Contact person SUS-EBP

Hi.
I have SRM 5.0 SRMServer 5.5 with SRM and SUS in different client, SP10
When I used transaction BBP_SP_SUPP_INI and export a vendor from EBP to SUS, this vendor was registered in the structure of SUS.
I used self registration to create the contact person user for the vendor and this user was registered in the structure of SUS and in tx SU01 of EBP, but it was not assigned in EBP vendor structure.
Please some suggestion?

Hi,
I have seen the documentation , and following are the findings.
1) User synchronization between SUS and SRM is not mandatory and is only opitonal.
2)So it is still possible to work in SUS with the user being not known in the SRM System.
3) Users in the SUS system are the vendor users and they are linked to then supplier company on the SUS side.
4) I am not clear of "no agent found" which you have mentioned in your post , i have never seen that in SUS system.

Roles for Contact Person in MM-SUS Scenario

Hi !
When we create a contact person using the Create user option in SUS, we assign the roles to the contact person. These roles are basically the standard SAP roles for SUS. We have created Z-roles ( a copy of the standard roles) to restrict cetain txns for users and would like to assign these Z-roles to the contact person . How can we ensure that the Z-roles are displayed instead of the standard roles ?
Regards

Hi
Please go through these complete SUS-MM Configuartion detail links, which will definitely help ->
Roles:
SAP deliver standard roles with authorisations, if You want to maintain your own go to transaction PFCG.
There are two type of role:
- single role
- composite role - (one or more single roles)
To roles You can assign transaction codes, reports, URL links, etc. SAP System automatically creates the authorisations that you can set on Authorisations tab page.
Authorisation:
Authorization profiles must be generated before you can assign them to users. An authorization is generated for each authorization level in the browser view, and an authorization profile for the whole role as represented in the browser view.

Contact person creation in SUS-SRM

Hello experts,
We are using SRM 5.0 (EBP and SUS).
At the moment we are using the Supplier Self Registration functionality, but would like to know if it's possible for the company to control the contact persons (users) creation, instead of the vendor to create them for themselves.
If so, how would this scenario work exactly?
Regards,
Gilberto Gallardo

There is possibility of replicating --> contact persons from SRM to SUS.
you have to use the transaction --->
BBP_SP_COMP_INI in SRM (EBP).
Please try to replicate the contact person ---> to SUS --> and see wether the same contact person can be used to login to SUS.
i have not tried this --> so not sure wether the user can login to SUS.
as far as i know , it is not possible for the purchasing company to create and control users on SUS.
this is because , supplier user needs to be connected to the supplier company -->

Creation of Contact Person for a vendor in SUS, MM SUS scenario

Hi All,
We are working on EBP for bidding with SRM 5.0 and ECC6.0 as the backend. When we do BBPGETVD for the vendor root we have to create a contact person for the vendor to logon.
Our clients requirement is that all the data in the R/3 has to come to EBP including the telephone number and email addresses so that the vendor number should be created as the contact persons userid.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Best regards,
Sridhar.

Hi,
Also you dont need to enter any roles while creating the Contact person for a vendor.You just need to enter the employee/user details who will be the contact person for the vendor and after you save all the data ,the CP for the vendor will be created and the system will issue a message "Contact person XXXX for BP yyyyy created".

SUS - Contact person creation for vendor

All,
We are at SRM5.0 and using SUS - MM scenario.
Questions -
1. How can we assign SU01 user as a contact person for a vendor replicated to SUS?
2. How can SU01 user id assigned in Org Structure without assigning to any root node?
Information-
1. Vendor got replicated from MM to SUS successfully and got created under vendor group.
2. We cannot use BBPMAININT because standard role SAP_EC_BBP_ADMINISTRATOR is not generated.
3. SU01 - Vendor user id is already created but not assigned in Org Structure.
4. Coming back to Q.2 we need to assign this vendor user id in Org Structure without connecting it to any root node. This will generate the BP for user.
5. Once this is done maybe we can map the vendor BP with user BP via transaction BP or BUP2.
Request for your inputs.
Thanks

Hi Sanjeev and Muthu,
Thanks for the response!
However here is the problem as mentioned in my initial post.
Vendor user id - SU01 is already created which needs to mapped with vendor created in Org Model. Now since the vendor user id is not mapped in Org Model yet, no BP is generated for the same.
If somehow we can assign the SU01 user id in Org Model then it will create BP for that user and after that we can use BP to link vendor with user.
We cannot use users_gen at the moment because the vendor id needs to be standalone without assigning to any node. users_gen will ask for the org unit to which this user should be assigned which we want to avoid.
Create Users transaction cannot be used also since the SU01 id already created.
Thanks

SUS - Adding SU01 uset as Vendor contact person

Hi,
In SUS, we have supplier users already created in SU01. Is there a transaction to associate the SU01 users as vendor contact person in SUS? I know you can accomplish this via BBPMAININT in SRM. I don't believe we can use this transaction in SUS.
Surendra

Hi Sanjeev,
Thanks for that helpful soluetion. I could do the Vendor user mapping in the Org Structure (PPOSA_BBP) , before i was trying to do the same in the Vendor Org Structure.
But, just want to know whether this mapping of Vendor Users inthe POrg structure is correct or not. If ocrrect what about the User Attributes ?They follow that of the Pur Org ?
We want to stop the Self registration by Vendors and we will generate User ID & Pswd for him to access the SUS Applciation.
Appreciate your earliest response.

Hi All,
May i know how standard SAP SUS manage contact person?
Example: Supplier A have created a user by using "Delegated Administration" functionality in SUS portal. If the user had left the company, what will be the standard SAP process to remove the user from SUS system?

Please advise.
Thanks,

Srm 7.0 - Transfer of Supplier - Temporary Contact Person Creation

SRM 7.0/ECC 6.04
During transfer of supplier from supplier directory from ROS/SUS to EBP client, and vendor replication from ECC to SRM as Supplier Portal the system is not creating temporary contact peson. Per SAP documentation if the Temporary contact person is checked in configuration the system should creare CP and User ID automatically during transfer of Supplier/vendor Data. There is no XML message generated by the system except an entry is added to supplier monitor cockpit.
Not sure if we are missing a step or this is a SAP issue. Has anyone done this implementation and seen this working?
Thanks,

Hi
We can create the Contact person for the vendor with the following roles in SRM 7.0
SAP_EC_BBP_ADMINISTRATOR-->SAP SRM: Administrator
SAP_EC_BBP_PURCHASE-->mySAP SRM Purchaser
SAP_EC_BBP_ST_PURCHASER -->SAP SRM: Strategic Purchaser
Select the vendor created by you from the 'Business partner' page and click on 'Create Contact person'.
Enter the details required as per the requirement and save.

Contact person creation

Hi all,
My requirement is to create a contact person for a given parnter. I found the FM BBP_CREATE_CONTACT_PERSON,but not able to use it correctly. How to run this FM succesfully both in SUS and SRM systems? I am facing many issues with address and authorizations.I thought of enhancing the BAPI 'BAPI_IDOC_INPUTP' to create contact persons and for that i thought of using the FM BBP_CREATE_CONTACT_PERSON. Please suggest me the solution.
Thanks in Advance,
Deepthi.

Hello,
You can create the contact person in the log-in of admin user who has role
SAP_BBP_STAL_ADMINISTRATOR
FM BBP_CREATE_CONTACT_PERSON is correct. This is called by program BBP_VENDOR_CREATE_F01.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

No POs found when entering with vendor role/contact person for vendor

Dear colleagues,
I wanted to post either a GR or an invoice as a vendor, that is, entering the system as the contact person of the vendor, with the vendor role, and searching for the POs created for me as vendor, then selecting one of them.
However, when searching for POs to post the documents with reference to POs, the report says there are no POs available, when in fact I have created several POs for that vendor in the systems.
What might I be missing? What are the conditions, rules, configuration steps needed so that the vendor can see the POs created for him and post subsequent documents with the role SAP_BBP_STAL_VENDOR and entering the system as a contact person for that vendor?
Will award points for helpful answers. Thanks in advance
David

Hi David,
This scenario which you require for receiving P.Os,sending P.O response, posting confirmation and invoice is called
SUS (Supplier self service) scenario.
You have to configure this scenario to avail all these services and the vendor should be SUS vendor. A mere vendor role will not allow the vendor to perform all these functions.
XI (Exchange infrastructure) is required in configuring the SUS scenario.
Hope this resolves your query.
Award points for helpful answers.

Bapi or FM to create,change and delete Contact persons for vendors

Dear Experts,
We are replicating the Contact persons details from SUS(SRM) to ECC, When a Contact person is create,changed or deleted the data should be replicated in ECC. We are doing custom development to do this, I need to know is there any function module or Bapi which I can use to create , change or delete the contacts persons for a vendor.
I tried using BAPI_ADDRESSCONTPART_CHANGE, BAPI_ADDRESSORG_SAVEREPLICA for changing but its doesn't covers few fields like time zone etc. For deletion I tried WY_KNVK_SINGLE_DEL_FROM_BUFFER its too not helping me .
Please let me know is there any bapi or fm to do these process or we can go for BDC.
Thanks & regards,
Santhosh.R

Hi Santosh,
Can you please tell me what Business Scenario is asking you to consider the Time Zones .
If you know the Customer Number you can very well get the country and there are various FM's to get the time zone based on a country .
Now Call the FM (as wrote by you ) based on the TIme Zone condition,
Please enlighten me if i am incorrect.
Thanks

Process Bid as Substitute---Contact Person Mandatory?

Dear Experts,
Our customer won't like to use SUS to process Bid but they need to use 'Bid Invitation' as RFQ. It seems the purchaser need to use function 'process bid as Substitute' to matintain the quotation. My question is:
1、Is purchaser have to use function 'process bid as Substitute' ? Any other way to maintain the quotation?
2、If purchaser have to use function 'process bid as Substitute' , is contact person mandatory for each bidder? We have to mass create contact person for every protential bidder?
Many thanks.

Hi Darcy,
There are two transactions to submit surrogate bids and are below:
To do this, the purchaser goes into the transaction Process Bid as Substitute, searches for a contact person and creates the bid for the bid invitation in question.
1) BBP_QUOT_BOB - Process Surrogate Bid
Here you have to select the contact person of a bidder first for submitting a surrogate bid
The purchaser can also bid as substitute within an existing bid invitation by using the Bid as Substitute functions provided in the bidder list
2)BBP_BID_INV - Process Bid Invitation
Here you have to navigate to
Header Data -> Bidders / Bids
-> Here for all bidders with contact person and who have permitted surrogate bidding, you click "Create Quotation for Bidder" button at the right hand side.
Hope this is clear. But a contact person is required in both cases.
Regards
Kathirvel
