Global trade management - Scenario

Hi there,
We have the following business scenario among 2 company codes. We are wondering how we can automate this with GTM.
------>Purchasing Flow------>
Company code A-->Company code B---> Vendor
<-----Sales Flows<----------
A- Inquiry/Quotation Flow
1. Company code A creates inquiry to Company code B
2. Company code B creates inquiry to vendor
3. Company code B receives quotation from vendor
4. Company code A receives quotation from company code B
B - Purchasing/sales flow
1. Company code A creates PO to Company code B
2. Company code B creates PO to vendor
3. Company code B receives goods and invoice from vendor
4. Company code A receives goods and invoice from Company code B
I understand that it might be possible to use a trading contract to automate the purchasing/sales flow between the 3 parties. Am I right?
1. Is it also possible to automate the creation of the trading contract based on the PO created in company code A?
2. Is it possible to automate the inquiry/quotation process flow?
I look forward to any information that might be useful to automate the trading process.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards,

Hi,
there is nothing like basic setting..there is transaction code WB2B_CUS for customization of GTM..
what ever you want to use customize it and use it..
if there is some specific concern do post..

Global Trade Management (GTM)

Hi All,
Our company is considering GTM for the purpose of registering logistic global trade in SAP ERP2005. We have a few questions in advance. Since GTM isn't widely discussed at SDN this would be a great topic to enlighten some (basic) issues.
1a) In my opinion, GTM can create trading contracts on purchasing side, sales side, or both combined. How does a trading contract technically looks like? Are these seperate MM/SD contracts linked together in GTM reference tables or are these contracts stored in dedicated GTM tables?
1b) Are created 'assosiations' saved in the EKKO VBAK tables under a seperate document type?
2) Secondly, is BW intergration needed? If so, what reporting functionality relies on this connection.
3) Thirdly, what is the fundamental basis of GTM? Is it based on the coverage of purchasing or sales commitments? Or does it have its roots in the financial trade position a company is in, and that its mutual obligations are the basis of GTM?
4) A specific issue we manage to resolve is the fact that it is common in our business to settle trade deals. This one settlement counts for the whole chain of suppliers/customers. That way, it is possible that the result of a purchaseorder becomes a negative value. It is common practice that the receiving party bills the other party. So we need to make sure it is possible to bill suppliers (from MM). Any thoughts on this topic?
Any feedback is welcome. Thanks in advance.
Greetings,
Ivo Voeten

Link of a GTM blog by NOB
/people/nobuhiro.kusumoto/blog/2008/07/22/sap-global-trade-management-gtm
-->yes GTM creates a trading contracts..which can be both sided (SD & MM) or single sided. when we release a trading contract it generates its follow-on documents..whih is standard PO and SO.
tables for Trading contract data--> WBHK, WBHI, WBHF, WBHD...
--> there is a table WBGT which stores the consolidated data..means it stores the trading contract data and its foolow-document data... like trading contract, its purchase order, its sales order, inbound delivery, outbound delivery, goods receipt..
what all document will be created is dependent on the action classes assigned to it in the customization---
Transaction to customization is WB2B_CUS. here you can activate whether all the data should go to WBGT or not...and many more things...infact every thing..this is the custommization ransaction for GTM..
--> NO idea about its BW linkage..
--> i don't think that its stores the association data in the tbales you mentioned... it follow its own tables and might be for some type of data GTM do read the other tables data to avoid the redundancy of data.
--> fundamentally GTM is basically for traders..those to take goods from one organisatio and supplies it to other.. yes that contracts link the purchaser and the seller with an intermediater in between who uses this GTM..
--> it also have a strong features of expenses..which can be planned in advance while creating the contract..
that contract is not for the seller or for the purchaser but its the data record for the intermediter or broker of that deal.
i am not clear with your questions..and i have specifically working on expenses side of the GTM...
if you still have any question do post...if i found your question...will answer as appropriate i can..
hope it helps you
thanks

manu
( PLEASE CORRECT ME , IF I AM WRONG. BUT ANYWAY I WANT TO KNOW THE BUSINESS PROCESS OF GTS. SO PLZZ HELP)
Edited by: manu m on Nov 14, 2008 6:48 AM

Manu,
To find the answer that works best for you, also take a look at some of the other threads in this GTS forum where similar questions were asked.
A good point to start is the SAP Library: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_gts72/helpdata/en/b1/8dc5c62c885046ab71fdcddc6ad2c2/frameset.htm
If your company owns a GTS license you will also be able to download the GTS implementation guides from the SAP Marketplace. The implementation guides will provide step-by-step instructions for setting up GTS.
In the Procure-to-pay process GTS would typically be used for sanctioned part list screening of the vendor and other business partners and to handle import license processing, duty determination and creation of import documentation. SAP-GTS also contains standard interfaces to clear imports electronically with the customs authorities in several countries in Europe and the US.

Configuration Documents For Global Label Management

i am new to SAP Global Label Management, i am working to setup the whole configuration for SAP GLM. any body can provide me the detail configuration Documents.
how to print label Scenarios for bar code labels in SAP GLM (i know from SAP GLM we cannot print bar code labels) .how to trigger label printing (cbgl_mp01) from ABAP to generate Bar code labels

Hello
SAP GLM is part of SAP EH&S. To use SAP EH&S GLM you need to do some set up in these areas (list not complete !):
- Document Management System
- EH&S Product Safety
- Generation of symbols to be used in WWI
- set up of GLM WWI (separate generartion server)
- etc.
It is possible to print bar codes in EH&S SAP GLM (it is a matter of fonts etc.). This is a "must" for nearly any company who would like to use EH&S GLM. PLease refer to EH&S GLM documentation.
Most of the staff needed can be searched for at SAP links like:
http://help.sap.com/bestpractices/BBLibrary/HTML/H43_EHS_EN_DE.htm

HCM Process and Forms & Global employee management

Hi all,
I would to know if anyone of you experience in implementing HCM Process and forms for Global employee management(GEM).
I would like to know the difficulties or challeges .
How the forms will work.
Means if i have created a form using Personnel number without GEM.
Later if i Implement GEM.do i have to Change the form ?
Does P&F has any option choose the employee based on personnel id anywhere or we have to use personnel number and process as existing.
what could be stuctures for each infotype which are country specific .
Please share your experience on this.
Regards,
Nachy

Forms and processes are enabled for CE/GE.
what process you would lile to do ?
refer HR_PA_US_ADDL_CONTRACT sample process and note 1366872
1) The central person id of the existing (reference) pernr should be
   read with the help of a generic service and this should be made
   available for the SAP_PA service so that a new central person is not
   created. This should be set in the field CENTRAL_PERSON in the
   form scenario.
2) An explicit operation on IT0709 should not be defined in the
   infotypes and operations of the design time tool. This is
   automatically handled by the infotype framework through the data
   sharing mechanism (table T582G). Kindly ensure that IT0709 is
   enabled for data sharing and please remove it from the process.
3) The reference pernr data and the shared infotypes must be read with
   the generic service only (refer to note 1366782), these should not
   be read with the SAP_PA service as this may lead to a clash in the
   record keys and can lead to undesired results.

Global Trade Services for Logistics/Shipping companies

Hi, I am researching on functionality of SAP GTS and its relevance to operations of a Logistics Service Provider / Shipping Company.
1) How relevant will this product be to a Logistics/Shipping company.
2) Would like to know if anyone has implemented this product for such companies and what is the typical/average time to implement ?
3) Any idea on license cost for GTS ?
Thanks,
Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,
I must say that your questions seem so "general" you may have difficulty getting satisfactory details in the answers. But let's try anyway.
The main reason that GTS is not highly relevant to the type of logistics/shipping company (3PL ?) that you are talking about is that the shipper (US Principal Party of Interest) is ultimately responsible for compliance with legal regulations. Since that cannot be 'delegated', many are reluctant to allow a 3PL to own and maintain the system that controls the compliance activities. Instead, what some opt to do is implement GTS with their enterprise systems (SAP or non-SAP) and allow the 3PL employees to log into their GTS systems through VPN to conduct various shipping activities and print certain forms relevant for export. Having worked for a 3PL in the past, I can also say that I don't believe many of them are interested in "owning" GTS as a tool.
There is a company that "hosts" GTS systems and you simply pay a monthly fee to use it. This setup might be more interesting to you and maybe to the 3PL you are talking about.
There is no "typical" time to implement GTS. Because it is such a robust and flexible system with so many functionalities related to global trade, an implementation could range from weeks to years. You will get a better answer to question #2 if you provide details of the functionality you need. Santioned Party List screening? Export License Control? Trade Preference? Risk Management? Customs Imports? Customs Exports? Intrastat Reporting? Letter of Credit?
Only SAP or a certified SAP reseller will be able to give you an accurate idea of the cost for your GTS license. It depends upon how much of the system you will implement and in some cases, the volume of data flowing through.
Cheers !

SMSY entries for GTS (Global Trade Services) system

We configured RCA for our Solution Manager v7.01 ehp1 sp06. All of our
systems are showing Change Analysis data except for our GTS system.
I need to find the proper entries in SMSY and why it is not extacting
change analysis data. Im suspecting its the product definition for the GTS IN SMSY...
Our GTP system is GTS 7.0 NW7.0 sp19. I created a product
This is my current Product Def in SMSY:
SAP Global Trade Services->GTD (GTS 7.0) , Main Instance = SSLLEG
SAP Netweaver -> GTD (NW7.0), Main Product=Application server ABAP
Is this correct? How come I have no data in Change Analysis? Is there any step-by step guide for GTS landscape definition?

Hi There
The product listed in this SAP note 1010428 is only supported by the RCA . If it does fall under that note
then please refer to this SAP Note 1036695

Regards,

Hi Amol,
You can still print the labels with the tcode : CBGL_MP01 with template as report with following settings:
1) In customizing Specify Label Categories under Global label management, you have defined Label categories.
2) In Label data view of Material master you have maintained Label categories under Labeling Specification and either a Label size or Generation variant maintained for that label caegory. Generation variant has the Application object assigned as Label Stock.
This label stock has information about Label categories, Label size, material, validity area etc. And your report template is assigned to the Generation variant.
3) Use the Label category defined in the Material master view, in your Generation variant Report category.
So when you run the tcode: CBGL_MP01, system checks the above settings and give you the posible reports in Label tree.
Anyone,
Pls. correct me if I am wrong.
Regards,
Niraj

The steps i took are :
a) Create a Funds management area
b) Assign the FM Area to company code
c) Activate Global FM Function
d) Activate Global FM Budgetory control check
e) To a FM area assign the currency,Budget profile,Fund profile ,Fiscal year variant
f) The master data to be created
1. Fund centre
2. Commitment item
Funds are not relevant at my scenario so it is not relevant.
g) Made budget entry for a FM area at Fund centre,Fund,Commitment item level.
h) Created derivation rules for the posting.
i) Assign Commitment item to GL accounts
j) After checking the postings, I tried to activate FM.
At this point the FM is giving me the same error:- Read Access Only
