Draft PO in srm 7.0 ecs

Hi Gurus,
Is it mandatory to use the sourcing cockpit to create a draft PO?
what is the difference between a Draft PO and SRM Local PO( created after shopping cart approval)?
we have a requirement that PO needs to be completed and approved by asset manager before it gets routed for other manager approvals(local signature mandates), in this case can we use the Local PO generated to route through the completion and approval process or do we have to use Draft PO?
Thanks in advance
Deepu

Hi,
The difference is a draft can still be changed, it isn't ordered yet and therefore not yet awaiting any possible necessary approval. Draft and saved are maybe most similar however draft isn't a real document status. A local po is an ordered PO that while in approval can still be changed and re-ordered, however after being completely approved it will receive the status 'ordered' and can't be changed anymore.
You could use any workflow per business object, the local po is just as much a BUS2201 document as a draft PO is. To answer your final question; Yes i think it's possible.
Kind regards,
Tim

  • SRM 7.0 ECS TAXWARE INTEGRATION

    Hello Friends,
    Can you please guide me through the settings i need to make for tax calculation using taxware in SRM 7.0 ECS.
    we are moving from classic to ECS . what would be the best practice for the tax calculation? can we directly integrate taxware to SRM or do we have to go through R/3. Please share your valuable suggestions
    Thanks

    Hi deepusrm7,
    We just recently have been doing the same scenario as yourself.  We are moving from Classic Scenario to Extended Classic.  Our ERP system uses VERTEX for calculating tax and determination of the tax jurisdiction code on the delivery address as well as the vendor address with holds the from tax jurisdiction.
    From what I understand so far you have to have at least theVertex system connected to the ERP system so that when you setup the vendor masters, plants and storage addresses that they will get the tax jurisdiction from Vertex.
    You need the SRM system connected to Vertex in the case you want to calculate the tax on the shopping cart and local ECS purchase order.  I think it may even default the tax jurisdiction on the delivery addresses when you set them up but I haven't tested this just yet.
    I hope this information helps.  If you need configuration information I have that just let me know.

  • SRM 5.0 ECS - copy of purchase order to requisitioner

    Hi everybody,
    I have a question for transmission of purchase orders from SAP SRM.
    We have a SAP SRM 5.0 with extended classic scenario. Now we have to send a copy of the purchase order to the requisitioner in the same moment we send the purchase order to the supplier. Is there a solution only with customizing possible or is programming necessary? In case of customizing solution is possible - what we have to do?
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Best regards
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    I am not sure if there is any customization possible for your requirement . Your requirement looks like needs modification of the standard program RSPPFPROCESS. basically in the program where email is sent genarated you will have to put the option of cc in it.

  • SRM 7 ECS : Contract Item in Invoice witout PO reference

    Hello Gurus,
    We are implementing SRM 7 with ECS.
    We create Invoice from scratch without PO reference. In "Add item" we have a very much interesting option called "Contract item".
    Unfortunately this remains desperately gray at the moment.
    We only have Product category local contracts in SRM not distributed in R3.
    1. Does that option work per the standard with ECS?
    2. What would be the required config if yes?
    3. if there is no config do we need to activate a Badi for this?
    Thanks in advance

    As kiran said this feature is available from SRM 7 EHP1
    Contract Handling for Invoices
    You use this function to create invoices with a direct reference to an SAP ERP contract or SRM central contract. The invoice with the contract reference updates the history of the contract in SAP ERP. A release is then created for the reference central contract in SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM).
    To use this function, you must activate the business function SRM, Service Procurement Innovations (SRM_SERVICE_PROC_1).
    Prerequisites
    You have connected the SAP SRM system to the SAP ERP system.
    You have performed the Customizing activity under:  SAP Supplier Relationship Management  SRM Server  Cross-Application Basic Settings  Service Procurement  Activate Service Procurement Innovations .

  • Can you delete PO (Service, Limit or Material) in SRM ECS????

    We are currently using SRM 4.0 (ECS) and we appear to have problems when deleting PO's (Service, Limit, Material) with just one line item.  The PO after having the one line item deleted goes into status Error in Process. 
    My questions are these:
        1.  How do you delete a PO with one line item whether it's a Service, Limit or Material?
        2.  Can a PO be deleted in SRM if there is just one line item?

    You have to delete each line item of the PO in order to delete the PO. Make sure you don't make the QTY and Price fields Zero. You will receive a RZ20 error in process if you are doing this.
    Please assign points if this works.

  • Follow on documents for SC in ECS scenario in SRM 5.0

    Hi all,
    We are on SRM 5.0,ECS.Is it possible that we can have the PO created,Invoice posted and then GR done in SRM?How is this sequence determined and what are the relevat settings to restrict this...i.e. I would like to have the PO done and then w/o GR,Finanance cannot post the invoice.
    Also in terms of accounting,how much control is in SRM?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    Try this
    1. Do not have the GR based Invoice Indicator ticked on in the SRM Purchase Order
    2. Then create an Invoice with reference to the Purchase Order.
    This path is generally not recocmmended as you dont want your vendors to get payments unless they deliver goods to you. Try to sort out the issues with Goods recipients.
    If its a Non PO stuff, then SAP Provides a non PO Invoice feature in SRM though...

  • PO Response in SRM 7.0

    Hi experts
    I am usisng SRM 7.0, ECS and I have a EBP-SUS where I sent purhase orders to vendors, and it sends PO rensponse, all is working and the Po resposnse is created my problem is I want to use the worhflow WS14500001 to auto tranfer PO response to PO if the tolerance check is ok, The problem is I am usisng Process Controled Workflow, and is not possible in PCW, how it could be done, I activated the task in SWETYV but no workflow is started.

    Hi Javier,
    It looks like you have enabled PCW. In fact if you enable PCW you can't track back to ACW.
    Now in your case you create expression & select specific task id to auto transfer PO response; for that contact Workflow/ABAP consultant.

  • GR_NON_VAL flag setting in ECC for  SRM PO

    Hi all,
    SRM 5.0 ECS Sp12.
    When we create a PO with multiple a/c assgt,the ECC PO which gets created always has the GR_NON_VAL flag set as "X".
    Now if I uncheck the indicators "Confirmation-Related Invoice Verification " and "Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt   " in SRM PO,then the PO replication fails in ECC and in SRM I get the below error :
    With non-valuated GR, please also enter GR indicator
    When I check the data which is passed to ECC,the GR_NON_VAL flag is also blank for the PO after the indicators "Confirmation-Related Invoice Verification " and "Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt   " are unchecked in SRM PO.
    Can someone let me know if in ECS , the GR_NON_VAL flag is always passed as blank and gets set to "X"based on ECC settings.If so,which settings in ECC determine the GR_NON_VAL flag to be set?
    Can someone explain the istd behaviour for the GR_NON_VLAg flag in ECC PO for ECS when SRM  PO with multiple a/c assignnment is changed for indicators "Confirmation-Related Invoice Verification " and "Confirm Performance of Service/Goods Receipt   "so that they are set to blank,Please advise.

    HI
    in standard we canl fill the flag GR_NON_VAL in SRM side but
    the itemx structure of PO in ERP system set to space. After this mapping
    BAPIs will be called.
    wa_bapi_poitemx-po_itemx = 'X'.
        wa_bapi_poitemx-no_more_gr = 'X'.
        wa_bapi_poitemx-final_inv = 'X'.
        wa_bapi_poitemx-gr_ind = 'X'.
        wa_bapi_poitemx-delete_ind = 'X'.
      delivery tolerance has to be taken over
        wa_bapi_poitemx-over_dlv_tol = 'X'.
        wa_bapi_poitemx-unlimited_dlv = 'X'.
        wa_bapi_poitemx-under_dlv_tol = 'X'.
      note 644721, the Goods receipt non-valuated should be set according
      to the backend customizing for this we have to clear the x-flag
        wa_bapi_poitemx-gr_non_val = ' '.
        wa_bapi_poitem-gr_non_val = ' '.
    The redetermination will happen in PO create / change process
    (within BAPI_PO_CHANGE and BAPI_PO_CREATE1).

  • ECS Goods Receipt Errors

    Hi,
    i am opening this thread since i couldn't find any threads about that topic and i cannot believe that i am the only one having this issue. In general, the issue we face with SRM 5.5 ECS is that we have a lot of issues with the valuated goods receipt in the backend ECC6. Mainly for two reasons:
    1) we have FI validations in ECC (OB28) in place
    2) we have GL accounts in the material group - GL account mapping, that require a certain account assignment category as defined in the field status group.
    Issue
    The issue is now that during SC and PO creation these validations do not take place. However once the idoc is process and posted in the backend these validations are done and than causing an error. However since our approval of the SC is based on the account assignment category we do not want to change the PO afterwards w/o any approval for this budget code.
    Possible Solution
    As a consquence i thought about kind of simulation of the Goods receipt in the backend, bringing up the error messages already during SC creation to prevent "wrong" SC's from being generated and approved. Would be interested how you would solve this or maybe addressed this issue already?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    There is a function module used to do any accounting validations in SC.
    This FM is mapped in BBP_FUNCTION_MAP (you can view the entries in SM30). 
    You can copy this FM into customer specific FM and add additional validations.

  • Initial load of PO - Migrate PO from R3 to SRM

    Hi all,
    we are implementing a SRM 5.0 (ECS) and we have to make an initial migration of po from r3 to srm.
    Is there a standard functionality (IDOC, BAPI, or transaction) to use for this aim?

    Hi,
    BBP_PD_PO_CREATE is called the very first time when the PO creation starts.
    BBP_PD_PO_SAVE is to save the PO to database.
    BBP_PD_PO_UPDATE is to update the PO after BBP_PD_PO_CREATE. It is not necessary that UPDATE is called after save. It can be called before.
    You can check the function group BBP_PD_PO for more methods.
