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?
Regards.

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,
IváHi 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.

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?
JoshYes 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.

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,
RajuHi
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.

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,
TedHi 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

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. -
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.

Hi SRM specialist
<u>Scenario:External system --> SRM</u>
Now we are examining how to do the Interface.
Firstly PO data is created in External system and this data will be needed to transfer to SRM.
<u>Question</u>
What can we do when we will do the Interface from External system to SRM?
(IDOC? XML? FTP?)
Please tell me about it.Hi,
As far as I know if ur talking with SAP with SAP system than connection would be RFC and the communication in the ALE IDOC right.
But if ur talking with SAP with NON SAP system than the connection would be through some middleware like XI.
Note:- But in some case u can pass your SAP IDOC into XML format to the other NON SAP System provided that the system should be in programmed in such a formate that it can understand and mapped the details as per the business requirement.
See IDOC can be send in different format right like.
1) Files Formate,
2) TRFC Formate,
3) XML File,
4) XML Http,
5) CPI-C,
6) ABAP-PI
Is this is the ans ur looking for please revert.

External requirment number (PR #) in backend Service PO
Dear All,
We are implementing classic scenario with simplified pricing on SRM4.0 and ECC6.0 as backend.
During strategic sourcing scenario i.e. for Bid Invitation out of external requirement (PR transferred from R/3 to SRM ),when we trigger a PO system doesn't populate the Purchase requisition number in backend PO for service items.
In case of material items system populates PR number in backend PO.
Please throw some light on how to get the PR number populated in the service PO.
Kindly write back.
Regards,
Nilesh SwamiHi. Just configure the same types for Req and PO in the backend, that is the easiest solution.

External Requirements and local Product Categories
Hi all,
please could you assist:
We are running SRM 7 with several ECC backends in ECS.
We would like to transfer ext. requirement from one backend to SRM (via BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER).
No problems so far.
Prerequisites:
Product categories should only be maintained local in SRM (no r3MATCLASS).
Idea for Solution:
Use of BADI PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2 and BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI to use the internal product category for replicated materials and for the Inbound external requirements
Questions:
If we now transfer an external requirement from ECC to SRM (including a product), how does SRM behave (STANDARD)?
Is it mandatory to obtain the replicated product in SRM including the backend product category?
That would mean, we have to replicate the product categories from ECC as well and could not map the incoming requirements to "our" SRM interlanl product categories?
Any experience concerning standard SRM checks for external requirements?
Thanks and best regards
AndreasProblem solved
We have just mantained local product categories.
Replicated products (from ERP) are automatically switched to these local categories -

CUF fiedls and external requirements
I am currently working on the external requirements proxy to bring legacy requirements into SRM.
I have done the mapping in XI to add the custom fields to the proxy structure:
<ExternalRequirementItem>
<UserDefinedExtension>
<Name>ZSRM_REVLEVEL</Name>
<Value>001</Value>
</UserDefinedExtension>
</ExternalRequirementItem>
The value is not passing. In the web I can see the field and add a value and the value passes to the sourcing cockpit.
I have been doing work in BBP_CUF_BADI_2, but as I said I can see the field, input a value and pass it, so I don't think this is an issue.
Has anyone run into this issue or have any suggestions?
Thanks,
BillWilliam,
I am attempting to re-generate the ExternalRequirementCreateIn proxy in SRM to include the additional data on the interface in XI. I am running into an issue and am hoping you might be able to help.
I am able to re-generate the proxy. It did require me to register several objects and structures, but once I did this the proxy did generate.
When I try to activate it I get the following error "The used object, STRU PRXCTRL, is not visible." This stops the proxy from activating.
Can you suggest anything to get around this or have you run into anything similar to this in the past?
Thanks for the help,
