Describe requirement

Hi,
I am in SRM 5.0 Extended Classic scenario.When i create a PO with describe requirement.I am not able to change region
in the PO,only storage location is changeable .But in limit order I can change the region.
Is it standard?

Christophe-
Excellent suggestion, thank you very much. We are running SRM 4.0, are you referring to BADI BBP_SC_MODIFY_UI? I am using this currently to hide the "describe requirement" link and I see I could also hide the "catalogs", but my question is how would I know that an item has been added to the cart? The badi does not contain the cart information, I'm assuming I would need to call a shopping cart get details function? Can you briefly expand on your thoughts for obtaining cart details.
Best regards,
Shawn O'Connor

Error during creation of SC with described requirement

Dear Expert,
When I try to create SC through described requirement, I am getting error as "Enter the Company Code".
We are using SRM7.0 Extended Classic Scenario.
The employee has the attribute of Company code is maintained in PPOMA_BBP.
Also we dont have any problem in creating SC by selecting Internal materials and Services.
Can any one give their views on this regard.
Thanks,

Hi,
please check the following
1. In the attribute default tick is there for the company code
2. In the shopping cart default setting check for the company code

PO Creation with Describe Requirement

Hello All and Happy Holidays,
I am using SRM 5.5, ECS and I have a couple of questions
1) How can I force the describe requirement to create a PO automatically (I can force the user to fill in price and Preferred vendor but is there anything else we need to do in the follow on document badi?)
2) I want to create invoices for the PO's before the GR is done, but the system is not letting me do that, I have checked th PO and the GR-Bsd Inv field is set, I think it is validating me to create invoice before GR, how can I fix this.
Please let me know if anyone have some ideas.
Thanks and Happy New Year.

Hi Mani,
You can also use bbp_doc_change badi to convert a preferred vendor into a fixed vendor in your SC.
Checking the price field not empty and converting preferred into fixed vendor enable you to create a complete PO.
Please see my answer in this thread :

Shopping Cart creation through describe requirement not working.

Dear All,
         We are in to technical upgrade of SRM 4.0 to 5.0 (CS). With SRM 5.0 we have ECC6 as a backend system.
         On SRM 5.0, we could successfully create SC from Internal Goods/Services & against that shopping cart a PO gets created in backend. But when we try to create shopping cart from describe requirement the system throws following error messages,
1.     Enter company code
2.     No logical system for FI maintained. Inform system admin.
3.     Error in account assignment for item 1
4.     Error in partner transfer
5.     Not possible to calculate tax
Plz, help to solve this error.
Regards,
Vivek

Hi
Try to clear one by one error
What is the company code in BAsic data of SC?
Run a report BBP_CHECK_CONSISTENCY for that user for sc.
Howerver verify these following configuration.
Implementation Guide (IMG): Supplier Relationship Management ® SRM Server ® Cross-Application Basic Settings ® Account Assignment ® Define Account Assignment Categories
Implementation Guide (IMG): Supplier Relationship Management ® SRM Server ® Cross-Application Basic Settings ® Account Assignment ® Define G/L Account for Product Category and Account Assignment Category- here there is a setting Product category, Accounr assigmnment (CC,WS , logical system name anf Gl acount) check it upi.
Most of the data comes from your org structure only. However check it your settings which i mentioned.

Describe Requirement with GL code

Hi
I have manage to coremod the program on describe requirement screen to allow for user to enter a GL code field. Upon "Add Shopping Cart", I used badi BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI to pass the custom gl code to the accounting section as follows:
LOOP AT et_account INTO wgs_etaccount.
    IF NOT wgs_item-g_l_acct IS INITIAL.
       wgs_etaccount-g_l_acct = wgs_item-g_l_acct.
       MODIFY et_account FROM wgs_etaccount.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
My accounting data is populated correctly, but I received the gl code not found on top of the screen. When I drill down into the sc item level and perform a "check", the error is removed.
My question is how could I auto resolves the glcode upon "add shopping cart" button is pressed ?
Thanks

Hi BWer,
Why did you activate badi to get default g/l account in SC? There is no need to do so. It is SRM standard funtionality to get g/l account in SC. You need to follow below steps-
1. Maintain values AS,CC, for attribute KNT in root org plan via PPOMA_BBP. Make CC as default.
2. Miantain g/l accounts in IMG, SPRO> SRM > SRM Server Cross application basic settings > account assignment > define g/l account for product category and account assignment category.
Thanks

Problem with "describe requirement"-function by creating SC

Hi all,
I have a problem by creating a SC with the "describe requirement"-function. If I use this function a regular SC is created and a purchase order is also created with the stauts hold. I do not want to create a purchase order because if the shopper does not find the requested material in the catalog he/she should create a requistion which is sent to to responsible purchaser of the purchasing group. If anybody knows how the solve this problem please let me know.
BR,
Bernd

Hi Bernd,
Go to tcode SPRO>Supplier Relationship Management->Cross-Application Basic Settings>SAP Business Workflow-->Perform Task-Specific Customizing.
There Under SRM, go to the Specific Task and assgin agents based on the Roles so that only users with that role can get the Witem.

Select Preferred Vendor in Describe Requirement not working

Dear all
We are in SRM4.0, Classic Scenario, R/3 4.6c backend
When I create a Describe Requirement and then go to Source of Supply tab to propose a preferred vendor, I am able to search for a vendor (valid for my POrg), to select one but it is not transferred to my SC. Why?
I had the impression that it was working in the past but I am not sure and I don't what I changed to cause the problem
Thanks for your help
RD

RD-
This does seem very strange and it does work in a standard system. Given this it seems that you ought to look for any changes you have made recently - in particular have you done anything in the document change badi that might be causing the source to be lost?
Have you tried the scenario running bbpsc01 in gui mode - does the issue persist in that case? If so check out HTML template changes?
Just my thoughts on your potential problem area.

Describe requirement - extra field?

Hi all.
SRM 4.0, server 5.0.
In the Describe Requirement function, is there any way to add the vendor field directly to the first screen instead of entering it in the next step in the shopping cart? I looked at the SAP notes regarding the customer specific fields that can be added, but I do not believe that Describe Requirement can be enhanced this way.
Thanks for info.
BR
Dennis M

Hi
I don't recommend this approach in your case.
No issues as such in changing templates (For existing SAP provided functionalirty, hiding, dis-abling, etc of fields).
But in your case, you need to design the whole logic for this new custom field, search help, validation, etc yourself, which might become too complex in future.

Describe Requirement Not going to Sourcing?

We have a setting for sourcing active as follows "Soucing carried out for Items W/O SOS" and as per my understanding, when I do a describe requiement, the SC should go to Sourcing even when the SC has supplier since this is only a preferred vendor. In the BBP_PD txn the sourcing indicator is Blank, Why is not going to souring ?

Hi All,
The solution is pretty simple, whenever you do a client Copy, the Sourcing entries become inaffective, and you need to delete and recreate the entries. Now Describe requirement does go to sourcing even after preferred vendor is selected (thats how it should be becuase preferred vendor is not a fixed vendor).
The reason for deletion might be because the entries in sourcing are driven by logical system. and where ever logical system is there, the entries need to recreated.
Thanks.

Make Category id field blank in Describe requirement

Hi all,
When ever we are going in Describe requirement tab its giving us the last used category id in the category id field. I know its getting filled in the global_data_filled.
We want to make this field blank when we go in this tab. Also I can not do any standard code change neither in template.
Is there any BADI by means of which I can achieve this?
any help will be rewarded.
Thanks
Smita

Hello,
There is no badi for this and the product category is a very determining field for the SC. Making it blank with development will cause many bugs and unwanted side effect.
A suggestion is to create a dummy category named "?", set it at default category in user attributes and implement the badi bbp_doc_check_badi to prevent a user ordering a SC with this dummy category.
Rgds,
Pierre

Multiple line describe requirements

I have a question regarding the describe requirement process. We are currently using the describe requirement functionality for requests that are three line items or less, however the business has informed me that they need the ability to do multiple lines, as in up to 100 lines. Given what we have implemented today, our current solution is not going to fit this new requirement. My question is, how are other companies handling similar issues? Is there other delivered transactions that I should look at that might fit this need?
Best regards,
Shawn O'Connor

Hi Yann,
I'm referring to transaction BBPSC01. We are then selecting the describe requirement link. This brings up six fields for the user to enter (Description, Internal Note, Quantity/UOM, Price/Currency, Category and Required on Date). This process works fine for a small number of line items but we need a way to enter 100 line items in a time efficient manner. As it exists right now the user would create their first line, then copy it to create a second line and update the data. This is too cumbersome for a large number of line items. I'm wondering if there is another way that is easier to enter multiple line items.
Best Regards,
Shawn O'Connor

Hide "Describe Requirement" link in SRM 7.0

Hello all, I am working in SRM 7.0 and I need to hide or delete "Describe Requirement" link that appears when I go to Shop section to create shopping cart.
Is there other way to do it that I don´t use BBP_SC_MODIFY_UI Badi?
Thanks in advance
Rosa Rodríguez

Hi Rosa,
Did you check SPRO....SRM Server>Cross-Application Basic Settings>Extensions and Field Control (Personalization)
If it is there you can control the meta data from there.
Else you can enhance the WD Component to hide or delete the UI element.

Enhance Describe Requirement screen

Hi Experts,
In SRM 7.0 for Describe Requirement Screen I want to add additional fields in the Describe Requirement Screen. I could not find any way to customize through field control in spro. Do i need to enhance the Webdynpro screen for Describe Requirement to accommodate this change or is there any other way?
Thanks

Hello Srinivas,
Yes, You add the custom field type partner no to Item structure.
If u debug ONACTIONADD_ITEM_TO_SC method of the component /SAPSRM/WDC_DODC_SC_I_DES
item details are populated and using it account, partners are created.
1, Add custom field in item structure. example :zsupplier_no type partner_no
2, check once when u enter input in your zfield values is getting populated in /SAPSRM/IF_PDO_BO_SC~ADD_ITEM(While debugging)
3, Enchance the post exit for /SAPSRM/IF_PDO_BO_SC ~SOS_VALIDATE, In sos tab you can find the partner no as fixed vendor.(which was entered in describe sc screen)
In exit
CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_VENDOR_GETINFO'
EXPORTING
partner = cs_item-zsupplier_no
x_with_name = 'X'
TABLES
vendor_set = lt_vendor
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
READ TABLE lt_vendor INTO ls_vendor INDEX 1.
ls_partner-partner_fct =' 0000019'.
ls_partner-p_guid = cs_item-guid.
ls_partner-partner_no = ls_vendor-partner_guid.
ls_partner-partner_id = ls_sos_list-vendor_id.
me->guid_create( CHANGING cv_guid = ls_partner-partner_guid ).
APPEND ls_partner TO ct_partner.

Describe requirements - role specific?

Hi experts
Do someone know if it is possible to make "Describe requirements" visible / unvisible depending on roles?
The users with the employee role must not have the possible to use this sort of buying (must be invisible) while the users with a purchaser role must have.
Thanks in advance

Hi. The way to do this would be to create a custom authorisation object called "Describe requirement allowed" or similar and add it to the roles you want to have access to this.
Then use BADI BBP_SC_MODIFY_UI to check this custom authorisation object and hide the describe requirement option IS_SCR_ITMCHOICE-SPECIAL_REQUEST = '' if the authorisation check is failed.
Regards,
Dave.
