Contract in srm or mdm?

hi people!
-i know that it's not necessary to upload the materials in srm, and they can stay in r3 and mdm, and you can watch them in the catalog and srm.
here's my doubt,
does it exist something similar with the contracts? or they must be uploaded in srm?
thanx

Hi
You can upload materials and contract in SRM from R/3
It is standard  replication of materials & contract.
it can be done manually (or) thro ' a job which runs daily to upload the  materials in SRM from SAP  R/3

  • SRM MDM Catalog - Transfer Contracts from SRM - XI - MDM

    Hi,
    We are implementing SRM MDM Catalog1.0 with SRM 5.0 & ECC 6.0.
    We have already configured XI content for MDM Catalog.
    We have also done the basic settings for transferring contracts from srm to XI (including Backend System & Check box in Contracts for transfer to catalog).
    But when i run the report SRMMDM_CTR_TRANSFER, the log tells me that contracts transfer has been initialized, but I cant see any XML message in SXMB_MONI
    Can someone pls help and tell me why is that happening??
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Jasmeet

    Hi Mausam,
    yes we have a SRM system from which we want are going to be sending Contracts, Prod Id's, Product Categories, Suppliers List etc from SRM to MDM using XI.
    We have the Pre delivered content for XI from which we have set up the Interfaces etc.
    This mapping between SRM-XI-MDM works pretty fine if i try to send Products or suppliers from SRM. I can see the IDOCs being generated. But when i run the report for Contracts, I cant see any IDOC in SXMB_MONI in SRM which is my source system.
    So hence my question..... Is there some other way by which Contracts are transferred and if so then how and where can I see it.
    Regards,
    Jasmeet

  • Distribute Central Contract in ECC to MDM

    Dear SAP experts,
    We are in SRM 7.01 with backend ECC 6.05 and deploying classic scenario. We are also using central contrat management feature (Contract negotiated in SRM and then distributed to ECC), and we plan to use MDM Catalog
    As central contract will be distributed to ECC anyway, we plan to use tcode MECCM from ECC to send the central contract data to MDM catalog. Is this scenario possible? Or we can only distribute contract from SRM to MDM Catalog?
    Best regards,
    John

    In MECCM, uploading replicated Central contracts from ECC to MDM catalog is not possible.
    The program has a specific check to exclude replicated central contracts.
    Have you tried this?

  • SRM and MDM for material master in SRM contracts for multiple R/3

    Dear all,
    my question is:
    We are implementing SRM 4.0 in classic scenario with multiple R/3 back-end and we want to set-up Global Outline Agreements in SRM in a multi-backend environment where the Material Master are not harmonized.
    We heard that MDM and COntent Integraton can be a solution.
    Then detailled question is:
    Can we have 2 material numbers (e.g. ABC and XYZ) in 2 different R/3 systems refering the same product.
    Have the mapping done in MDM (Content Integrator?) to a third material number:123
    Replicating the material master 123 to SRM from MDM(?)
    Create global Outline Agreements in SRM for Material Master 123.
    Distribute the GOA as Outline Agreement to R/3 system 1 with the translation to ABC and to R/3 system 2 with the translation XYZ, all of that during the distribution step (or another).
    Have the call-offs quantities correct on 123 in SRM and BW?
    IF yes, how is it working, do you have some documentation discribing the scenario and the config steps to do?
    Thanks in avance

    Hello RD,
    That's a good question.
    You are on the right way. MDM is the tool for you.
    But..
    Content Integrator (CI) was first developped for Shell, to address the need of cross-referencing of material/supplier/category IDs, for:
    - reporting purpose (actual Spend Analysis)
    - mapping purpose (send of XML PO)
    CI was later "fusionned" into the new MDM (1.0) solution.
    So now, you can not order CI without MDM (even if some SRM slides still present CI).
    But mapping API where developped for all inboud/outbound interfaces in SRM, for materials only (good luck for you).
    You will find everywhere this piece of code:
      Call ECI
        CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_PRODUCT_MAP'
          TABLES
            it_input          = lt_mapping_in
            et_output         = lt_mapping_out
          EXCEPTIONS
            logsys_not_found  = 1
            driver_not_found  = 2
            product_not_found = 3
            internal_error    = 4
            OTHERS            = 5.
    So it is ok, you have the mapping call, but I don't know if all the rest of the process was really "finalized" (call of API mapping in CI, via XI). I personnaly never used it, but I assume it should work.
    I my opinion your process is supported by SAP:
    - Extract materials from both R/3 and consolidate them as a single product in MDM.
    - Distribute this product into SRM.
    - Maintain contracts on those products.
    - Distribute them to R/3 (The ECI call is also used during contract distribution).
    - Call offs corrects in SRM and BW
    For MDM documentation, look at netweaver area of service.sap.com.
    For MDM/SRM integration, look at SRM 4.0 spend analysis:
    https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700004424262004E/GlobalSpendOverview.ppt
    For SRM contract distribution, call-offs, BW, look at SRM in details in service.sap.com/srm/SRM4.0:
    https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700001966382004E/contracten.ppt

  • Issue with Contract Replication from SRM to MDM  - XML structure

    Hi
    We are having an issue with trnsfering a contract to MDM. We have released the contract for update to MDM in the contract through the distribute to catalog option. An XML is generated in SRM that gets sucessfully passed to PI through Catalogupdatenotification_out. In PI the XML fails in the Interface Determination step. the issue that has been noticed is that the XML that is generated in SRM does not contain product category or product ID which is basically what the condition mapping in PI checks for. The conditions in PI were setup as per SAP.
    But now the XML fails in PI because it does not find a combination for Catalog type code = 03 and product category. Please find the XML structure in SRM and you will see that it does not have a product category even though the contract has one.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

    Dear Krupa,
    Thank you for your quick reply.
    So we should consider the scenario where SRM is the central repository for the contracts, and all the changes done in SRM should be replicated to ERP.
    In this scenario, do you know which steps should be done to allow contract replication from SRM to ERP? I already created a central contract in SRM but there is no message sent to PI.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Distribute contract to SRM-MDM 2.0 catalog in SRM 4.0

    Hi,
    My client is using SRM 4.0 and need to distribute his contracts to SRM-MDM 2.0 catalog.
    Once you set the flag "Distribute contract to catalog" in the contract the XI Sender Interface that the system uses is CatalogUpdateNotification_Out form the Sender Namespace http://sap.com/xi/EBP.
    The question is whether there is an XI content for SRM-MDM 2.0 and if so then how can i redirect the distribution to another interface.
    Thanks,
    Raz
    Edited by: Raz Golan on Jan 14, 2009 8:55 AM

    Hi,
    You can download XI contents for SRM-MDM Catalog 2.0 from SAP Service Marketplace same as other patches. http://service.sap.com/swdc

  • Replicating Products/Catalog from SRM to MDM

    I am implimenting SRM and MDM on 7.1 and SRM-MDM Catalog 3.0
    I wanted to replicate catalog data from SRM. As we know each catalog record in MDM contains Product, Supplier, Info record data. I am not sure if we have to map all these in MDM or It will be mapped by SAP delivered content for replication.
    I am using BBP_CCM_TRANSFER transaction in SRM to transfer data to MDM. In the selection screen I am using 'Category Hierarchy', Category ID and Language fields. I did unchek/check Force Intial Transport and P_debug. There was not much difference.
    However I am getting following info messages, but unable to see any data in MDM
    16.06.2010 09:27:41: Initial transfer for catalog SRM_EXTRACTED_CTLG
    16.06.2010 09:27:42: Determine category TELEPHONE (5 products)
    16.06.2010 09:27:42: Start of catalog transfer for 1
    16.06.2010 09:27:42: catalog transfer ended
    I am now stuck here. Can any one share details of the replication process and steps involved.

    Hi Sudha,
    Please explain your business scenario. What data you want to replicate from SRM to MDM. We can replicate Suppliers, Contracts and Product Master from SRM to MDM through XI. Make sure you hae configured XI settings for that. You have to download the pre-delivered XI content from SAP Markeplace. Please check Note # 1177779 & 1177780 regarding that.
    We can use following reports in SRM to replicate following data in MDM
    BBP_CCM_Transfer_Catalog-----Product master
    ROS_SUPPLIER_SEND_TO_CATALOG-----Supplier data
    SRMMDM_CTR_Transfer----Contract data from SRM
    In your case, you are running BBP_CCM_TRANSFER. Please check the SXMB_MONI t-code to monitor the XML messages whether XML files are processing correctly or getting stuck.
    Thanks,

  • Central Contract in SRM 7

    Hi Experts,
    We are on SRM 7 Ehp1.
    ECC Ehp4
    Need a clarification on Central Contract of SRM.
    When we create and distribute the Central contract to backend, the price is shown as Zero in Backend.
    When the PO is created in backend, from where will the price be picked. Is it SRM?
    Is this correct?
    Thanks
    Aditya

    Hi,
    Are you creating service contracts?
    When we worked on Hierarchy contract we used MDM to get hold of those. As there were several issues in distribution.
    1. Basic Contract can contain line items.
    2. This is where we have used MDM to store contracts & used accordingly.
    You can distribute parent contract (with child contracts) as of I fell. Give a shot & let us know the ensues.

    1)  This procedure is for Linux OS - Similarly we tried in Windows OS ( If any procedure is wrong also, Please correct us)
    To register the program login into the OS level as sudo su u2013 <sid>adm and execute the following command.
    rfcexec u2013g<program id> -a<gateway host name> -x<gateway service>
    rfcexec is the server program name, the <program id> can be obtained from SM59, it is case sensitive and should match with the entry in SM59. The <gateway host name> and <gateway service> can be obtained from the transaction SMGW. When this command is executed it goes to a hanging loop.
    The connection will fail once this command is terminated or the user executing this command logs off
    2)
    To avoid this, instead of using the above mentioned command an entry should be made in the file saprfc.ini
    To do this, execute the following command
    sudo su u2013 <sid>adm
    rfcexec u2013D<destination name>
    <destination name> is the RFC destination name in SM59
    In order to do above step 2,  we could not find saprfc.ini in windows 2008 server. Please let us know path where it will be usually?

  • Creation of backend contract from SRM system?

    Dear Experts,
    I am bit confused with the scenario of creation of backend contract from SAP SRM system? It says in few cases, based on the BAdi 'BBP_DETERMINE_Logsys', the system creates a backned contract directly in a backend ERP system. Why do we need when we have central contract?
    We can meet the same requirement through central contract where we will authorize only purchasing organizations of a backend system and block the contract for local sourcing in SRM?
    Secondly, How to find a contract / scheduling agreement created in a backend system when a central contract is distributed to the backend system?
    Thanks and regards,
    Ranjan

  • Contract from srm to SAP R/3

    I made a account assigned pr(with cost centre) in SAP R/3, then i transferred it to SRM, and made a bid in SRM, after all I selected one bid and triggered a contract in SRM so that contract gets made in SAP r/3.
    Now the contract automatically picks account assignment as "U" while account assignment is mandatory for that material so it does not make a contract and gives error that account assignemnt mandatory for that material.
    Basically account assignemnt data is not being picked up when i transfer pr feom R/3 to SRM.
    So when I make a contract it also does not get transferred from SRM to R/3.
    Pls. help and guide.
    Thanks

    Hi Nacho.
    Sorry the bad news, but account is not transfers from SRM to ECC or from ECC to SRM in contracts.
    The Contracts goes between systems via IDOCs (BLAREL)
    As you can see in transaction WE60, IDOC BLAREL02 has not account data.
