Future of SAP SRM -MM

Hello SRM Gurus ,
Please clarify ... Do you think SAP SRM will replace MM in future or MM will be still avaialable.
As SAP taken over Frictionless do you think the next version of SRM will be integrated product with Frictionless and MM

Hi Naveen,
for a manual on replication of material master data from R/3 to SRM please refer to the ConfigGuide Self Service Procurement on service.sap.com/instguides.
(Chapter Data replication).
when I wrote "dummy vendor" I only thought of the catalog.
The easiest way (which is not the best way for process) on how to integrate your material master to a catalog would be an own catalog of your (backend) material master. For importing the catalog you would need a supplier ID in the catalog system. This would be your company.
The disadvantage of this solution: The users will find a material at least twice.
Once in the catalog of the supplier(s) and once in your "stock material catalog".
Thus it would be better if you could find a person who is able to match vendor master data with your material master data in order to enhance vendor catalogs with the number of your material master.
Perhaps your purchasing department prefers another solution:
Diminishing material master data and work with contracts of product categories (without product ID).
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Felix

Future of SAP CRM

Hello Friends,
I need a very sincere advice with the help of this forum and would really appreciate the SAP folks to open-up and provide your best futuristic and honest suggestion
My Background
I have a total of 7.5 years of experience that includes 6 years of SAP presales support activity. Now when I say presales as you all know it stars from LEAD QUALIFICATION and ends to LEAD CONVERSION and the capacity of work that is involved between these two word is enormous. So far my professional career got totally engrossed into RFPs, RFIs, RFQs proposal preparation, SOW preparation, estimation, client presentation, case study, defining GTM strategy, coordination between different teams (Infra, COE, Sales, Legal.....). Though this role has given me lots of knowledge on the domain (manufacturing, retail, utility, consumer goods...) as well as SAP (ECC, SRM, SCM, CRM, BI/BW.....) but what I think if I can combine my current experience (I call it as domain) with real time project experience in some module of SAP; then it will add more value and wattage to my CV as well as my future career path.
My Thoughts
I am sure there are many professionals like me who have chosen this kind of path for his/her career, but the biggest question comes WHERE ARE WE HEADING TO!!!!!!! --a sales professional, or Bid manager or an account manager there on to practice heads and so on. The answers is yes these could be an option but to be a good solution architect or AM/BM in SAP space i think it is important to be well versed with one of the modules in combination with domain.
Future of SAP
We all know the future of SAP is heading from CAPEX to OPEX market which mean CLOUD is / going to be HOT CAKE for its customer, then comes some of the emerging technology like CLOUD COMPUTING, HANA, Mobility SucessFactors, HADOOP etc. I am sure people will agree that in every human the wisdom teeth comes only after certain age but that doesn't conclude with the downfall of all other 32 teeth and in my opinion so is SAP. With these emerging technologies the backbone of SAP R/3 will continue to exist.
My Questions
The next important aspect comes what combination of modules should a professional like me choose to gain project experience and what is its future/milestone because these days we have been hearing a lot of new technology within SAP space. Please suggest from the below list which I thought could be the probable options
SAP CRM Functional
SAP SD
SAP SD+CRM
SAP SCM (APO, DP, SNP, GATP, PPDS)
SAP IS Retail
Please share your thoughts and suggestion and I am sure it will definitely add value in my decision. I appreciate your thoughts in anticipation

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.

Query on components to be used for SAP SRM Installation

We have a requirement for SRM Server.. I need some help on what installation objects should I download. This is on AIX and DB2
for "EHP1 FOR SAP SRM 7.0 -> based on SAP NetWeaver 7.02"
I'm sure that I'll need :
1) Installation Master
2) Export (SAP SRM 7.0 EHP1 Installation Export 1-3 of 3) 51038765_1
I have queries on this:
3) For Java stack, the component available is BS7i2010 Java Components 1x4 of 4
I have NW 7.3 based EP system. Can that be used for Java or Do I need to install another stand alone Java ?
If it can be used:
- Will it not create problems b'coz portal is on 7.3 and SRM is based on 7.02
- are there any SRM Java specific components in this installation object or is it a plain NW 7.02 Java stack ?
4) What is SAP SRM 7.0 EHP1 Components in terms of functionality given?
5) We need MDM Server:.
For MDM Server: Where do I need to download MDM Server from ? I am not sure If we have license under our S-user.. Can you give me the path where download starts ?
For MDM Catalog :what is the difference in

Portal Runtime Error while performing User Mapping to SAP SRM

Please find below the error I received while User Mapping from Enterprise Portal to SAP SRM :
Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :

See the details for the exception ID in the log file

Hi,
yes, Karsten is correct. Just some background:
"User Mapping not fully available.." finally means that user mapping is configured to use strong encryption, but the main crypto key for user mapping is missing. Usually, that's because "SAP Java Cryptographic Toolkit" and/or "JCE policy files for unlimited strength encryption" are not installed (or the server hasn't be restarted afterwards). The note will most likely help

Approver not determined process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0

Hello all,
I have setup process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0 EHP3 for shopping cart approval.
I have 4 approval levels.
I have used item-based Decision for entire document because for some items i want system approval.
In implementation of BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER, in the method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP, i am skipping the items for which i want system approval.
Also in method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID of BADI implementation class, i am keeping the approver table empty for the step which i want system approval.
For example i have 1 item in shopping cart and for 1st step, based on some accouting criteria, i want system approval for 1st level and the workitem should go directly to 2 approval step when shopping cart is ordered. This is not happening.
But if i have multiple items, and one item should have system approval based on some criteria and the 1st approval level should be system approval and other item should go to the 1st approver. This is happening and showing 'system' approver for item1 and 'appr_xyz' for item 2.
For shopping cart having only 1 item, If i approve the shopping cart in this state only, it doesn't go to any approver and is not usable.
am i missing anything in BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER??
Please let me know.
Regards,
Yayati Ekbote

Hi Adrian,
Yes it is possible to display custom workflows in the Universal Worklist, However, I am not sure what you are trying to do with a routing table. If the workitems are of type decision, you can use UserDecisionHandler (action handler) configured in the XML file to use the Approve/Reject functionality - we are talking about webflow connector here correct? R/3 connector?

Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for responding. Yes, all the backend config are in place since I am able to successfully run an equivalent RFC (BBP_PD_SC_GETLIST) and another RFC named BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL from SE37. The problem seems to be something very specific to the ES. May I request you to run this ES at your end (if possible) and let me know the result possibly with the input and output message similar to the one I pasted in the origincal question.

Integrating with SAP SRM 4.0

Hi all,
I'm currently involved in an e-procurement project that will have to integrate SAP SRM 4.0 with the EAI solution of our company (webMethods).
As I don't know much about SRM 4.0 technology, I'd like to know the standard way of integration with SRM 4.0:
- Is SRM 4.0 capable of exposing IDocs?
- Is SRM 4.0 capable of invoking BAPIs?
- If so, how can a Purchase Order put into the arguments of the BAPI?
- Is SRM 4.0 compelled to talk with XML messages (particularly SOAP XI) or are IDocs and BAPIs a suitable solution?
- Is SRM 4.0 standard output xCBL?
- Can SRM 4.0 expose and invoke Web Services natively?
In other words, I'd like to know whether we are obliged to use the XI Content of SRM 4.0 in order to integrate with webMethods. We have already done integration with R/3 4.6 and we used IDocs with the SAP Adapter. We would like to capitalize on our previous experience and save us from having to assess the feasibility of an integration with SRM via XI.
Thank you in advance for all your answers.
Regards,
/ML

Hi Marcel,
Underlying technology is WAS (Web Application Server) which is an enhanced version of the middleware BASIS technology used by 46C. XI is a replacement for messaging platforms like webmethods, so if you are using webmethods with SAP adaptor you don't need to use XI because you are already using a messaging platform. Only reason you may want to use XI would be if you can build upon the XI content available to you. If you are not interested in the XI content then go ahead and use webmethods using SAP adaptor to connect to SRM. I don't see any problem in that.

Sanjeev

SAP EP 6.0 SP12 Integration with SAP SRM 4.0

Hi Buddys,
When I am trying to create system in SAP EP for the backend SAP SRM Server using SAP Wizard in SAP EP, and testing the connection with test connection option, test is always failing.
In system creation wizard (SAP system for dedicated application server), values for connector, user managemnet have been maintained as mentioned in How to guides for SAP EP and alias for system has been created.
SAP EP has been installed with option to use SAP Backend SRM Server for Users.After SAP EP Installation, all SAP users in back end SAP SRM can be seen in SAP EP.
Software versions:
SAP EP : EP 6.0 SP12
SAP J2EE Engine : J2EE engine 6.4 SP13
O/S : Windows 2003 Server
SAP SRM : SRM 4.0 on SAP WAS 6.4
Your help in this regard is much appreciated.
Regards,
Prasad

Hi Venkat,
When you create a system choose "SAP system using dedicated application server".
The minimum parameters for creating the system are
application host
Logical System Name -
Logon method - UIDPW
SAP System ID
SAP CLIENT
SAP System Number
server port
System NAme
System type - SAP_R3
user mapping type - admin, user
Create an alias, specify the userid and password for the system in Personalization and then do the test for the connection.
Even then if it fails you can go to Sys Admin--> Support --> Sap Application --> SAP Transaction
choose the system, specify the tcode, specify the gui type and hit go. If you execute the transaction code then the connection is OK.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Praveen

SAP SRM Prod with Oracle DB and AIX 5.3 Performance Issue.

Hi Basis Gurus,
Today my SAP PRD system all of a sudden was running slow and users had difficulties executing TCodes as it took minutes before the screen appeared.My system is SAP SRM 4.00, Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 and AIX 5.3.
From Basis point of view , we noticed that all the work process were hanged due to RFCs' occupying it.Couldnt investigate further on the system as we needed to restart asap because users needed to log on. A quick check on SICK shows no errors.What we managed to find out is that we needed to check this parameter below and set it accordingly:-
rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp:-
Definition
Number of work processes kept free for other users.
Use
This parameter is used to reserve a number of dialog work processes for dialog mode. It prevents parallel RFCs from occupying all the processes.
The parameter rdisp/wp_no_dia specifies the absolute number of dialog work processes.
Unit: number of dialog work processes
Default value: 1
Example
If 10 dialog work processes are configured for the instance (rdisp/wp_no_dia = 10) and the parameter rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp = 3 is set, parallel RFCs can occupy a maximun of 7 dialog work processes. Three dialog work processes always remain free for dialog mode.
There are 20 DIA processes in our system, perhaps reserving a minimum of about 5 work processes for DIA users will be useful via the parameter.
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
When we went for a restart of the system we encountered another issue. Steps to the issue are as below:-
1) Did a proper shutdown of Oracle and SAP.
2) When we start using startsap script, it doesn't start DB so we started DB manually but listener was having problem
    so we stopped all.
3) We also did a cleanipc, it too throws below error:-
sidadm> cleanipc <systemno> remove
               exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program cleanipc because of the following errors:
               0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for cleanipc because:
               0509-136   Symbol memmove (number 106) is not exported from
               dependent module /usr/sap/sid/SYS/exe/run/libsapu16.so.
               0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
               'dump -Tv' command.
4) Also the Listener file has no contents,it's null file.
5) This is another error :-
    exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /oracle/sid/112_64/bin/tnslsnr because of the following errors:
    0509-150   Dependent module /oracle/sid/112_64/lib/libttsh11.so could not be loaded.
    0509-101   The module has too many section headers
    or the file is damaged
The libttsh11.so file was empty dated 25th timestamp as below in PRD:-
-rw-rr    1 sid   dba               0 Nov 25 07:12 libttsh11.so
Further checking has let me to understand this is an Oracle Bug from this link:-
http://gavinsoorma.com/2009/12/11-1-0-6-clusterware-upgrade-to-11-1-0-7/
This Oracle bug only happens in an Upgrade time and how could this happen to my Production system during a restart process.
Also this system was restarted during the last weekend's maintainance window and it came up with no issues.
6) We copied over the libttsh11.so from our QA environment to PRD and did a Startup:-
-rwxr-x---    1 sid   dba        65967496 Nov 25 07:40 libttsh11.so (This is the copied over file from QA)
7) After Startup everything has been in order till now.
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before. Hope all the Gurus here could shed some light into my 2 questions as I am looking for positive answers.
Thank you.
Regards,
John

Hi,
Firstly I would suggest you to upgrade your database from Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 to Oracle Release 11.2.0.2 . This is the recommended Oracle 11g database version for SAP solutions. Many of your problem will get resolved with it.
Question 1:
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
For immediate resolution the approach you have followed is correct viz limiting number of dialog processes for RFC. Secondly you need to analyze why RFC processing takes so much time. You need check which programs are getting executed by those RFC.
Generate EarlyWatch report for more detailed view
Question 2:
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before.
The libttsh11.so library cannot be found in the related directory.
Cause
The file system is mounted using CIO option, but per Note 257338.1 Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L, an ORACLE_HOME on a filesystem mounted with "cio" option is not supported.
Such a configuration will cause, installation, relinking and other unexpected problems.
Solution
Disable the CIO option on the filesystem.

Establishing a connection between SAP SRM and MM

Dear All,
I am working for a multi-national company and now we are thinking to implement SAP SRM but I have some questions about communication between SAP MM and SRM. Firstly I want so share with you our as-is status and then my doubts and question that I have.
In our case we have two different locationed organizations which are using different version of SAP system and SAP MM. In this two sap system mostly codes are and descriptions are different for all materials and now we want gather all data and we want to have one global code system and (local code also will remain). I mean we want to call same materials with one global unique code instead of two different codes. We are thinking to implement something like coding center that will take local master data from local organization then will assign global code, update table then with somehow will update SAP SRM.
For example:
We have local master data on R/3 is maintained manually by local user and net item is created locally each country by local user.Coding center will be aware of new creation by mail, automatically. Coding center will update table (adding a new row for each new item) on translator (tool for assigning global code for materials) assign to each new item a global code and category and in this way SRM will be updated automatically based on translator.
I am thinking to develeop a tool (excel,access etc.) that will take new item creation manually or auto from local organization then will assign a global code and category then will update SAP SRM automatically
Regarding to tool I have some questions:
1)     which are the standard communication channel between R/3 and SRM or How they can speak with each other ?
2)     Is there any standart batch file (BI or BAPI) to be able to perform this.Is it possible to develop tool using excel or access etc. which will manage coding task.
3)     When we are trasferring for the first time Master Data from MM to SRM is there any standard transaction?
4)     how the two MD are aligned (i.e. what if a new item is created or modified on MM)?
5)     standard program (transaction) for aligning available ?
6)     ) how this process can be triggered (scheduled using SAP scheduler, event or user driven)
7)     Where the translator (tool) should be (R/3 local, SRM, BW, other) --> Enrichment table
8)     How we can build the communication transaction?
Thank you very much
Any comments and answers will appreciated and rewarded

Hi,
Have you considered using CCM. You generally use an industry standard code (perhaps UNSPSC) in CCM as your vendors would all have different number (similar to your scenario). CCM is a plug-in to SRM, supplied by SAP.
The authoring tool is where you can enrich your catalogue, and have approval dependant on rules that you setup. In your case you would possibly have a catalogue per locationed organisation (or R/3 system). These would then be mapped to a master catalogue, and assigned to users as views. This tool is a BSP on SRM. You could also upload these catalogues from Excel (as a CSV) or through XI as XML. We use the automatic transfer of materials from R3 and then there is a report in SRM to feed that through to the catalogue.
The only thing that needs to be thought through is how you feed the selected catalogue item back to the differing R3 systems, but this shouldn't be a stumbling point.
Cheers

How to Populate Values from ECC to SAP SRM

Hi Freinds,
we have two custom fields in Purchase Requisation ( ECC ), my requirement is to same fields i want to create in SC Item Tab, i have included in tem Tab, but now i want to populate the values from ECC to SRM, can any give me idea how to do this
Thanks
Kumar Srini

Hi,
You need to create two custom fields in the shopping cart corresponding to the two fields in purchase requisition.
After that, you need to map the two fields in ECC to SAP SRM. In srm spro settings, you can find the mapping options.

What is the Role of SAP PI in SAP SRM?

Hello Gurus
I'm from SAP-XI background.
In my project I need to create a scenario from SRM ---> PI/XI ---> MDM.
I'm having the below queries regarding this scenario.
1) Do I need to download the "XI CONTENT for SRM SERVER and import it into PI server.
2) If so what is the exact location in the service market place from which I can download
3) What are the steps that need to be done between SRM and PI and also in SLD so that data will be sent from SRM to PI.
Can anyone answer my queries.
Thanks and Regards,
Pruthvi

Hi Pruthvi,
Mentioned below are the list of output medium for SAP SRM.
1. Email.
2. Fax.
3. Print.
4. XML.
Whenever SRM want to send data to another system in XML format and if you are not using SOA then PI is very much required to transfer the XML data to the target system. When you integrate SRM with ECC 6 EHP 4 or higher version then many documents are transmitted in XML format only and XML document is sent out of SRM using ABAP Proxy.
Since the XML data is sent out via ABAP proxy you have to import the integration objects for SAP SRM into SAP NetWeaver PI. you can find the same in the below location.
https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=00200682500000001943&_EVENT=DISPHIER&HEADER=N&FUNCTIONBAR=Y&EVENT=TREE&TM…
Steps involved :
1. Deploy the integration objects of SAP SRM into SAP NetWeaver PI.
2. Update the SLD with new business system data.
3. Check Active Process Integration in the transaction SPRO in SRM .
4. Go through the below steps :
     1) One RFC of type H to point to PI with all the details.
     2) Define the role of the business system in the server that you want to see(Sxmb_Adm)
     3)Connection between Business System and System Landscape Directory.
     3a)RFC destination LCRSAPRFC of type T for SLD connection.
     3b)RFC destination SAPSLDAPI of type T for SLD connection.
     4)Maintain the SAP J2EE Connection parameters for LCRSAPRFC and SAPSLDAPI in SAP J2EE      Engine
     5)Maintain SLD access details in Transaction SLDAPICUST.
     Please refer the section 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3 and 1.3.4 in the document(as linked provided below)
SLDAPICUST should point to the SLD host server. If you have a central SLD installed on the Dev server, then it is ok that it is using the host and port of the Dev server.
PIAPPLUSER is the normal user that is used in trx SLDAPICUST (the user must have the role SAP_XI_APPL_SERV_USER).
'Lastly, will the gateway Server of SAPSLDAPI and LCRSAPRFC will be the same for both DEV and QAs systems in XI?'
5. Make the necessary confirmation in Integration directory for the relevant interfaces.
