Lean Order Interface document flow in ERP

Hi experts,
As I currently do not have a system available which uses the LORD interface, I was hoping anyone could help me out on this question.
When an ECC-quotation is created from an opportunity in CRM and it is then viewed in ECC. Will the CRM opportunity be visible in the ECC document flow? And if it is, is the document flow registered in ECC as well, or retrieved from the CRM document flow tables?
Thank you!

Hi B. Verhoefen,
sorry for answering on such an old question, but I found it while searching for another issue.
It will be visible in the transaction history but you need at least LORD version 2. ERP document flow isn't possbile in version 1.

HR strutural Authorization check in the Lean order Interface (LORD)

Hi ,
We place Quotations , Orders in CRM 7.0 , via the Lean order Interface Screen (LORD) . So users in ECC have HR structural authorization and they seems to the checked ( for the HR# part of the Sales Team , and comming accross as partner function in the Quotations , Orders documents )
Can we avoid the HR structural Authorization check in the Lean order Interface ?

Dear Christophe,
I do not understand the requirement...you create ERP orders via CRM interface, and you have set up authorization in ERP for the users. Why do you want to prevent the authority check when coming from CRM when it is needed ?
However please consider note 1446253 quesiton 9.
You might activate or deactivate the "current user" flag in sm59 for your ERP system.
Hope this information helps...

Sale order document flow-u0091Service Documentsu0092 is coming which should't aper

New Issue with Sales order document flow:
When linking from a sales order in document flow, we were reviewing why the description information varied. In looking at different values, we clicked on a new item within document flow that allows you to like to Service Documents. This is new in 6.0, or it was previously deactivated in 4.6C. If you link from a sales order to a service document, in ECC 6.0, you will get a short dump because the document flow is so great (viewing order #any in VA03 and use document flow and then select the service documents button as seen on the screen below
A Short dump will occur in program SAPLDOCUMENT_FLOW_ALV.
Here in ECC 6.0 is how it looks from sales order 9806:
Documents created from 2004 through 2007 are coming up as linked to this sales order and that is incorrect. There is some type of linkage issue. In the 4.6 C environments, the service documents link is not visible from document flow.
Can any body functional / technical Help on this urgent???

Hi Sanjay,
Go to the order VA03 --> Environment --> status overview. The exact status of the header and item can be found here. You may have chances to know why the status is being processed.
Also
Check whether you have checked 'document flow update' field at item level in copy control
Check your settings for completion rule in item category
If it is due to incorrect status message, run report SDVBUK00. That might fix the error. It is recommended to run this first in test mode.

No document flow updated in Service Order regarding MM flow i.e. PR, PO, GR

Hello,
On creating a service order in CRM, the purchase requisition is created automatically in R/3 for the spare parts entered.
But this PR information is not getting updated in the service order's document flow in CRM.
I analysed the flow and found that PR gets successfully created and sends back the document flow data to CRM inbound queue.
The BDoc type involved is CRM_SRV_XTN.
In it's Extended part, there is a field called ORDERADM_H_GUID which is correctly filled in the BAPIMTCS structure in R/3 which is converted to probably XML format through macro MOVE_CASTING and sent to CRM inbound queue (function module BAPI_CRM_SAVE).
However, on debugging the respective inbound queue in CRM, I noticed that the field ORDERADM_H_GUID value is not the same as filled in R/3 but some CONSTANT value like 00230023002300560023002300230023 in all the cases.
Also, FYI, the fieldu2019s value in R3 after conversion looks like as following u2013
#########################0000000000 ########䣴Ώ삷#耀諣뢮######## 48F4038FC0B70093E10080008AE3B8AE
While in CRM i.e. FM BAPI_CRM_SAVE it looks as follows u2013
#########################0000000000 ######################## 48F4038FC0B70093E10080008AE3B8AE
So there I feel that the value what is sent from R/3 is not the same as recieved in CRM, on XML conversion.
Please advise what could be the reason for this anomaly.
Thanks and regards,
Manish

unfortunately document flow in PS is not like in SD
only in ECP there is a limited possibility
you can see the line item report and activate the relationship browser which will give the details of the documents related to that posting
other than that nothing

Multiple contract assignment using document flow

hello
i need to attach mulitiple contracts to diffrent lines items of the service order using document flow.
One needs to attach contract header at the service order header and contract item at the service order item.
This works fine if you try to attach single contract to single line item in servie order.
But when you try to attach another contract to different line item of the service it gives dump.
The system issues an error message CRM_DOC_FLOW 010 and gives dump.
Has anybody faced this issues before.
Pls advice.

Sales order Document Flow

Hi,
I have a requirement to create an application which shows the data as seen on the "Document Flow" screen of a Sales Order.
I must be able to enter the Sales Order Number and the application must display the status of the order, just like in document flow.
Can someone let me know how to go about this?
Any bapis, relevant tables, etc ?
Thanks and Regards,
Reena

Hi Reena,
I would try to call the transaction BAPI (release 4.6C) in sap backend and go to the sales order section and check the input and output parameters of standard SAP BAPIs you need (look for example to BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST).
In my case, we have developed our own BAPIs based on standard BAPIs from SAP.
Hope that helps!
Regards,
Frank
By the way, if you are in higher releases like mySAP ERP 2005 there are much more interfaces for Sales Order than in release 4.6c. Don't know your release so I think it's perhaps important to know that for you...

Need no document flow update for sales order create with reference

Dear All.
We would like to have the ability to create a sales order with reference to another sales order, and have the document flow of the sales order not updated.
Unlike the case of a standard create with reference where the documents are linked, in this case there is no relationship between the documents. The first document is just acting like a template for the remaining documents, to save time during order entry.
We have turned off update of document flow at the line item level.
But I don't see a way for us to turn this off at the header (document level). So wondering if there's another way to turn this off, or possibly through user-exit or VOFM requirement?
Has anyone else done this?
I think that CRM has this functionality, but we're still entering orders through ERP-SD.
Many Thanks!

Hello Colleague;
The issue you have reported is SAP standard. The checkbox "Update Document Flow" (V_TVCPAAP-UPFLU) controls document flow at item level. If this checkbox is set to blank, there will be no document flow at item level.
However, the document flow cannot be completely turned off - if the 'update document flow' indicator is blank, you will still see an entry in the document flow, but there will be no update to table VBFA (Sales Document Flow) and the document flow of the predecessor will not be updated at item level (no record in VBFA at item level).
The reason is that the system checks VBAP (Sales Document: Item Data) for fields VGBEL (Document number of the reference document) and VGPOS (Item number of the reference item) for values. You will always have document flow information on header and item level in the successor because it stores this information in table VBAP.
Related with this issue, you can find a Note 53383 for your review.
I hope it can clarify the case.

Proforma invoice number is not in the document flow of the order.

Hi all,
I have a doubt , if i create an proforma invoice based on order, and after that i create delivery and billing, i cannot able to see the proforma invoice in the document flow of the particular order. pls guide me on this
Thanks all
Kumi

Hi,
Goto VTLA, and check the UPDATE DOCUMENT FLOW in the copy control
If it is already set , then directly from sales order you can find the Proforma invoice .
Goto the sales order in VA02 and enter into the overscreen and from there check the document flow ( F5), now you can see the Proforma invoices.

Sales order document flow error

we do credit memo for one sales order, in the sales order document flow, the credit memo accounting document's status is not cleared. how can we changed it to be cleared?

Hi,
Clearing will be done by finance after the payment is given to the customer. This clearing is done by transaction F-22.
VKM3 is used for releasing document blocked for credit management and not for clearing the accounting document.

Contract not visible in sales order document flow

Hi
I am supposed to create sales order from Contract.The requirement is that only header data should be copied.Thus In Copy Control configuration I did not maintain item level and schedule line level settings for these document types. The issue is that after running the whole cycle from Contract -->SO --> Delivery --> Invoice when I see the Sales Order document flow I can see all other documents but not the contract.Also In Contract document flow I can see only sales order but not delivery and invoice.Please guide.

Hello,
Update Document Flow option is available only at Item Level in copy control setting from Contract to Sales Order.
Check out your Copy Control Records at Item Level. There would be "2" mentioned in "pdate document flow" box.
2 means Create doc. flow records except for dely/goods issue/billdoc. Here you to maintain "X" for Complete Document flow.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Issue in Updating Sales Order Document flow

Hi Experts,
We have developed a Z Program for posting Material document for the deliveries of Sales Order. This program runs in Batch job everyday.
Here we are getting an issue like in some of the cases it's not updating the Document flow of the Sales order though its Posting Material Document for the Delivery of Sales Order. If there will be a bulk amount of data then its creating issue in updating the Document flow ( Either the 1st set of record or last set of records).
We are using BAPI 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE' for posting Material Document for the delivery and FM 'RV_DOCUMENT_FLOW_UPDATE_U' for updating the document flow.
It seems it giving issue with bulk amount of data. Will it a time issue?
If any one have faced such issue, please throw some pointers.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Priyabrata.

It could be a timing issue. After you create the material document, try to enque the material document and move to the next step only if the enque is successful. Keep trying to enque the material document until u are successful. But make sure you exit the loop after certain number of tries to avoid endless loops. Here is a sample code:
DO 20TIMES.
    CALL FUNCTION ;'ENQUEUE_EMMKPF'
      EXPORTING
        MODE_MKPF      = co_e
       MBLNR          = xxxxx
      MJAHR           = xxxx
      EXCEPTIONS
        foreign_lock   = 1
        system_failure = 2
        OTHERS         = 3.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
dequeue/unlock the notification again
      CALL FUNCTION DEQUEUE_EMMKPF
        EXPORTING
          MODE_MKPF= co_e
       MBLNR          = xxxxx
      MJAHR           = xxxx
     EXIT.
    ELSE.
in case of no success, wait 1 seconds, before try again
      CALL FUNCTION 'RZL_SLEEP'
        EXPORTING
          seconds        = 1
        EXCEPTIONS
          argument_error = 1
          OTHERS         = 2.                               "#EC *
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.

Sales Order -- Purchase Req -- Purchase Order ..... Sales Document flow??

Hi Guys,
We have a process where we proccure few parts externally. When a sales order is created in our system based on the item category config we are able to create a purchase requition automatically. This Preq is further used to create a PO based on which the purchasing group proccures the part from the vendor.
We are trying to identify if there is a way to find out a way if we can relate the PO number created in the sales document flow? Currently we are not able to view the PO number in the sales document flow. We are trying to identify if this is possible and if yes what needs to ne configuered to enable PO number linking in sales document flow?
Any pointers?
Cheers
VJ

Hi Bikash,
The PO field which u r referring to on the VA01 screen is the PO number against which a SO is created. This PO number is the customers PO number. My requirement is i need to store the Intercompany PO number which is the PO number created to procure the part externally from the vendor. So its the vendor PO number and not the customer PO number.
Secondly if i try to misuse any other field to store this PO number it dosent make sense as it would not show up in the document flow screen so it would be of no use to us. We want to enable it the std way and i am sure SAP has provided some way to do it.
I check the OSS notes and found some interesting tips working on that hopefully should be able to resolve it.
Cheers

Document flow in Purchase order

Hi,
How can check the document flow in purchase order(me22n). Please help me on this issue..
Thanks..

HI
There is no document flow like SD in MM
Inorder to get the doc flow for a PO you can goto ME23N or ME22n and in item details click on PURCHASE ORDER HISTORY TAB here you will get the GR , IR etc.
Alternatively you can goto table EKBE and enter the EBELN (PO number ) and execute you will get the doc flow
