Convert preferred vendor to fixed vendor

Hi,
I'm trying to convert a preferred vendor to fixed vender using BAdI BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI.
I use the following coding:
LS_HEADER           = ES_HEADER.
LT_ITEM[]           = ET_ITEM[].
LT_ACCOUNT[]        = ET_ACCOUNT[].
LT_PARTNER[]        = ET_PARTNER[].
LT_ORGDATA[]        = ET_ORGDATA[].
LT_HCF[]            = ET_HCF[].
LT_ICF[]            = ET_ICF[].
if sy-tcode = 'BBPSC08'.          "Completion Workflow
item data
    loop at et_item into ls_item.

       append ls_partner to lt_partner.
        modify lt_partner index lv_idx from ls_partner.
     ls_msg-p_guid = ls_item-guid.
     ls_msg-msgty = 'I'.
     ls_msg-arbgb = 'ZEBP'.

     append ls_msg to et_msg.

endif.

When the partner is changed from 39 to 19 the following message appears:
BBP:PD(144): Partner function may not be changed
I've tried out the coding given as example in several postings in this forum..
Maybe anybody can help.

Changing preferred vendor to fixed vendor in SRM PO- no currency conversion

Hi All,
We are on SRM_SERVER 550, SP11, ECS scenario.
Users create carts where they enter preferred vendor.
After approval we found that the PO's were created only in "Held" Status.
So we did a conversion of the preferred vendor (PF 39) to Fixed vendor (PF 19) during PO creation using BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI- BBP_PO_CHANGE.
We also implemented BBP_GROUP_LOC_PO,GROUP_PO so that all items with same preferred vendor are grouped into a single PO.
We observed that PO is now getting created in ordered status, where the preferred vendor is getting converted to fixed vendor as per our code change. But we also found a problem- that the line item price doesnt get converted to Vendor order currency after the Po is created. For ex: If line item price is 10 GBP and Vendor order currency is EUR, the line item price in the PO shows 10 EUR. The currency conversion fro GBP to EUR does not happen.
This does not happen for catalog items/PO's where the cart comes with a fixed vendor (PF 19).
So there surely seems to be something missing in our code for converting Preferred vendor to fixed vendor which is preventing/not converting the currency as well.
Please find below the code we are using in DOC_CHANGE_BADI for PO, is there any step in this which is causing the currency conversion to be skipped?
CONSTANTS:C_FIXED_VENDOR   TYPE BBP_PDS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT
                       VALUE '00000019',
           C_PREFERRED_VEND TYPE BBP_PDS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT
                       VALUE '00000039'.
   READ TABLE ET_PARTNER INTO LS_PARTNER WITH KEY
                         P_GUID      = IS_HEADER-GUID
                         PARTNER_FCT = C_FIXED_VENDOR.
   IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
   READ TABLE ET_PARTNER INTO LS_PARTNER WITH KEY
                         P_GUID      = IS_HEADER-GUID
                         PARTNER_FCT = C_PREFERRED_VEND.
    IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
      CLEAR IDX.
      IDX = SY-TABIX.
      MOVE C_FIXED_VENDOR TO LS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT.
   MODIFY ET_PARTNER INDEX IDX FROM LS_PARTNER TRANSPORTING PARTNER_FCT.
   ENDIF.
   ENDIF.
Regardas,
Srivatsan

there is nothing in your code which prevents the conversion between the two currencies,
it can be the following reason
1) system as standard is not performing the conversion.
2) conversion factors are not maintained (or) conversion factors are maintained and the expiry date for the conversion factors has passed.

How to change Preferred Vendor to Fixed Vendor in SC - SRM-5.0

SRM Experts,
We are using SRM 5.0, ECC 6.0 and PI-7.0.
We are using classic scenario in SRM. When user selects the vendor with Outline agreement in SOS tab then SC creates PO in backend system because it has Fixed Vendor otherwise SC creates PR in the backend system.
We have a new requirement in SRM to create PO instead of PR in the backend system if Purchasing Org=5xxx and total value of SC is less than USD 5XXX and Vendor is a Preferred Vendor in the SC.
Do I need to use the Check Document BADI to check the total value of the SC and to check whether it is a Preferred Vendor and then in the Change Document BADI, change the value from Preferred Vendor to the Fixed Vendor before SC is saved?
OR someone has any other suggestions on this?
Which BADI is called first Check Document or Change Document before saving the SC?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Atul/Disha,
I sent you my code and problem in detail at your email address.
Here is the requirement for Changing Preferred Vendor to Fixed Vendor. We are on SRM 5.0 and using classic scenario. I am new to SRM world. I also checked the note- 962474 in our system and it has been applied. We upgraded to SRM 5.0 in Oct-07.
1.     My client has customization for sources of supply tab. It shows the vendor information in SOS tab based Product category, Plant and Purchasing group selected in the SC. If SC contains Vendor with Outline agreement then SC creates PO in the backend system. So in Change BADI logic for new enhancement of converting Preferred vendor into Fixed Vendor should not change anything in the SC using Outline agreement.
2.     We have created Custom table-zsrm_fix_vend with fields, purchasing group, company code, currency and total value.
3.     We need to convert the preferred vendor into fixed vendor
    if the SCs 1st line item purchasing group = zsrm_fix_vend-ekorg and
             SCs 1st line item company code = zsrm_fix_vend-bukrs     and
           SCs currency = zsrm_fix_vend-currency                   and
           SCs Total value less than(<)zsrm_fix_vend-totalvalue.
My testing results and problems
1.     When I create a new SC with less value than totalValue from the custom table, change document BADI is changing the preferred vendor into fixed vendor and it is creating PO in the backend system. So this is working as expected.
2.     When I create a new SC with greater value than totalValue from the custom table, change document BADI is NOT changing the preferred vendor into fixed vendor and it is creating PR in the backend system. So this is working as expected.
3.     When I use Outline agreement in the SC, it is creating PO in the backend so change BADI logic is not affecting this existing functionality which is good.
4.     Problem - When I copy a new SC from existing SC with less value than totalValue from the custom table and then changing the amount with the greater value than the custom table, change document BADI is not changing the fixed vendor to the preferred vendor and when I click on sources of supply tab - it is giving me an error Partner Function may not be Changed and it exits me to main shopping cart screen.
5.     Problem - When I copy a new SC from existing SC with greater value than totalValue from the custom table and then changing the amount with the lessser value than the custom table, change document BADI is not changing the preferred vendor to the fixed vendor and when I click on sources of supply tab - it is giving me an error Partner Function may not be Changed and it exits me to main shopping cart screen.
6.     When I copy the SC with Outline Agreement and change the amount it works all the time it is not affected by the change document BADI which is good.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Millions thanks to you!

'Preferred Vendor' and 'Vendor' in Purchase Order Partner Overview screen

Hello All,
Please can you provide me with some assistance to the following issue we have on our SRM 5.0 system......here goes.....
In 'Define Sourcing for Product Categories config' , we have set the value to 'Sourcing is never carried out'. Now, when we manually assign a Supplier to the Cart and have it automatically converted to a Purchase Order, the Purchase Order is created but only in Held Status as only the 'Preferred Vendor' in the PO Partner Overview screen is populated with the other 'Vendor' field remaining blank and requiring manual intervention by our users
Please can someone explain how we are able make the system to always have the 'Vendor' field populated, therefore not needing any manual intervention.
Your help would be appreciated,
Thanks
Steve Walsh Jnr

Hi
Implement the following method , in which you will force prefer vendor
to fixed vendor for all applicable sc.
IF_EX_BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI~BBP_SC_change.
You will have to work with partner function 00000039 which is the
prefered vendor to move into the partner function 00000019.
In the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI we provide the business partner data
through the IT_PARTNER interface table. the prefered vendor or desired
vendor has partner type 39, the regular supplier will have partner
type 19. a switch from 39 to 19 should create a po instead of
incomplete po.

Vendor list and preferred vendor

Hi,
We are using classic scenario and currently, all carts are intercepted by the purchasing department so purchase requisitions are manually converted into POs.
We want to implement vendor lists but SRM assigns any vendor chosen from a vendor list as fixed, which means it will convert to a PO once the shopping cart is fully approved.
Is there a BADI I can use to change the vendor from 'Fixed' to 'preferred'. Can BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI be used to do so or does it only works when changing a 'preferred' vendor into a 'fixed' vendor?
Thanks

Hi
Yes... we have done this long back successfully..
The BADI - BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI can be easily used...
Also, you can look for BBP_SOS_BADI...
Do let me know, incase you face any problems.

Automatic PO with preferred vendor

Hi all.
We Have SRM 5.0 ECS
I need to generate an automatic PO from a SC, this contains like source of supply the Preferred Vendor and price, in this type of purchase I do not use contracts
This is possible?

Hi Raul,
As it is clear from your statement that you are not using Contracts and you are talking about Free Form text Shopping Carts where you can enter Prefferred Vendor. You need to implement Doc Change BAdI to convert this preferred Vendor to fixed Vendor so that after approval Shopping Cart creates a PO.
Here is the sample code we had implemented for the very same purpose
BAdI BBP_DOC_CHANGE
METHOD if_ex_bbp_doc_change_badi~bbp_sc_change.
data: ls_partner type BBP_PDS_PARTNER.
loop at et_partner into ls_partner.
    if ls_partner-partner_fct = '00000039'. "Preferred vendor
      ls_partner-partner_fct = '00000019'. "Fixed vendor
      modify et_partner from ls_partner.
   endif.
endloop.
ENDMETHOD.
Thanks

Preferred Vendor Message

We are using SRM 7.0. I have a user that is getting the following error message when they are trying to order their cart:
Enter no more than one partner of type Preferred Vendor
I see the vendor on the line item. But, when I look in the SRM GUI under BBP_PD, the preferred vendor is listed twice. I have tried to replicate the issue but I'm not exactly sure what the user may be doing. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this message would be appearing and how to fix it?
We have a program that enters the preferred vendor on the other lines if there are multiple lines so that the user does not have to enter it each time. But, I have not heard of this issue from any other users.

On the initial screen in BBP_PD, the partner section shows the following:
0000000001 00000039       Preferred Vendor               47C3756071100CCEE100000080F91715
0000000001 00000039       Preferred Vendor               47C3756071100CCEE100000080F91715
I checked both entries and notice the following difference between them:
MAINPARTNER                                                                                Main Partner (For Ambiguous Partner Functions)               (''=Incorrect)
For the second entry, there is an X for MAINPARTNER, where X is = true.
For the other lines on the cart, preferred vendor only shows up once on the initial screen, and the mainpartner has X in the field.
Not sure if this helps or not.

Preferred Vendor & Vendor Issue in SC

Hi Friend's
Currently i am working with Extended Classic Scenario's
Shopping Cart was created with both the field (Preferred Vendor & Vendor) Here Vendor Filed normally creates from the catalog But
Whenever user copied the same shopping carts and user can able to create shopping cart with Vendor & Preferred vendor filed getting updated
Note:
Either one filed should be updated
Can any one tell me what would be the reason?
Thanks
Shrini

Yes shrini. it comes due to OLD PURCHASE ORDER templates.
if you dont want this. end user must have delete the vendor before he order a shopping cart source of supply.
indeed it confuses business too.
step 1 :- create a sc with prefered sos
step 2:- sc goes to cockpit
step 3:- buyer hold a car in the cockpit now you get parter function 19 in bbp_pd 19 .and supplier comes int basic data
step 4:- create a PO from cockpit
sptep 5:- go to OLD Purchase order templates and now u see vendor picked as FIXED vendor .
step 6:- PO created
stpe 7:- check sc sos VENDOR XXX and preferred VENDOR XXXX.
this manner you might confused
Thanks

Preferred Vendor

Hi All,
I am trying to set some of the Vendors as preferred Vendor for a Product category. Could you please help me how to do this? Whats the t-code for this?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Regards

Hello,
To be clear...
As written by Muthuraman, vendor list gives fixed vendors for product categories.
You want to have a preferred vendor for a list of product categories. So, there is no transaction to answer to your request.
One alternative, is to use vendor list and then implement BAdI i mentioned.

Preferred Vendor in SRM 5.0

Hi Gurus,
The set up is SRM 5.0 Classic scenario, the requirement is when user creates a SC , he should be able to select vendors in the preferred vendor field under source of supply and a PO should be created once this SC is approved.
There is a restricted list of vendors which should only be available in f4 help of Preferred vendors.
Question is How to set up this? I have already replicated these vendors in SRM system
Thanks,
SAP PR

Hi
You can do it by BBP_doc_change_BADI for bus2121 by swaping partner function 39 to 19.
39 - preferred vendor
19 - fixed vendor

Multiple Preferred Vendors in Source of Supply -Shopping cart

Hi SRM Gurus,
While Creating Shopping Cart, the requestor need to assign multiple (more than one) preferred vendors as Sources of Supply.
I could able to choose only one preferred vendor. How can we choose, more than one preferred vendor.
Thanks in advance,
Ramkumar

Hi
SRM does not allows this functionality to have multiple fixed vendors for a single line item.
There can be multiple preffered vendors displayed in the search results. But at a time, only one vendor can be assigned to a line item as a fixed vendor.
In SRM system, even if you programmatically using BADI - BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, try to assign more than one vendors to aline item, you cannot order that shopping cart further.
<b>So, not possible.</b>
Hope this will help.

Preferred vendor field

Hello All,
We are in SRM 5.0 with SRM server 550 on SP11, we are going for BR deployment.
In the basic data when the vendor number is entered in Preferred vendor field, the system doesn't holds the vendor and it disappears and gives the error message ' Please enter vendor'
Any pointers for resolving this issue.
Rgds,
Madhan

Hi Madhan
did you enter a vendor in source of supply field
PREFERED VENDOR - DID YOU SEARCH A VENDOR ?
IN BASIC DATA --not . IN THE BASIC DATA VENDOR WILL BE STICKED AFTER YOU ASSIGN A FIXED SOURCE OF SUPPLY.

We are using SRM 7.0, Classic Scenario.
My client wants a list of preferred suppliers that need to be maintained for a product category. So that whenever the requester selects the product category, he should get the list of preferred vendors for that product category.
Thanks

Hi,
How about maintaining "Supplier List" ?
