Difference between SRM and SNC

Hi all,
i frequently get this question from many of my friends who work on SRM, as what is the difference between SRM and SNC.Because the supplier collaboration part of SNC resemles with few functionalities of SRM.
What kind of industries go for SRM?
What kind of industries go for SNC?
Regards,
Nandan

Hi Nandan
SRM and SNC have few functionalities common.
SUS and Plan driven procurement. Like SNC Purchase Order Collaboration, these are direct procurement(Supplier known).
Where SRM has other business process like Self Service Procurement, where in they can create quotations and then compare and select the best supplier(In direct Procurement)
In SNC we do not support Service Orders, We only support Quantity Orders. Where SRM can support both.
They have other Business process(SAP SRM Supplier Collaboration), where in the solutions and backend systems like SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SRM), SAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Collaboration Folders (cFolders), and SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM), to provide collaborative planning, sourcing, procurement.
Where SNC plays a material monitor here communicating between OEM & Supplier Org
SRM support both quantity procurement and service procurement directly and indirectly.
Where in SNC supports direct quantity procurement.
It is the business need, upon which they select SNC or SRM.

who would be using these in SRM.
Kindly advise.
BR
Sai

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SRM/SRM+Portal - see portal info - SSO access upon a role.
SRM GUI - Application server - DIALOG screens - configuration done here.
SRM Browser- HTM l screens
All your dialog screens are converted in to HTML screens by INTERNET TRANSACTION SERVER . now a days it is in built with srm server.
but beauty here is the end user/purchaser needs just browser to create his request. he does not want any client software on his machine.

Differences b/w ICH & SRM SUS

Hi SAP experts,
I would like to know the differences between SRM SUS & SCM ICH. Both are supplier collaboration systems bundled in two different solutions.
To my knowledge the only difference is, the inventory levels are seen in case of SCM ICH , but whereas in SRM SUS its not possible.
Experts please throw some light on this.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Vasudevan

Hi
Please go through this ->
SAP Inventory Collaboration Hub (ICH)

ICH is the supplier collaboration element covering tigher collaboration processes,
like forecasting, kanban, order management; it supports the production process,
but for e.g. does not cover invoicing. it is different than SUS, which focus
on small suppliers without any systems inhouse and only offers order managmt.
It depends on the environment, if you need SUS or / and ICH.
In longterm the SUS functionalities are planned to be integrated into ICH forming
a new product called Supply Network Collaboration offering all collaborative
processes. - ICH is part of the SCM Suite as well found under Collaboratio Suite
- Installed on a separate Box; from SCM perspective it also makes sense to
separate APO and ICH; nevertheless SCM is a one client environment, like BW
- Documents are available via SCM and Solution Manager; search in the
Marketplace
Please find some info "ICH" in the SAP Service Marketplace. ICH is Inventory Collaboration Hub, Supplier Managed Inventory.
http://service.sap.com
SRM SUS
SRM SUS can and should be used for Indirect material procurement. mySAP SRM provides a fantastic solution for transferring Purchase Orders from EBP to SUS for indirect materials and service items.
If you wish to integrate MM-SUS (which is primarily intended for direct materials) then you will have to use Classic Scenario. But then you will lose all Sourcing functionality in SRM.
ICH/SNC is intended for direct materials only. It does not support free text items or items bought for cost centers.
The ICH Purchase Order process is also intended for small suppliers - this is not a difference between ICH and SUS.
But ICH is only intended for purchase orders with a material.
Therefore the scenario is a deciding factor.
For indirect materials you are probably doing some purchase orders without materials, and these purchase orders can not be handled within ICH.
If you have only purchase orders with material items ICH can definitely be considered - and it is the tool for the future. A drawback of ICH is the master data complexity and this should be considered/evaluated before choosing ICH.

CCMS monitoring of SRM's own XI integration engine

I have CCMS problems when monitoring XI integration engine of a SRM system. The integration engine will not appear in CCMS. I opened a question on SRM solution forum, could somebody have a look at it there. Here is the link to original question and earn your points there:
CCMS monitoring of SRM's own XI integration engine
background: I have previously managed to successfully set up CCMS monitoring for a plain XI system, but there seem to be some difference while SRM's XI only has integration engine and not J2EE engine running. SRM XI Integration engine is in place due to ABAP Proxies used by SRM.

Kimmo

You have to follow the note <a href="https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=00200682500000002442&_EVENT=DISPLAY&_OBJECT=012006153200000552232003&_NNUM=634771&_NLANG=EN">634771</a>
and following this document <a href="https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700004422742005E/XIMonitoringHowTo_01aSR.pdf">How To Monitor Exchange Infrastructure 3.0</a> pay attention to page 34, for the use of a Central Monitoring (CEN) System.
Of course you have to adjust the GRMG in order to have only the ABAP part under monitor.

SRRELROLES TABLE COMPARISION BETWEEN SRM AND ECC

Hi all
i would like to compare both tables SRRELROLES in ecc and srm for any one of SRM Business objects and linked ECC Business Objects for ALL the records not one records.
how .any clue is appreciated.
i followed peter methid but not works for me
the relations are stored in the tables SRRELROLES (this consist the documents) and BBP_PDBINREL (this consists the links):
In the table SRRELROLES are all of the the documents listed (SC, PO, BID...). Each line of the SRRELROLES consist a ROLEID. If you call the table BBP_PDBINREL with this roleid, as a result you will get the link (ROLEID_A or ROLEID_B) to the related documents.
Whit this ROLEID just call the table SRRELROLES and you will get the related document.
I tried in development box . it did not work. let me try other environment

Benefits SRM contracts compared to MM contracts

Hello,
As I'm pretty new in the SAP world (just passed my EBP 5.0 certifcation), I hope someone can help me with the following:
What are the benefits and differences of SRM contract management compared to contract management in MM?
Many thanks!
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,
EBP contracts are used extensively in the sourcing application. When price determination comes into picture, these are selected first. This can also be used during requesting temp labor. All the MM function are available, release orders can be created. Release doc is saved. One imp thing is, you have a chance to work with version controls that can also be linked to workflow and can also be compared at any time to find the status.
Alert events can be triggered from BW via workflow..
Also you have a chance to work with GOA.
Any many more...
Let me know if you need more info..
BTW MM sourcing is very limited. Very difficult to trace the overrun.

SRM Authorisations

Hello Guru's
I am soon to be involved in the build of roles for an implementation of SRM 5.0, I have no experience of SRM transactions, or authorisations and I was wondering if anyone was aware of any documentation relating to this subject.
I have been involved in the build of roles and authorisations for Financial modules and HR/Payroll systems. But I beleive there are a number of differences when SRM is involved.
Thanks
Simon

Hi Simon,
You can download the SRM Security guides (and a whole load of other stuff) from:
http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000401180&
You'll need access to an OSS ID to do it.
