Local Contracts in SRM

Hi,
I have the following question:
I'm trying to do a call off against a Local (Purchase) Contract but can't seem to get this to happen in the Classic scenario? I've tried to assign the contract line item via the Sourcing Cockpit but it still doesn't reflect the call off against the contract. I've been able to do this in the Extended Classic Scenario. Is this a limitation in the Classic scenario?
Currently on SRM 5.0, Classic scenario.
Any info appreciated.

Hi
local contract is applicable to only srm in extrended classic scenario.
but you can bring r/3 contracts in to srm by reports and the r/3 contracts will be available toy you and you can lock the backend contract at item level.

Local contract in SRM

Hi ,
What is the functionality of Basic Contract check box in the local contract. I understand that only header data is maintained and there won't be any line items . then how this contract is useful in the procurement chain and in which scenarios these contracts are made use......
Regards
Mani

Hi Mani,
Here are the benefit of basic contracts :
- conditions apply to a vendor whatever item you buy
- can be used in contract hierarchy : often at the top level
- if the basic contract is assigned to a PO item, the contract conditions applies to the price calculation.
- you have contract reporting and released value.
-in the sourcing cockpit, a basic contract can be found in the source determination. (only if the PO or invoice vendor is the contract vendor).
Please be aware that you can't distribute basic contract to SAP backends and you can't negociate header contract in SAP bidding engine.
Kind regards,
Yann

Local Contract and GOA

Hi,
In which technical scenario we can use
1)GOA
2)Local Contract
3)Both.
THANKS,
Venky

1)GOA -
In classic for all your source of supply as distributed contract for your PR,PO and SC
IN ECS only for backend direct materials . this can be used only in backends but this only for your backend.
2)Local Contract only ECS
3)Both.-Yes
Local contract for srm procurement
GOA for backend .

SRM Local Contract Dumps when same material exists in multiple backend systems

Hi All,
We have a scenario of two backend systems connected to SRM system.
Materials are created with the same number in both the ECC systems and replicated to SRM system .
Materials are updated in COMM_PRODUCT in SRM with the respective logical system.
But when we creating a local contract by adding the same material system is throwing a dump .
system is not able to recognize the logical system for the material and material group linked.
Please let me us know if you have faced any such issue
Thanks
Rajesh

Hi Rahul Nazar,
RFC connections are working fine for both the logical systems.
Please find the dump details below :

SRM Local Contracts - Price Conditions

Hi,
We are trying to extract the price conditions from the SRM Local Contract line items, with the Condition Type, Valid From, Valid To, Amount, Price Unit, Unit. This is to allow us to track the changes in contract prices.
If you have any experience of this, or know which SRM tables we need to be extracting from it would be greatly appreciated! We already have the Contract Header and Line information from CRMD_ORDERADM_H, CRMD_ORDERADM_I, BBP_PDHGP and BBP_PDIGP. Where are the conditions stored? And are there any extractors planned for this in the future? It would be very useful standard content.
Thanks.

Hi
Few BADIs to refer using SE18 Transaction (Please read standard documentation provided by SAP on them )
BBP_IMS_CONTACT Changes the Contract for the E-Mail
BBP_CTR_INIT_UP Contracts and GOAs to SRM
BBP_CHANGE_SF_CTR Change Smart Form for Contract Output
BBP_CND_UI_CTRL BBP Conditions: UI Control
BBP_CTR_BE_CREATE Exit when Creating a Contract in the Backend System
BBP_CTR_INIT_UP BAdI to upload Contracts and GOAs to SRM
BBP_CTR_MAIL_BADI BAdI for Changes Regarding Sending Mails

Creation of backend contract from SRM system?

Dear Experts,
I am bit confused with the scenario of creation of backend contract from SAP SRM system? It says in few cases, based on the BAdi 'BBP_DETERMINE_Logsys', the system creates a backned contract directly in a backend ERP system. Why do we need when we have central contract?
We can meet the same requirement through central contract where we will authorize only purchasing organizations of a backend system and block the contract for local sourcing in SRM?
Secondly, How to find a contract / scheduling agreement created in a backend system when a central contract is distributed to the backend system?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hello Ranjan
question on contracts?
Note 1476307 - Importing parameter not filled in BADI BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS
in classic scenario , The Business wanted to create a contract from cockpit or via BID
this BADI helps
Symptom
You have implemented BAdi BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS to control the system in which contract is created in following scenarios:
1. Creation of contract from an accepted quote / bid.
2. Creation of contract from a requisition in SOCO.
In the method IF_EX_BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS~CONTRACT_LOGSYS_DETERMINE of the BAdi implementation, importing parameter IT_ORG doesnot have any values.
Other terms
Backend contract
Reason and Prerequisites
some business wants to create a backend contract from SRM . see some Dinesh Powale / Claude threads for more understanding.

Invoice for Local contract.

The process in ECC system 1) create a contract 2) Create Release Order 3) Post the invoice against Release order, we won't be able to post the invoice against the contract .
In SRM system , is it possible to post the invoice against the local contract with out creating follow on purchase order. Request feedback from SRM experts
Regards
Mani

Dear Mani,
As we know that contracts are the agreements for future supply and we can not show contract as an asset like inventory (As no goods has been delivered) neither it is a liability until the PO is created and goods delivered.
So in the books of accounts if we create invoice against contract we can not show it on balance sheet.
Therefore, it is not possible to raise the invoice against contract you will have to have PO for the same.
Assign points if answered.

Distributing Central Contract from SRM to ECC

Hi,
We are using SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0 in backend (no EHP). We're setting up a central contract with IDOCs. From what I read we have made the configuration:
in SRM:
- Assign attribute CT_PROC_TY = CCTR
- Connfigure new condition type PB00 which is the same with ECC price for contract
- activate the BADI BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS and coding it so for contract it will always go to backend (in method CONTRACT_LOGSYS_DETERMINE)
- I have activated BADI BBP_CTR_BE_CREATE but writing no code, as there no need for me to do mapping
in ECC:
- Activate inbound IDOC type BLAORD and COND_A and assign it to the logical system of SRM
Then I create the contract in SRM. but:
1. When creating contract, in item overview, i cannot tick 'distribution' indicator. Not sure what is the function
2. In item detail, tab distribution, I cannot put create release-purchasing org. Even when using search help it is not giving any value
Actually dont really understand the usefull of the indicator above, so I let it be empty, then I release the contract
The contract then not appear in ECC. I have checked SMQ1/SMQ2 nothing. Even in WE05 in ECC nothing. The only thing I see is in SLG1 where I see error triggered by user WF-BATCH with message "No recipient found"
Do i miss something in here? Any help will be very appreciated.
Josh

Hi Josh,
Central contract is only possible in SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0 EHP 4. You can use local contracts or GOA.

Local contract and classic scenario

Hi all
A question regarding contracts - and interpretation...
On help.sap.com the following is stated:
SAP Enterprise Buyer, as the central purchasing system, saves the contract data and uses it for local purchase orders and purchase orders of the extended classic scenario.
I interpret this as, if one is using the classic scenario it's not possible to operate with local contracts in the SRM system. Can anyone confirm this?
And if so - any workarounds?
Our dilemma is that we have an extended classic scenario. Some materials are stock materials, and for these materials we are using a BAdi to switch off the extended classic scenario. No contract data is now added to the shopping cart, which I think is due to the classic scenario.
Thanks for your help in advance
;o)
Maria

Maria
If you want the contracts to be in SRM and do not want them to send to Backend, then check this out.
Create a Vendor list for those items in SRM by assigning the local contracts to the vendors.Activate Vendor list for sourcing.
Then local contract data should pick as SOS from the vendor list.
If you can create contracts in Backend for stock material then SC would pick the backend contract as SOS in classic scenario.
Let me know if the above works or not.
PS : Reward points if helpful.

Local contract for service master doesn't picked in PDP

Dear Experts,
We are on SRM 7.0 and in using PDP Scenario. Having created a local contract for service master which is released and acting as a source of supply when creating the shopping cart for the service master, however when purchase requisition is being transferred to the SRM system agains the same service master the shopping cart in available in the sourcing cockpit instead of picking the existing contract. Set the option as "sourcing carried without source of supply" , however this scenario works well for material master but not for service master, please advise me on this fix or any limitation in this version.
Thanks and Regards,
Venkata Koppisetti.

Wrong assignment of P org with P grp is the route cause, found the error and rectified which is working fine.

How can I transfer contract in SRM to ECC?

Hi Experts,
How can I transfer contract in SRm to ECC, and then we can do subsequent process, such as PO reference contract.
Thanks a lot!!!!!!

Hi Jock,
Are you trying to transfer local SRM contract to ECC system?.
GOA can distribute to backend system as a process contracts and scheduling agreement right?
local process contract only for SRM system right ? you can not push local contract to backend .
However you can bring backend ECC contract to SRM .
what is your business requirement ? which version are you working on?
since SRM2007 purhase contracts and GOA 's are merged to form a single central contract which is available for sourcing localy in srm and can also be distributed to different backend ECC systems.

Consume local contracts with extended claissc scenario

Hello,
We are implementing SRM 7 stack 10 with ECS. We are connected to one R3 4.7 backend.
Since local PO will be replicated to the backend, is that possible to consume local contracts with that scenario?
Could there be a problem with the GR if there is no contract in R3?
At the moment we can not manage to consume SRM contracts.
Thanks in advance

Hi ,
There can be various reasons why a local contract is not populated as a source of supply for requirements in extended classic. Ideally, local contract are always porposed as a source of supply unless
1. company codes are not identical.
2. Purchase organization of requirement does not match with any of the released authorized purchase organization.
3. product ID or product category are identical.
4. Delivery Plant mentioned in the requirement should not excluded in the contract and so on.
Check all the points and see if the contract is eligible enough to get popped as a source of supply.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Local Contracts

HI,
We are creating GOAs from Bids and distributing to backend after approvla process.
Our new requirement is to create local contracts based on certain agreement types.
Can we create local contracts when we distribute GOA by activating the BADI (After approval)? Is there any other better way to achieve this without disturbing the above business process?
Please let me know. Points will be awarded for useful answers.
Thanks,
Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,
GOA distribution and Backend Contracts are different. You are looking for a combination within. This is functionality is going to be available in SRM 7.0.
Anyhow, I would not try to combine both in a lower release via modification of GOA distribution. Everything you need is available by standard and can be customized via the doc type functionality (I do not recommend to use the Org Model for follow on doc determination as it is only allows one document and makes the process inflexible) and you do not change the existing behaviour.
Yes, it is a different transaction, but the screens are the same. and quite logical. So from a creation perspective users only need to know, which doc type to choose, e.g. GOA or LOC (or how you want to name it to make it conveniate for the users) and in which transaction to find the contract - GOA under "Create Global Outline Agreement" and LOC under "Create Contact". It is a pretty simple and proven appoach.
Cheers,
Claudia

Local Contract not created

Dear all,
there is a strange behaviour in a SRM 5.0 System.
We implemented BADI Determine Logsys for creation of local contracts in R/3. The process works fine from the Bidding Engine, but the contract is not created via the contract transaction. Looking into the details the system does not give the contract the logical system where to post the contract.
Any infos on this issue in the group?
Cheers,
Claudia

Hi Claudia,
it looks like SAP told you what the normal way is to create contracts in the backend directly: from sourcing or from bidding. take a look in the configuration guide for SRM 5, page 60: [click here (login to SAP)|https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700002897362004E/CG_Sourcing5.pdf]
Configuration guide, page 61:
(III) When creating an operational contract or a global outline agreement from the
contract management application of SAP Enterprise Buyer the system does not use
BAdI B1. The implementation of the BAdIs B2/B3 is optional.
B1 is the determine_logsys badi.

Robin

GOA versus Contract on SRM

Hi All,
We are on SRM 5.0 Server 5.5 and 2 back-ends systems: 4.6c and 4.7
According to our scenario we have following situation basing on categories
1) GOA created on SRM and replication after approval to back-ends: no Shopping cart will be created in SRM for these categories.
2) GOA created on SRM and approval + Shopping Cart created with reference to GOA always on SRM. GOA should also be replicated to back-end.
According to the above scenario we have some questions:
a) Is it possible to use the Global outline agreement as a source for making on SRM shopping cart? Looking to SAP documentation seems that the GOA cannot be used as source document for Purchase order creation...
b) If GOA is not suitable which contract should we use: local contract? Is it possible to replicated local contract to the back-end? Can you advice some BAdI to do it?
Thanks in advance
#Bill J.

Hi Bill,
In extended Classic Scenario you can create GOA and replicate them in the back end but you cannot use them as source a source.
Otherwise you can use local contract as a source but you can not replicate them in the back-end system.
Check Badi
BBP_CTR_BE_CREATE
BBP_CTR_INIT_UP
BBP_CTR_MAIL_BADI
BBP_CTR_MASS_BADI
Hope it helps
Best regards
Guido
