DELETE LIMIT CONFIRMATION IN SRM

Hi Experts,
I have a urgent question regarding GR in SRM. We are using SRM5.0 in classic scenario.
I was creating a limit shopping cart, with follow up actions confirmation and invoice.
Afterwards I confirmed the GR for the limit position. Now I want to delete this limit confirmation again. For normal GR it is working fine, but for the limit confirmation the "Delete-Button" is inactive. Is this standard or did we forget some settings?
Thanks in advance,
Martina

Hi Martina,
In case of Limit Item when you select Confirmation and Invoice SRM creates backend PO with item catagory D (Service) and when you do confirmation in SRM for such item system creates Service Entry Sheet> Auto Acceptance of SES>Post auto GR.
When you go to process GR, Delete button is disabled. Check which Service Pack you are on?
Before Service Pack SAPKIBKT07 this button was enabled but it use to do nothing after clicking on it. With SAP Note Number 985179 (Part of Support Pack 07) this Delete Button was disabled.
If you are on SP 07 and does not have SP11 then implement SAP Note Number 1080634 . This note enables the Delete button in transaction Process Confirmation for such items. There should not be any release strategy for service entry sheet in backend. There is one more note number 1019832. You need to apply this too to avoid another error.
This should resolve the issue. Pl. award full points if helpful.
Thanks

Removing/Deleting Errored Confirmations from SRM 5.0 EC

Hi,
I would like to know how people remove or delete SRM (5.0) Confirmations that end up failing (Error in Process) in the replication process.
We have scenarios where our end users will create multiple SRM Confirmations for the same reference document if the initial one fails in the transfer process. The if they canu2019t figure out why they are failing, will resort to ML81N in the backend system to complete the process.
The end result is we have multiple SRM u2018Error in Processu2019 confirmations for the PO that we would like to remove from the SRM system.
We havenu2019t found a standard way of removing them from the system, is there a method we could use to remove/delete them?
Thanks,
Jerry

Hi R/Reddy,
thank you for your suggestion.
I coded up a program using the function module and it can be used to delete Confirmations.
The thing that I'm unsure of and worried about is that if I delete the errored Confirmation from the system using this low level function module I'm bypassing application business logic that maintains the document integrity.
Have you used this technique to deal with this type of a problem or are you just saying that this function module is available to delete confirmations?
If these 'Errored' confirmations didn't create any documents/transactions in the backend system and since they appear to not be associated with the PO and item in the PO Item Follow-on Documents display, then are they nothing more that a document that is stuck in limbo due to it's errored status and have no relevant value to the process?
If yes, then is that the only place that the document needs to be deleted from?
Thanks,
Jerry

Posting period issue while deleting a confirmation posted for a limit PO

Hi ..
I am facing an issue whiel deleting a confirmation posted for a limit PO.
Confirmation was posted for a limit PO in SRM and it created a service entry sheet in SAP. If I deleted that confirmation in the same posting period, then it is getting deleted. No issue here.
But if I deleted that confirmation in the next posting period then the reversal document is going to error in process. RZ20 is showing the error "Positng only possible in periods 2012/2 and 2012/3".
Posting date of reversal document is current date only and the backend posting period is 2012/3, but still it is failing with this posting period error.
If I tried to delete a confirmation posted for a normal PO then I could able to delete it even in next posting period by just changing the posting date.
Why this posting occurs while deleting the limit confirmation, even through the posting date is falls within the backenn posting periiod? Is it like, SAP system is trying to delete the service entry sheet in original posting period? Kindly help.
I am in SRM 5.0 (server 5.5) SP12.
Thanks,
Arun

OK.
Well, if the variable is not used in any interval selection, then I would say "something happened to it".
I would make a copy of the query and run it to check if I get the same problem with period 12.
   -> If not, something is wrong in the original query (you can proceed as below, if changes to original are permitted).
If so, then try removing the variable completely from the query and hardcode restriction to 12.
   -> If problem still persists, I would have to do some thinking.
If problem is gone, then add the variable again. Check.
   -> If problem is back, then the variable "is sick". Only quick thing to do, is to build an identical variable and use that one.
If problem also happens with the new variable, then it's time to share this experience with someone else and consider raising an OSS.
Good luck!
Jacob
P.S: what fisc year variant are you using?

Error while deleting/cancellation of Goods Confirmation in SRM

Hi All,
We are using SRM 4.0 & SAP R/3 4.6c in classic scenario.When we try to delete/cancel goods confirmation in SRM we are getting error "PU Ordered quantity is exceeded by xx". I found OSS note 788475 for this, but this note is already applied in the system.
Please tell me how to overcome this issue.

Hi MontyBurns,
May I know what settings that I need to check in UGMDSYNC program? As far as I can tell, there is only one parameter that we need to specify in the program i.e. Field Name. As I am trying to synchronize from BCS to BW, I have chosen the followings settings:
Source = LOCAL
Target = ALLBW
All,
Interesting thing that I notice after executing the UGMDSYNC program is the following message:
Synchronize/Display Variances Between Systems
     The compound dependencies for the attributes or texts are not defined
     uniformly in the systems investigated.
     Example:
     Texts are defined as language-specific in the local systems and as
     language-independent in remote systems (for example BW systems). The
     same can apply for other compounds such as version or time dependencies.
System Response
     The display of differences between the systems will be affected. A
     manual synchronization will not be completely successful.
Procedure
     1. Ensure that the dependencies for the attributes and texts are the
         same in all systems.
     2. Start the synchronization process again.
Procedure for System Administration
I can check the attributes and texts in BW via RSD1 by specifying InfoObject = 0COMPANY and checking the Master data/texts and Attribute tabs. But how do I check similar settings in BCS Workbench? I can't determine whether the Company text is language-dependent or not simply by displaying specific Company from Process View > Master Data > Consolidation Units > Company.
Thanks.

Account Assignment category in Limit order confirmations in SRM 4.0

Hello
We are using SRM 4.0 in extended classic scenario.
When entering the confirmations for limit orders in SRM, users add the limit/ service items.
After SP14 recently, the " account assignment category" is not set in the added lines , same as the
PO .
Rather the account assignment category is the first one from the available list.
Any suggestions / notes for this issue?
Regards
Kedar

Hi,
1. In customising (SPRO) in R/3 you need to create the corrpesponding account assignment category with the relevant fields specified.
2. In customising (SPRO) in SRM you need to create the new account assignment category and specify it as active plus the backend system reference. You can then assign the cost assignment types that are applicable and those that are mandatory.
I haven't got access to a system at the minute so can't give you the menu paths in customising but for R/3 it is under Materials Management > Purchasing and then look for Account Assignment. For SRM it is in Cross Application Components and then look for Account Assignment.

Chris

Can we delete a confirmation done in SRM ??

Hi All,
Once we have created a Confirmation in SRM against a PO, is it possible to delete it directly
(i.e. without doing a Returns Delivery) ??
Thanks,
Ruchika

Hi Ruchika,
When ever you want to delete a confirmation , you can post the cancellation document for the confirmation which in turn deletes the confirmation posted. You can either perform a cancellation for the complete quantity or partial quantity.
Hope this answer helps.

Deleting Limit Items on PO even though follow on documents exist

Dear SRM Experts
I am hoping someone can explain the below behaviour:
Where PO's have follows on documents i.e. confirmation and /or invoice you cannot delete PO's items on a PO. This makes sense.
However we also have PO's with Limit items(created via limit type shopping carts) and even though the PO's have been confirmed and invoiced we can still delete the items on the PO. Is this standard behavior or a bug?
Why then can you not delete normal items but can delete limit type items where follow on documents have been posted for a PO?
Thanks
Nishad.

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?
Incase of Limit Items, it is a bug.
We have raised a similar issue with SAP some time back and still waiting for SAP to get back on this.
Hope this will help.

System status INCM is active while doing the confirmation from SRM

Hi,
User is getting the below error while trying to create confirmation in SRM for some of the PO's.
Partner XXX not found
System status INCM is active (Confirmation XXXX)
Partner not found XXX (Item 1)
The version is SRM 4.0 (Classic scenario). We have already checked the user profile and it is consistent in the system. The BP record for this user in table BUT000 is all fine. User is able to create the confirmation for other PO's. Also we have checked the G/L account for any posting period issue. Everything is fine. The error is coming while user is trying to do the confirmation for some of the PO's.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Warm regards,
Aswini

The error is coming while user is trying to do the confirmation for some of the PO's.
Check these POs to see if any of the partners are invalid. You could do this through "process purchase order" transaction. Sometimes this error occurs when one or several of the PO partners no longer exist, e.g. left the company, etc.

Issue while making confirmations in SRM.

Hi Gurus,
Can any one suggest me a solution for this problem.
This is SRM version 4.0 . The user has raised a Shopping cart in SRM with 4 line items and it got appoved and created a PO sucessfully in the SAP R/3 system.
Now the user has changed the PO quantities in the SAP R/3 system and now trying to do the confirmations against that PO for the quantities he has received, i.e he has now tried to do confirmations for the 2nd Line item and it gave an error saying that Error in process. which is diplayed in the shopping cart history.
Now when he is trying to do the confirmations for anyone of the Line item in that PO. System gives a POP -UP message saying that
" ** Document is in transfer for Puchase order, creation not possible **".
Can any one suggest how to get rid of this error message and perform the confirmations in SRM against this PO , if this is not possible then we need to do it from SAP R/3.
Regards
Srujan.K

Hi Muthu,
Thanks for your reply.
Just wanted to clarify you on background of it. we are using the classic SRM 4.0 version and the PO in the SAP R/3 is the leading PO so I cannot change the PO in the SRM.
However the PO hwich has been changed in the SAP R/3 system I can see the updated quantities and while user trying to do the confirmations I can see the updated quantities in SRM at line item level.
But I am not able to find the Idoc number for this confirmation and I have gone to the BU2023 object in BBP_PD and could check there the object key is not updated but core key is updated and I can see the error in transmission.
This error is when the user is trying to make confirmation first for the line item 2 in the PO. But now the system is not allowing to do the confirmations to any of the line items and now displays the error as
" Document is in transfer for PO , creation not possible"
I even have checked in SM58 in the SAP R/3 system no entries I could find.
Regards
Srujank

Best practice to delete a User in SRM.

Can some one tell how we can handle a situation where we have to delete a user from SRM, but make sure we don't have any open procurement documents. SRM server 550
Here is my issue:
1. Users are replicated to SRM from ECC via ALE
2. Whenever a user is terminated from the company a user update from ECC will delete the user in SRM.
Appreciate any help and will give points

Our business process for removing users from our SRM 5.5 system
1. TCode SU01 expire the users licence and lock the userID.
2. Also in SU01 remove the users email address esp if using off line mail processes
3. Remove the user's roles using PFCG
4. In the SRM Org Structure we have a node for de-activated users not attached to any Company code - we move them to that node and change the assignment description so we know where they came from - this is our Audit requirement.
5. In the Org Structure remove any attributes concerned with approval of cost centers/orders etc. Also change their Approval Value level in Extended attriutes to zero.
6. If the user was an approver check SWI5 to find any uncompleted workflow items
7. Use SWIA to re-route those items to an appropriate approver
8. Check for any user substitutes active or passive and remove them, we wrote an ABAP application for this as we could find no suitable SAP transaction. You could log on as the user and do it that way, but if the user is a substitute for someone else you cannot.
9 If the user exists in the back end ERP system, de-activate in SU01 as steps 1 & 2 above
10 Check if there are any workflow in ERP.
We never delete users as this will cause problems with any documents that they worked on for ever and ever and ever...
With this procedure sometimes - not very often - they return to the organization and they can be re-activated.
Hope this helps you and others

Reversing a cancelled confirmation in SRM 4.0

We are currently running SRM 4.0 in an extended classic setup. We have had many questions about reversing a cancelled confirmation in SRM 4.0 once it has been cancelled.
Some user who are very familar with SAP recognize this functionality extend in SAP but are seeing that this is not the case for SRM 4.0.
Currently when a confirmation has been cancelled in SRM 4.0 is there any way to reverse the cancellation? Is this functionality available in SRM 5.0?
