Disputed Invoice in SAP SRM

Hi Experts,
I would be very interested to know the way disputed invoices are handled in SRM.
To explain the scenario in bit more detail :
If a user has an ongoing PO and he receives 2 invoices(same quantity and value ) against that PO, user has not done the confirmation yet so invoice is waiting for the preceding document. Now user notices that the first invoice has some error and wants to dispute it but wants to pay the second invoice but if user creates the confirmation, according to the SRM invoice processing algorithm first invoice will go through for payment as it will fulfil the 3-way match but that invoice shouldn't go for payment.
So I just wanted to know from the community that how disputes are handled in SRM in general and what is the process around this. Also, i would like to know your thoughts regarding prioritizing the invoice against which we are confirming.
Regards,

Hi. Bit of a late one this, only just found it out, but there is a bolt on to SRM called "Procurement for public sector" (PPS) and apparently that allows invoice plans in SRM.
I think the bolt on is all designed around extended classic on SRM 7, possibly 5, so that might be the answer.
You do not have to be in the public sector to use the bolt on, but there might be license implications.
Regards,
Dave.

Invoice report in SRM

Hi Experts,
I need an invoice report with below fields. is there any table(s) to get all these info?
Appreciate your help.
Invoice Number
Line Number
Posting date
Currency
Category code
Cost center
GL Account
Supplier
Total Amount (Inc.
GST)
Tax Amount

Hi senthil ,
Check the below 2 reports For a detailed report you may need to contact a BI person or post in the BI forum .
1. BBP_IV_UPDATE_PAYMENT_STATUS :You can use this report to synchronize the status of invoices in SAP SRM with the status in the back-end system. If an invoice in the back-end system has the status Paid, the status in SAP SRM is adjusted; that is, the status changes from Approved to Paid.
Note that invoices in SAP SRM with the status Paid cannot be canceled.
2.BBP_IV_AUTO_COMPLETE: This report checks for XML invoices with the status Waiting for Preceding Document, and whether appropriate documents have been posted in the meantime, and then attempts to post the relevant invoice.
3. BBP_PD_INV_GETLIST FM
4. Use function module BBP_BE_PO_GETHISTORY and pass PO number (I_OBJECT_ID) and logical system (I_LOG_SYSTEM) and E_ITEM_HISTORY table will give you invoice number try BBP_PD_PO_DOC_FLOW with the PO number
5. You may also choose to implement IMS

Backend invoice replicated to SRM for approval

Hello all,
classic scenario, R/3 4.7, SRM 4.0
would like to check if it is possible to enter invoice in the backend, replicate it to SRM where should be checked and approved and than sent to payment via backend?
Main problem is that all company invoices are entered in one hub via scanning into the backend R/3 system so it is not possible to separate which invoices are for SRM and which are for R/3. Requirement is that everything should be entered fist in the backend system.
We are prepared to change scenario if necessary.
TIA
Gordan

Does SAP SRM support accelarated service procurement?

Dear Guru's ,
Can you comment on if SAP SRM supports accelerated service procurement ? My client follows the below business process time to time:
While requiring to perform emergency services (which are also not high valued service), they directly create service entry sheet entering the service performed and create invoice against it in their existing MM system. They donot go for purchase creation and approval process as the effort does not justify the value of the transaction.
Now, since they are going for SAP SRM system, they want to transfer the accelerated service procurement process to SRM system as well.
Does SAP SRM support this business process i.e. creation of service entry sheet or confirmation without any reference to Purchase Order? I donot have any system to check it from myside..
Your inputs will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi
In Std SRM - GR is always is done with reference to Purchase Order
Therefore it is not possible to post GR or Services without any PO
Thanks

Reports in SAP SRM

The client I am working with is on SAP SRM 7.01 with a standalone scenario. Only when the invoice is posted and 3-way match is done, the follow-on documents are created in SAP. This is severely limiting the client to run reports in SAP SRM for day to day use.
The client wants to run the following reports:
Report 1: A report that shows the following columns and can be run in SRM GUI.
Company Code, PO #, Line #, Ordered Quantity, Unit Price, UOM, Received Quantity, Invoiced Quantity
Report 2: A report that shows the following columns and can be run in SRM GUI.
Company Code, Invoice #, Supplier Name, WBS/Cost Center #, Invoice Amount, Invoice Create Date, Invoice Status
Also, the client wants to extend these reports and create new ones based on the requirements.
Any ideas on how to create these reports are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

4.Item details can be obtained
5.Bidder details can be obtained for partner_fct=”00000018”.From table BUT000 the fields partner, name_org1 can be obtained to print the Supplier code and supplier name.

Advantage of using SAP SRM

Hi,
Could any one please explain the advantages of using SAP SRM over MM module. As per me we can de most of the activities in MM except some vendor related activities (and that even if SUS is used).
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lalit

Hi Lalit,
All advantages of using SRM and MM module is in Plan-Driven Procurement documentation on service.sap.com/instguides -> SRM.
Generally planning in APO or MRP in an ERP system calculates the quantity and materials required. This requirement can be transffered to the EBP system. Requisitions from SAP Plant Maintanance or Project System are also possible requirements.
The requisitions are passed to EBP. If the data is complete and unique, purchase orders can be created automatically. If the data is missing, the proffesional purchaser has to complete the missing information in Sourcing or via Process Purchase Orders. An option for the professional buyer is to assign un-sourced PO to an RFQ and send it out for bids.
The proffesional purchaser completes the orders, assings source of supply, add or deletes item.
Once the order is complete it is issued automatically to R/3. XML is the upcoming medium, since the data can be automatically integrated in more and more supplier's systes, or You can send orders by e-mail, fax or print them.
Goods receipt is either done in EBP by supplier via an XML confirmation, by employee who requested the item by general goods recipient or in the backend system. Inventory is updated in backend.
The invoice is processed in EBP manually by the requestor or an accountant submitted by the supplier via an XML invoice, possibly from SUS or backend system.
You can also look in Self-Service Procurement documentation on:

Invoice Functionality in SRM 4.0 Vs SRM 5.0

We are evaluating the Invoice functionality in SRM 4.0. I know SAP has released Invoice Management System for SRM 5.0 but this can also be used for SRM 4.0. I wanted to know if there are any shortcomings in SRM 4.0 invoice functionality. Has anyone used SRM 4.0 for invoices? Any issues using it?... Any input is appreciated.

Hi
You may go thru the link given below, It will provide ultimate details on functionality and configuration with screen shots.
http://www.ficoexpertonline.com/archive/Volume%2003%20(2004)/Issue%2005%20(May)/V3I5A1.cfm?session=
However we have done one thing more than this that we have customized same number range in EBP for local Invoice. So when you have to trace any document you will find same number for Local invoice in EBP and in R/3 MM (LIV)and FI (Accounting Doc for MM)invoice.

Does SAP SRM support recurring transaction?

Dear SAP SRM Guru's,
Does SAPSRM support recurring transaction? In few business scenario like lease of a house, or EMI payment of a purchase, the transactions are uniform and repetitive. So, it does not make any sense to create a PO everytime to make payment to the supplier.
ECC MM does support invoicing plan for such functionality. Does SAP SRM support such recurring transaction in standard? Can you suggest any workaround for that if possible?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Ranjan,
As far as i know SAP SRM does not support recurring transaction or invoicing plan PO. The Alternative for you requirement like EMI payment or monthly charges etc can be met in SAP SRM with Limit cart.
You can create a LIMIT cart with value limit and accordingly keep doing GR for part value.
Thanks

Hi
If you want to use TTE for taxing, then it has to be configured...
Basic config is, defining RFC destination to TTE & defining it as a tax system in the define backend systems in SRM.
For classic, IPC is not required, thus we may getaway with TTE & for ECS being IPC mandatory, we can have TTE as tax system for invoicing not just only of SUS invoice..

Invoice posting from SRM system -ECC mandatory fields data need to be fille

Dear Experts,
I am creating an invoice from external system(SAP SRM) and generates an IDOC in SRM and same is sent to ECC. In ECC for creating invoice we have two mandatory fields house bank(hbkid) and section code(secco). These fileds data is not coming from SRM IDOC so i need to pass these fileds data before posting the IDOC.
I am using EXIT_SAPLMRMH_015 for passing these fields data. I tried to debug the exit but it is not stopping.
I written the below code for this but still data is not filling . I request you to give me your suggestions on this.
DATA: S_RBKPV TYPE MRM_RBKPV OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA: W_SCACD LIKE LFA1-SCACD.
S_RBKPV = E_RBKPV.
IF E_RBKPV-LIFNR IS NOT INITIAL.
SELECT SINGLE SCACD FROM LFA1 INTO E_RBKPV-SECCO WHERE LIFNR = E_RBKPV-LIFNR.
SELECT SINGLE VBANK FROM ZMM_HOUSEBANK INTO E_RBKPV-HBKID WHERE BUKRS = E_RBKPV-BUKRS
AND GSBER = E_RBKPV-GSBER.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
E_CHANGE = 'X'.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Does SAP SRM support below functionalities?

Hello experts,
My client is looking for few functionalities. Could you please help me to find out if SAP SRM or SAP PPS module supports the below functionalities?
1. Variation Order (VO), Extension of Time (EOT) and Addendum.
2. Preparation of Letter of Intent (LOI) and Letter of Acceptance (LA).
3. Bond Management in Contract Management
4. Assent Deed Of Assignment (ADOA) of Contract
5. Liquidated Ascertained Damages (LAD) on Contract
6. Termination of Contract
7. Contract Dispute.
Do I need to suggest CLM/E-sourcing for the above requirement?
Thanks in advance,

I believe you'd need a third party scanning software. SRM does not provide such feature.

Technical Help on creation of an Object in SAP SRM 4.0

Being on SAP SRM 4.0, we currently have a requirement for creation of Need Definition( Basically a build up for the contract ). Need being collected from the Backend systems need to be validated and approved by Buyers & Lead Buyers in the SRM system.
Technically, this task is broken down to below tasks.
1) Creation of need definition screen - Basically a template where a need can be created with Items, Sub Items and other related information
2) Selection Screen for Buyers and Lead Buyers - This enables the the Buyers to select the Need Definition assigned to them based on the status.
3) Report - List of all the Need Definition( Item and Sub Item)satisfying the selection of step 2. with the possibility to navigate to the Need Definition screen ( Step 1) upon selection.
Now the question is,
what technology is recommended for the above Tasks? We thought it would be BSP but do you guys have any suggestions...
Do we have any issues in displaying the report in BSP? please let me know
Remember we are version 4.0 of SRM.
Thanks in Advance..
Mohan.

Even though I don't have much knowledge on BSP, it should be a good option. Since SAP has used BSP to develop new screens in SRM 5.0.

G/L Account mentioned on line level does not get hit in Journal entry on GRPO and AP Invoice in SAP B1 9.0 PL - 11

Hi,
G/L Account mentioned on line level does not get hit in Journal entry on GRPO and AP Invoice in SAP B1 9.0 PL - 11
I am creating an independent AP Invoice, there are two issues:
1. On line level G/L Account field is not open for selection
2. I have then selected and updated the account on Form Settings. Same account gets updated on line level.
In Journal Entry selected G/L account on line level shall be hitted. But it does not put any effect on JE. Accounting is set by Warehouse. It picks up accounts from warehouse only.
Need help its urgent.
Thanks in advance.

Invoice is Item Type.
G/L Accounts are set by Warehouse. But if explicitly we are want to change the account on line level in that case, it is not getting reflected in Journal entry. On AR Invoice same scenario works perfectly. On line level I can change the accounts explicitly and have the effect on Journal entries.
Issue seems to be on AP side only.
As required please find attached the screen shots.
JEwith mapped GL Account on Warehouse
JEwith different GL Account on line Level via Form Settings
Thanks & Regards
