Source of supply in shopping cart

Hi everybody,
We are on SRM 5.0 (classic mode). When we create a shopping cart the system gets all the sources of supply from the backend system.
we need source of supply have to be suppressed all across any shopping cart other than catalog (like internal goods/services and describe requirment).In case of catalog,contract is assigned to the master catalog.
our requirement is in case of catalog items system should create a backend PO other than catalog items system need not to be find any source of supply from bakcend and it should alaways create backend PR only.
so i have activated sourcing via vendor list and did'nt create any vendor list at all. This ensure that no source of supply is assigned from the backend and also no source of supply assigned from the vendor list as well. so that in case of catalog, source of supply is assigned from catalog and its creating a backend purchase order but when i have changed the location or purchasing organization in shopping cart, system is reseting source of supply for the catalog items as well.
As a result for source of supply is cleaned for the catalog items also,
Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Mani

Hi
Which R/3 version are you using ? Please specify clearly, what you want to do ?
Incase i understand you correctly, you want to reset the Vendor details, coming from R/3 backend in the SRM side.
Have you tried implementing the Business Add-Ins to meet your requirement.
Try implementing the BADIs
<u>BBP_SOS_BADI
BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI
BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK
BBP_TARGET_OBJTYPE
BBP_TARGET_OBJECTS</u>
Note -> first read the standard docuementation provided by SAP, before implementing the BADI using SE18 Transaction.
Alternatively, check whether these SRM configuration settings, might help you out as well.
SRM SPRO Configuration settings
SPRO -> SRM -> Cross Application Basic settings -> Define Objects in Backend System(Purch reqs, Purchase orders, Reservations...........................)
For more details, refer to this link ->
Re: Setting to create Whether Pur. request or Purchase order in R/3 system
Hope it will help.

No Requisition Found in Assign sources of Supply, under central function

Steps followed:
1) PR is created in ECC prod 1000000262
2) Through SRM after selecting the PR we selected Collective Processing
and then transfered to sourcing cockpit. We got the green message
transfered to sourcing.
3) We tried to access the same PR in Assign Source of supply in central
function. But we could not access the the PR. The message is "No
requisition found; verify your entries ".
Any clue or solution to this Issue. ??
Thanks in advance

Assign Source of Supply at Header Level of SC for single Supplier

Hi Team,
We are in SRM7.0 and EHP4.
The requirement is : User is creating a SC for 50 line items to a single supplier. In SRM7.0 User not able to find the Button Assign Source of supply at Header Level. I know it is at item level and it is very painful from user point of you going to individual line item details and assiging the same Source of Supply 50 Times.
The design is Once Source of supply assigned. It leads to Auto PO after SC status changes to approved.
Please tell is there is a standard SRM7.0 Functionality to handle this requirement with out any BADI / Enahancement.
If not above, please tell how to enhace the same.
Thanks
Giri

Hi Masa,
As I Mentioned in my Initial thread. We are using Auto PO. Once the Shopping cart under go 2 step Approval Process. Once the status is completly approved, Auto PO is created.
Pre negotiated vendors for product commedities are available for the SC requestor to select and the list of supplier to Product commedities is available to requestor.
Request Process (SC) is mainly used from approval point and from analytics (reports) point.
1 st step approval - Finacial Approvers approve the SC.
2ns Step Approval - Buyer check the Price in SC as per Vendor Negotiated rate and Approves and Approved staus SC result in Auto PO to Vendor.
Business do not want change the above process and it is configured as per business and delivered. Only difficulty they are faceing is when creating SC for Same vendor with multiple line items. They need to go Individual Item details and assign the source of supply. It is pain full for them. If the SC is created for multiple line items to same vendor. They want to assign the vendor at header level of SC, Instead of going to Individual item and assign the vendor in SRM 7.0
Thanks

Assign Source of Supply User Exit with Quota Arrangements in ME57 and ME56

Hi there,
We are using Quota Arrangements to define Vendor rebate levels and we have enabled User Exit EXIT_SAPLMEQR_001 to provide a more informative popup to replace standard Source of Supply popup as need to display current allocation quantities and % allocation fulfiled.
This User Exit is invoked during Assign Source of Supply during PReq processing (More precisely during Assign Source of Supply in ME51n and Automatic Source of Supply in ME57 and ME56) which all works fine.
When used in ME51n and Source of Supply Assigned and PReq saved, the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is successfully updated with the relevant amount
When using ME56 or ME57 to Automatically Assign source of Supply via the PReq list, the User Exit is invoked correctly and on selecting Vendor and saving the PReq is update correctly, however the allocated quantity against the valid Quota Arrangement (EQUK-QUMNG) is NOT updated with the relevant amount
I have searched SAP Notes and debuged with limited success but cannot find evidence as to why this difference is happening - I assume that it has something to do with User Exit but any advice gratefully received if anyone else has experienced this issue?
Ben

Hello Jerry,
source will be determine based on the following points:
Outline Agreement
Info record
Quota Arrangement
Source List

Assign Source of supply is not working for contract with material group

Dear Experts,
I have searched all the threads and gone through before posting my query. So i would ask moderators to go through the thread properly before rejecting this.
We have value contracts with respect to a particular material group without material and with item category W in the contract item, Please note that for the materials with this material group, the source determination is not set and source list is also not maintained.
When we create PR for the material with this contract, and when we click on assign source of supply contracts used to get popped up, but recently from few days, when we click on assign source of supply we are getting an error " no source found for this item ".
Can anybody help on this.
Regards

@ Biju,
As mentioned earlier, we are not creating PR with reference to contract.
first we are creating contract with item category W (material group), without material and plant details.
we create PR with or without material with account assignment K and with the material group in the transaction ME51N, and after inputting all the fields, we click on assign source of supply, it was proposing the existing contracts with respect to material group earlier, but it is not happening for particular material group(it is working for all other material groups)
Hope it is clear.
@ Dev Patra,
we are using DIEN-Service material types and we assign that particular material group to only service material type.
we have not ticked, source list in the material master, we donot have any source list for the materials under that material group.( please check the note 457110- question number 14.)

Assign Source of Supply for Services

Hi,
I understand that Materials has source list and the system can actually suggest possible vendors for the material via t-code ME25.
However, I am now dealing with services with service master defined and service conditions maintained. I can create PR via ME51 and assign source of supply but I can't do this for PO via ME25 as that is catered for materials only (even if I entered item category D, it shows as a material PO).
My question is, is there any default SAP transactions that allow me to create a service PO with the Assign source supply function? If no, what kind of enhancements can I look into to achieve this?
Thanks!

Hi,
In a normal PO there is no auto assignment of sources so I am not sure why you think that there might be for a services PO?
Remember that to create a PO, you have to specify the vendor first, so how can it assign a source automatically if you have to manually enter the source before you can do anything?
If you are creating a PO with reference to a requisition or contract, again there is no auto source allocation because the source is being taken from the requisition.
So you need to try to allocate the source to the requistion and not the PO

Assign source of supply in PR from SO

I have a PR that automatically created from SO.
I have already created outline agreement for each material in PO and created source list (with fix indicator) too.
But when I click "Assign source of supply" button in PR, system ask me to choose between outline agreement and info record.
If I create PR manually with the same materials, the outline agreement will be assigned immediately after I click "Assign source of supply" button.
Is there any master data or config that make these PRs act differently?
Thanks for your help.
Duangsamorn.

Hi Duang,
When you create the PR manually , guess that you are not selcting the source list check box ( tick
in the ME51N screen ),hope this should be the reason for the difference in behavior.
Please select the tick box when you create PR in ME51N, then the manual PR also will not auto select
the Vendor. Please test & confirm the behavior after check box selected.

PR - unable to assign source of supply

Hi,
I have created purchase requisition and tried to assign source at "Source of supply" tab at item detailed section. But it's already graded (display only) out.
I have checked the "Screen Layout at Document Level" also. It was in optional mode only.
How can i make it as optional entry.
Could you pls guide me.
Thanks
Anilkumar Dalai

Hi,
What i can understand is that you have created a purchase requisition and now you want to assign a source for the item through auto source determination in PR change transaction(ME52n) by clicking on the assign source of supply tab in the item details in source of supply tab page.
If its so Pl. check in the check box " source Determination" at the top next to the PR No. and then try.

Proposed vs. assigned source of supply

Hello Experts,
I have the following scenario:
We are using SRM 5.0, extended classic scenario and have a requirement in which a material without an SAP number is selected from a catalog (something similar to a 3rd party catalog).
However, each material in this catalog have all the information needed such as price, vendor, description, etc.
However, when this is sent to the shopping cart, the vendor is assigned as a proposed source of supply, instead of an assigned source of supply. Because of this, this requirement is sent to the Sourcing Cockpit, which we don't want to to, since all information needed is already there, and is should automatically create a Purchase Order.
Is it possible to do this?
If so, which BADI's should we use?
Regards,
Gilberto Gallardo

Hi
Using BBPDOC_CHANGE_BADI, we have done this several times._
Also, we can go for BBPCATALOG_TRANSFER BADI..._
Please go through the links below for more details ->

Assign Source of Supply - Inforecord

Hello guys!
Do you know if can be possible to assign a source of supply at a Purchase Requisition but where the inforecord isn´t brought too?
Is there any IMG activity where i can customize this?
Now, if an inforecord exists for a certain vendor-material and i press "Assign Source of Supply" button, this inforecord is always showed.
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards,
cecil

Hello,
Please maintain source list .
You define source list requirements at plant level. If a source list requirement exists, you must maintain the source list for each material before you can order it.
The source list serves:
To define a source of supply as "fixed". Such sources count as preferred sources over a certain period of time. For example, the fixed vendor XXXX for material 100XX is ASA Company for the first quarter and BSB Co. for the second quarter of the year.
Select the plants for which you wish to specify a source list requirement
You use the source list to determine the valid source of supply at a certain point in time.
The source list contains all the sources of supply defined for a material and the periods during which procurement from these sources is possible
Following T/Code activities in Material Management module.
Maintain source list - ME01
Display source list - ME03
Display changes to source list - ME04
Analyze source list - ME06
Reorganize source list - ME07
Generate source list - ME05
Display source list for material- ME0M
you make the system settings that are necessary for purchasing operations carried out using source lists.
Source list requirement for materials, It may be necessary to include possible vendors of a material in the source list before the material can be ordered.
The Source list requirement field in the purchasing data of the material master record indicates whether a source list requirement exists for a material.
You can define the Source list requirement at plant level in IMG. Logistics -->Materials management --> Purchasing --> Source list.
Here you can see the plants for which a source list requirement exists.

Validate (check) after PReq assign source of supply with ME57

Hi,
I want to know if it is possible to control or check the PReq after assign source of supply with ME57. My explanation, I have a release strategy on the u201CSource of supplyu201D if it is null. When I create a PReq with the MRP by default the release strategy appear because there is no Source of supply. If I go with ME52N and put a Source of supply my release strategy disappear but if I use ME57 to assign the release stay there until I use the transaction ME52N to control(check) it. Do you know if it possible to force the control(check) with ME57?
Regards.

Hi Duang,
When you create the PR manually , guess that you are not selcting the source list check box ( tick
in the ME51N screen ),hope this should be the reason for the difference in behavior.
Please select the tick box when you create PR in ME51N, then the manual PR also will not auto select
the Vendor. Please test & confirm the behavior after check box selected.

Requisition - Assigned Source of Supply field

Hello,
Please could someone advise how the Requisition Assigned Source of Supply field (EBAN-ZUGBA) gets populated. I am particularly interested in how it would get populated in a MRP created requisition.
Thank you,
Kind Regards,
Jackie Jones

Hi,
I have just tried this in our system and found some that did not have the flag set (I checked for MRP generated requisitions where the Assigned was equal to spaces and the fixed vendor flag was NOT equal to spaces)
There were not many but I was suprised to find even one.
It might be better to change the code used in the workflow to check for the presence of a fixed vendor or agreement instead of relying on this flag.
I will have a look to see if I can see why it is not set sometimes and I will let you know if I find anything.

Unable to assign supplier in shopping cart for services in SRM 7.0 SC

One particular user is Unable to assign supplier in shopping cart for services in SRM 7.0 Shopping Cart. There is no difference in the roles assigned to him. He is able to assign supplier for materials but not services. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Sanjeev

Hi
From where he is buying the Services - free text or catalog or service masters.
Do you have other users having same problem?
Have you built a custom role in your landscape. Assign SAP All to his role temporarily and see if that happens again. If so, activate the Trace on his id and ask him to order a service SC to find out where he is missing the authorizations....
