether backlogs and immediate requirements are determined. A tolerance check can be carried out for releases that are created due to changes to the overall delivery schedule in the system.
Scheduling agreement processing is heavily integrated with planning functions. The scheduling agreement releases can result directly from a planning run without requiring further involvement of a purchaser. Before you can use scheduling agreements, you must maintain the source list, including the MRP indicator for relevant items.
Suppliers can issue confirmations (order responses) to the relevant purchasing organization indicating their compliance or noncompliance with the scheduled delivery dates.
You can work with or without release documentation for scheduling agreements.
With release documentation
The schedule lines in the system have internal character and are not transmitted to the supplier until you explicitly create a scheduling agreement release. This may take one of two forms:
Forecast (FRC) delivery schedule
Just-in-time (JIT) delivery schedule
All scheduling agreement releases are stored in the system. Thus you can monitor the scheduling agreement releases, or compare selected scheduling agreement releases with each other.
Without release documentation
The schedule lines are immediately transmitted to the supplier.
Process
The following business process runs in SAP SRM:
Create/process scheduling agreements
Release scheduling agreements
Transmit and monitor scheduling agreements
Process delivery schedules and releases
Transmit and monitor delivery schedules
Administrate scheduling agreements
Monitor/view list display of scheduling agreements

I bought iPhone on eBay but its IMEI is still linked with an existing AT&T account. Seller doesn't reply on my messages. As far as I know this eBay seller isn't a contract holder. It's just a second-hand shop. I have retail box but don't have a receipt
AT&T support can't unlock it until its IMEI is in use on a customer account. What I can to do?

Nothing you can do, if you the seller won't respond to you. Sell it back on Ebay. Lesson learned, only buy iphone from an authorized apple dealer.

Central Contract -- Sch Agreements error in SRM7 -- ECC6 Eph4

Hello,
While creating a central contract in SRM7 and distribution to BE ECC6 Eph4. I am getting a condition mapping error in the IDOC.
Central contracts to contract in BE uses PI
Central Contracts to Sch Agreement in BE is IDOC.
I see an erro " Errors occured in Mapping operation for conditions data" When i check the FM META_CTR_CHECK .
Mapping conditions are maintained in the ECC
SPRO--> Integration with Other SAP components > Central Contracts> Maintain Conditions.
The same settings work in the development system. I see an entry with 003 Message number in table BBPD_CTR_IDOCREF.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Hi Netaji,
I know this has been closed for sometime now, I thought I should tell you that you can send central contract from SRM 7.01 to ECC 6.0 Ehp4 and above using non PI webservices.

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,

Release of central contracts

In SRM a central contract was created and then distributed to SAP ERP ECC 6.0 Backend.
In backend system a release strategy exists for the distributed contract.
When trying to release this contract with ME35K the contract will not be found.
Checking the table EKKO the contract is there and the release strategy is correct.
Debugging transaction ME35K we found that the following statement deletes the distributed contract.
*- Check for EhP4-Switch and Central Contract
IF cl_ops_switch_check=>mm_sfws_p2pse( ) = 'X'.
DELETE xekko WHERE bstyp EQ 'K'
AND statu EQ 'K'.
The question is if there is a switch which needs to be activated or deactivated that the contract can be released by ME35K?
The switch should be: MM_SFWS_P2PSE
Or is it SAP standard that distributed central contracts cannot be released in ERP backend with ME35K?
Thanks in advance.

If you're reference the PO to a PR, than you can remove the assingment of the Contract document type to the PR document type, so the users wont be able to create the PO with reference to the Contract with the specific doc type.

Distributing Central Contract from SRM to ECC

Hi,
We are using SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0 in backend (no EHP). We're setting up a central contract with IDOCs. From what I read we have made the configuration:
in SRM:
- Assign attribute CT_PROC_TY = CCTR
- Connfigure new condition type PB00 which is the same with ECC price for contract
- activate the BADI BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS and coding it so for contract it will always go to backend (in method CONTRACT_LOGSYS_DETERMINE)
- I have activated BADI BBP_CTR_BE_CREATE but writing no code, as there no need for me to do mapping
in ECC:
- Activate inbound IDOC type BLAORD and COND_A and assign it to the logical system of SRM
Then I create the contract in SRM. but:
1. When creating contract, in item overview, i cannot tick 'distribution' indicator. Not sure what is the function
2. In item detail, tab distribution, I cannot put create release-purchasing org. Even when using search help it is not giving any value
Actually dont really understand the usefull of the indicator above, so I let it be empty, then I release the contract
The contract then not appear in ECC. I have checked SMQ1/SMQ2 nothing. Even in WE05 in ECC nothing. The only thing I see is in SLG1 where I see error triggered by user WF-BATCH with message "No recipient found"
Do i miss something in here? Any help will be very appreciated.

Hi Josh,
Central contract is only possible in SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0 EHP 4. You can use local contracts or GOA.

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
