Error updating external requirements in SRM

Hello everybody,
I am working with SRM 5.0 and business scenario Plan Driven Procurement.
I have a problem, when a purchase requisition is changed in ECC 6.0, the changes are not replicated in SRM. We use report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER. In transaction SLG1 (SRM) says that it could not determine the requester.
Do you have any idea to solve this issue??
Thank,
Ivá

Hi raman,
EPRTRANS table is Ok.
For example, we create a PR and the table is populated with this PR. After that, report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER is run and the PR is replicated in SRM as SC.
Then, we change something in the PR in R/3 (for example the quantity). After that, the table EPRTRANS is populated, but when we run the report, the changes are not replicated.

External requirements to SRM

Hi All,
Any idea on how we can achieve processing of external requirements to SAP SRM from Legacy if we are not considering SAP XI or SAP BC.
Thanks in advance
Krishna

Hi,
Get the legacy requirement and text file and post the file entry using the FM BAPI_SCEC_CREATE to create the external requirement into the SRM SC?

Approval workflow for external requirement

Hi,
My company already implements Project System and Plant Maintenance, in which we generate PR from those modules, and the PR will be subject to release strategy.
At the moment we want to implement SRM 7.0 and we're planning to use Plan Driven Procurement scenario for the requirement generated automatically from PS or PM. As we can have a release strategy for PR generated from module PM and PS, can we have approval workflow for external requirement in SRM?
Josh

Yes you can but not by standard (Since itu2019s not out of box functionality), on the other hand itu2019s real simple to do an RFC call to your external system and get the agentu2019s information...
All SRM need is only agent ID (User ID) to which the work item need to be assigned...
We too have same scenario i.e. business want to use R/3 release group determination which they have already... we implemented it and working real good...
Let me know if you have any questions...
Thanks!!

External requirement from non SAP system created in SRM 7.0 Extended Classi

Hello SRM Gurus:
Has anyone created an external requirement using XI ExternalRequirement_Create_In (http://sap.com/xi/EBP). We are getting a E001 "No company code could be determined for backend for product##". I traced the error to FM 'BAPI_SCEC_CREATE' in class "CL_BBPX_EXTERNAL_REQUIREMENT". What I found is that it check the attributes for BUK and updates a table with the backend EEC system. Then it checks if any of the entries match our external non SAP system in our external requirement and since it is a non SAP system none do. Then it sets a return error code.
I configured our non SAP system in the SLD and in SPRO under "Define System Landscape" as a non SAP system.
We are running external classic scenario. We just want to created a shopping cart from an external non SAP system. Source the shopping cart in SRM and create the PO in SRM/ECC. We are not using a product master but creating "describe requirement" in our external system. Our product categories are replicated from ECC and the same codes used in our external non SAP planning system.
If I change the external planning system to the ECC backend system, the external requirement is created in SRM but when I source it and convert it to a PO, it returns a backend error that the external requirement number does not exist in ECC. Therefore it appears all of our data from our external system is correct with the exception of how to deternine the backend company code
According to SAP this should be possible using XI.
Has anyone been successful doing this or can you please advise any OSS notes or documentation explaining how to do this. Please advise if you need additikonal info.
Thanks in advance.
Bert

I have been using itunes on my windows based pc for years but since installing the latest itunes update I have been getting the error message A required itunes component is not installed. Please reinstall itunes. (-42404)

I have been using itunes on my windows 64 bit laptop for years but since downloading the latest itunes 10.7 update whenever I opened itunes the error message 'A required itunes component is not installed. Please reinstall itunes (-42404)'
Itunes would still load and play music in my library and I could still sync my ipod but when loading a CD itunes would not recognise the album/tracks and I would need to type them manualing after uploading.
I have just bought the new iphone5 and went to sync the phone with itunes. itunes recognises the iphone when plugged in via the usb port or when wi fi is turned on but itunes will not allow the phone to sync.
I spent over an hour the other morning speaking to apple customer support and have ensured I have administer right and that UAC is turned off.
I was taken through msconfigure and adjusted the startup tab but still no joy.
In the end I was e-mailed instructions on how to uninstall and then reinstall itunes and component parts.
Now that I've uninstalled itunes when I try reinstalling I get the following messages during the download.
The 1st message is;
'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
When I click ok the next message that appears sometime later during the install is;
Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) Failed to start Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
The options I have are to abort, retry or ignore. If I retry the same message comes back and if I abort or ignore the download continues and I then get the following message:
'Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run itunes Helper. Please uninstall itunes, then reinstall itunes again. Error 2'
After attempting to reinstall itunes only some components were installed however itunes would not open.
It would appear many people have experienced problems with this latest download!

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Error: ipod cannot be updated - the required folder cannot be found

Just purchased a 30 gb ipod, and when connected to my itunes (currently version 7.1.08), gives me the error message that says, "so and so's ipod cannot be updated - the required folder cannot be found." after a bit of updating. The ipod then drops out of itunes, but not windows, for some time, only to return later and do the same thing over again. Any ideas?

i got the same problem as you, but it appeared only after i tried to sync the ipod using another user account in windows.
I have tried restoring the ipod, clearing out the itunes library and reloading it etc, all to no effect.
usually it would just hang there until i reset it, and after resetting, it would work for awhile, before it would hang again.
this is getting frustrating for me as I cant even listen to music on the go like I used to.
anyone has a better solution?
I've tried re-installing itunes too

External requirements from ERP to SRM with ExtendedClassic scenario for PPS

Hi all,
We are having SRM 7.01 system with ERP ehp4, and we have to do PPS ( Public sector Procurement) as part of our implementation,for that we need to activate Extended classic Scenario.
My question is whether we can have external requirements ( Material PR and Service PR) from ERP can be processed in the srm system.
Please help.
Regards,
Raju

Hi
We can use either the CPPR functionality which requires PI/XI to be in place or maintaining the T160PR and T160EX tables in ECC and running the report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER to push the PR's into SRM. In SRM we have to maintain the entry channel to bring the PR's into SOCO.

v5.0.0.423 (Platform 5.1.0.116)

My Ipod mini gives error -47 (ipod cannot be updated, the required file is in use).

When I try to sync my Ipod mini, I get the following error : Error -47 (ipod cannot be updated, the required file is in use). My software is all up to date and the ipod was restored. Nothing helped, how do I fix this? I have a macbook pro.
Thanks

I just tries that,
So you were able to find that setting via Sophos -> Preferences?
It has to be some other process/application on your system that is trying to access the iPod then.

Document contains no items - Carry Out Sourcing From External Requirements

Hello Experts,
I have a problem in carrying-out sourcing in SRM 701 with external requirements come from ECC 6.0
I want to process the requirements into purchase order, everything is OK because I see the line item of requirement is there. But when I check the document, this error occurs
Back-End Error:Document contains no items
Back-End Error:Please enter items first
It seems SRM didn't bring the item displayed to the back-end so it keeps sending error message.
How could that happen when I can see the document clearly contains item?
Appreciate all the answers
Regards,
Ted

Hi Dinesh / Pradeep
Could you get a fix to this issue, we are facing the same error after we have successfully distributed the SRM Central Contract to ECC and then trying to fullfil the MRP generated PR that we used for sourcing
We are in the classic scenario and in the classic scenario, we cannot create a Purchase ORder in ECC from SRM, it only creates local SRM PO
Hence we are doing the following process steps for PDP with PM scenario
1) MRP Run
2) Push the PR as a Shopping Cart to SRM
3) Select the Shopping Cart and create RFx
4) Publish the RFx and Award the Vendor with the SRM Central Contract
5) Distribute the SRM Central Contract to a ECC contract
6) Use ME57 to turn the MRP PR to a ECC PO by assigning the Distributed backend contract as a source of supply in ECC
We are failing step 6
Your answer was below, but it did not end in a resolutuoin
Please let me know the resolution to this step
Regards
Tridip
Your earlier unfinished answer
" How could we disable the error message so that we could create PO in ECC with reference to contract and purchase req. "
- this message is due to standard config we do in ECC for matl grp & pur grp for PR transfer in table T160EX
ECC books the combo of matl grp & pgrp for external system (SRM) and will not allow to process the PR in it.
a procurement profile is allotted in EBAN.
Don't think you can change the message type to Warning or info.

External requirements

Hello SRM folks,
We are on SRM Server 5.5 with ECC 6.0 classic scenario. We have external requirements ( Purchase requisition in ECC) coming to SRM sourcing. In SRM we are creating GOA (Using SRM becuase of document builder) and distributing contract o backend ECC.
We are able able to create PO with reference to contract in ECC. But we want to reference purchase req (Because to carry all the accounting details to PO as SRM GOA does not passes accouting information to ECC contract) along with contract. When we create PO with refereence to contract and purchase req in ECC we get the following error message
Purchase requisition 10000601 00001 can only be ordered in system SRDCLNT301
Message no. 6Q 202, 6Q 203
Could you please suggest -
How could we disable the error message so that we could create PO in ECC with reference to contract and purchase req.
OR
How can we pass the accounting information from SRM shopping cart to GOA to ECC to contract.
Thanks

Error message: "Missing required plugins" - Illustrator CS3 will not load

I am running CS3 Web Prem on Vista, dual core Athlon with 2g Ram.
Illustrator has stopped working - gives error message: "Missing required plugins. Pathfinder Suite." Or it says "Missing required plugins. ArtConverters.aip PDFformat.aip Pathfinder suite.aip Rasterize.aip"
I have tried the suggestions from knowledge base article - I have tried deleting AIprefs; I have also tried in new user account - initially worked but not on opening program a second time. I have also re-installed Illustrator.
Any other solutions?

Glad to hear it.
Not sure what possible nuances to performance or memory management there may be to running in compatibility mode. Since I can't run in any other mode, it is hard to make a comparison.
It seems to run fine though, for me.
There should be a Windows Update that came out in the last day or so that is supposed to address this issue (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947562). At least thats what it says.
BUT, after that fiasco with SP1, I am real reluctant to do any more updates.
SP1 toasted my ability to connect with network resources, external and some internal hard drives, ALL my USB equipment failed to connect anymore. I removed SP1 (uninstalled it per the instructions on the MS KB) but that process trashed the OS and required a complete clean re-install of Vista. A week later I am pretty much back to where I should be (see, my system backups were with SP1. Brilliant, eh?).
Still have to run many so-called "Vista Compatible" applications in this compatability mode though.
