No Contract Distribution with PPS

Hi guys,
We are implementing SRM7 with ECC6 EHP.
With reference to sap note 1354971 Disable Contract distribution in PPS, does it means we cannot use Central Contract function together with PPS activated?
As I understand the concept of Central Contract is to enable an Operational Contract to be used as valid source of supply in both SRM7 and ECC6 (and for this to be possible it has to be distributed to backend ECC6). However, if the distribution disable how would the contract available as source of supply in ECC6?
Cheers,
Tom

Thanks for your reply.
I am trying to get the contract distribution working but for some reason I seem to be missing something very fundamental.
I think that I have done all the required config steps and PI has been implemented accordingly.
Would you have any config notes / documentation that you would be will to share so that I can hopefully get to the bottom of it.

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.

SRM 7.0 Central Contract- Distribution to backend failure

Hello experts,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 Central contracts scenario with PI.
The Contracts get created and Released but the problem is that the Distribution to backend fails. The Status in BBP_PD shows 'Distribution Incorrect' and the RZ20 gives an error 'Backend data cannot be read'.
We checked all the configuration settings (including the PI settings) and everything seems to be in order.
Would appreciate if someone could throw some light on the potential cause of the problem.
Thanks
Raman.

Message must have created . check all SRM outbound transactions .but PI could not catch them.
Note 1284369 - User attributes check in Contract distribution via services - what is your SP level in SRM 700.
The sap stratergy in earlier version
table in ECC BBPD_CTR_IDOCREF with message 019-This will result in setting the GOA status to 'Distribution Incorrect'.
so SAP might have tried the same way in CCTR as well, Once message are created and this message number like IDOC number updated in ECC table for the further refrence .so like wise SRM trying to communicate the same to ECC but it would have failed.
do you remeber when GOA idoc fails this table we will have reference number and reprocessing idoc.
like any reference of your input must register in one ECC table but there may have this table or some other reference table.
/SAPSRM/CL_CH_SOA_MAP_CTR_OUT CLASS DO SOME trick and see what is happening here

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.

Central contract distribution in two backend ERP system

Hello All,
I am implementing SRM 7.0 Contract management (SAPKIBKV07) with two backend ERP system.
We have a requirement where we will create a Global contract in SRM system. Upon distribution based on purchase organisation this contract should get distributed to two different backend system.
Q-1) Is this a standard featutre available with Contract management or de we need set up some configuration. If yes, then please let me know the details.
Q-2) Again here the master data for both the backend system is not synchronised hence if a Global contract in created in SRM system and distributed to two different countries then each contract in ERP should have the region specific vendor code ?
How this functionality can be achieved.
Thanks,
Yatin

Hello All,
Has anyone implemented contract management with two different backend system and with different master data set up
Thanks,

Can Central Contracts be Distributed from SRM 7.03 PPS to ECC?

Does anyone know if central contracts can be distributed from SRM 7.03 (PPS) to ECC? I have read several forums that this is not supported. I need to know if it is are there limitations?
Thanks.

SAP very unlikely to state anything 'clearly' especially if it could be perceived as a shortcoming in their software! I was involved in an SRM-PPS implementation in 2010 where an SAP consultant managed the procurement piece and we were simply told it didn't accommodate distribution of contracts.
Found this Note :
1354971 - Disable distribution tab and distribution buttons in PPS
See this discussion :
No Contract Distribution with PPS
Good luck.

Central contrcact distribution with WSRM with SRM 7.01 (EHP1)

Hi Gurus,
We are implementing Central contract distribution with SRM 7.01 and ECC 6 EHP 5 backends.
Can we use WSRM for Point-to-Point Communication for contract distribution? As the current customer does not have PI I am happy to avoid implementing PI.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Naveen,
Find the error details:
We have followed the steps for peer to peer service configuration as per note1268336 for synchronous service QUERYCODELIST for our XI independent scenario for contract management.
As per the steps for peer to peer for settings,we are done with the configuration in SRM side i.e. provider system and configured the QUERYCODELIST service.
Now while doing the same on ECC side(BDE) i.e. Consumer system when we are maintaining this service and creating Logical port,We get pop up to enter the details.
Once we enter the details and click on APPLY setting button we are getting this error which Muthu as mentioned.
"SRT Framework exception: Error in WSDL access: Exception occurred in communication framework:Error in HTTP Framework:404Connection Failed"
I have configured this in the past for some other project once where similar error(it was 402 or 403) was coming since WSDL node was not active under SRT in SRM but this time we have checked it and all the required services are also active.
Can you help to check further on this.
Regards.
Paresh.

SRM 7 Contract Distribution not possible in PPS

Hi all,
We're on SRM 7 / ECC6 EHP3, and activated PPS. I have been told that for PPS the distribution is not supported completely, and hence the functionality is disabled, NOTE 1354971.
My problem is, since we have activated the PPS functionality in all the landscapes we have at present. I can not switch PPS off or refer to another system without the PPS. By reverting the note 1354971, i have only managed to get an assign distribution button active at item level. I would have assumed, the contract/GOA should be able to be distributed at header level. Consider a contract with 1000 items.
Can please someone tell me what is the process for distributing a contract completely. Not just selective items.
Moreover, this does not work, when i have outline items/sub items in the contract.
Regards
Ali

Dear Ali,
Interfaces(XML) which are used to transfered the central contract are not extended to all the fields related to PPS functionality. Eg. Guaranteed Minimum.
These fields will not be transfered to backend and other process like release value updation to the backend contract has limitation as PPS funcalities can be used only in extended classic scenario.
So we have a limitation and also this functionality will not be supported in PPS.
As it was a bug , we have corrected this through the note 1354971.
Nevertheless, you can enable this funcationality and use with the limitation.
You will have to handle this through custom meta data handle where you need to create dynamic class and method and maitain in the customizing table /SAPSRM/V_MDA_HC. You can enable the Assign distribution button and link in the dynamic class.
You can check the configuration in the standard meta table /SAPSRM/V_MDA_HD for reference.
I hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
Lisa

SRM 7 Contract Distribution not possible in PPS - is it true ?

Hi SRM Gurus,
I gather that the SRM 7.0 Central Contract are not distributed to ECC 6.04 in PPS environment.
( Ours is SRM 7.0 ECC 6.0 Enhp 4 with PI 7.11 on PPS - ECS.)
Correct me if i am wrong.
If so, is there any other way to distribute Central Contract to ECC . Even it its partial distribution.
Thogh, I hv config for CCTR following the SNote 1268821. To start the problem, the Distribution button on the header of the contract is disabled. CCTR tran type configured both in SRM and ECC.
Kindly share your thoughts.

Re: SRM 7 Contract Distribution not possible in PPS

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,

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.

Central Contract, MDM Catalog, and classic scenario

Dear SAP experts,
We are in SRM 7.01 with backend ECC 6.05 deploying classic scenario. We are using Central Contract Management in which we negotiate contract in SRM and later distribute it to ECC. We also plan to use SRM-MDM Catalog.
We notice that if we are using classic scenaro, the contract that is used as reference is the contract number in ECC (the one distributed from SRM). So at first we assume that if we want to push the contract data to MDM, we should have pushed the ECC Contract number. However we find out that actually SAP block the ECC Contract coming as distribution from SRM to go to MDM.
Our second option is to use distribution of contract from SRM to catalog. It does using SRM contract number. We create SC and then we pull the catalog item from the catalog (which contain SRM contract number) and then we order. However we end up with 'error in process' in which the system try to create a PR instead in the ECC (meaning that the contract number cannot be read).
We're puzzled with this. How can we use the combination of central contract, MDM catalog and classic scenario? Can we use the combination?
Best regards,
John

Maria
If you want the contracts to be in SRM and do not want them to send to Backend, then check this out.
Create a Vendor list for those items in SRM by assigning the local contracts to the vendors.Activate Vendor list for sourcing.
Then local contract data should pick as SOS from the vendor list.
If you can create contracts in Backend for stock material then SC would pick the backend contract as SOS in classic scenario.
Let me know if the above works or not.
PS : Reward points if helpful.

SRM 7.01 Central Contract: Email Notification when contract is distributed

Dear all,
I lwould like to know if it exists a standard functionality for distribution notification and how it is customizable.
The scenario:
I create my central contract in SRM and i would like to be able to send email alert to the back end user (Local Contract Manager for example) when the contract has been distributed correctly. Does the user need to be is the SRM Organisational Structure?
Can i use the event schema like expiring contract notifications?
Thank you for your help.
Best Regards,
Jennifer

The first interface that try to get out from SRM was " PurchasingContractERPRequest_Out_V1", thus based on this interface we made the configuration on PI. So, after pressing button " create contract" on srm if we execute tx SXI_MONITOR in SRM we found the interface " PurchasingContractERPRequest_Out_V1" and in the backend system ( ECC) at tv SXI_MONITOR we found interface PurchasingContractERPRequest_In_V1 for this contract with black and white flag ( processed successfully) but no contract created in ECC not even SRM.
Anyway we have checked that inbound proxy is executed but we dont see any contract created
Is this the right Interface? We are missing something?
Best regads and thanks again for your help!
