Maintain price (change) in Shopping cart

Hi
We have in our catalog (CCM2.0) created some articles like fx Consulting. The price for consulting can be different and we like to change a dummy price when the article is transfered to catalog.
Do anyone know what we can do to make the price field maintainable in shopping cart?
Thanks in advance

Dear Jesper,
it is standard that the price from catalog item should not be changeable in the shopping cart. If you need this functionality then please take a look at consulting note 693175. Maybe this helps.
Best regards,
Georg

Change Rejected Shopping Cart

Hi,
One of the users has created a shopping cart and the Approver has Rejected the Shopping Cart. The User is having BBP_WFL_SECURITY attributed value to LOW.
The Rejected Shopping Cart Status at header Level is Shoing as Awaiting Approval and at Item level it is showing as Rejected.
When the User Clicks on the Item Details they are able to see the Change Button and when they are trying to change the Shopping Cart they should be able to change the Quantity, Price, Required On date which is not happening.
Here are my questions
1. Why the Rejected Shopping Cart Header Status is shown as Awaiting Approval even thought it is rejected by approver?
2. When ever the user is trying to change the Rejected Shopping Cart why is it not allwoing them to do the same?
Is there anything that needs to be looked out apart from the BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI(this is inactive)?
Regards,
Satya

Hi,
I guess the task is not general task.
Please find the task ID( like TS10407972) and open it in transaction PFTC.
Menu Additional Data -> Agent Assignment -> Display
If the task is not general task, please set it as general task.
The system admin can handle the workitem already created with no agent.
Go to transaction SWI2_ADM1 and forward the workitem to responsible person.

SRM alert for changes in shopping cart

Hi,
We have a requirement to create a shopping cart automatically upon receiving a trigger and the necessary purchase information from an external system and then send an update to the external system when the preferred vendor updates the price in the shopping cart or whenever there's a status update (approved, error, etc.).
I wonder whether there's a way to set an alert that will automatically inform the external system that there's an update in the shopping cart.
There's a BADi called BBP_ALERTING. Can this BADi be used to achieve our goal ? If not, how can we achieve this goal ?
Thanks,
Lara

Hi. If you want to trigger the update yourself from a BADI when certain data is changed then BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI is called every time data is changed and contains the latest data.
You can use it to check when certain fields are filled in then send the data to the external system.
If you want to make sure that the data is only triggered once you could create custom fields to store a flag when you first send an update to make sure that you do not send it again. You can use the BBP_CUF_BADI to hide the custom fields from the user but you can still amend the data in them from BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI.
This way when you first inform the external system that the vendor has been added you can store an X in a custom field. The code to send to the external system can check 'If vendor is not blank and custom field is blank then send to external system and update custom field to X'.
Regards,
Dave.

Termination Error when Changing Rejected Shopping Cart

Hello All -
We are on SRM 5.0 Classic scenario. If you try to change a shopping cart that has been rejected, if the section that you want to edit is not open before you click the change button you get a termination message that says "error processing your request" and a bunch of other stuff underneath the message.
Has anyone encountered this? I have looked on OSS but haven't seen this problem mentioned. The only way to get around it is to expand all the sections where you might want to edit data and then click the change button. That seems a bit strange. If you realize you didnt expand a section that you need to change, you get the error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Jane

Hi,

Changing "Check Shopping Cart" screen and Completion workflow

Hi,
Below i describe a) the current process, b) the required changes, and c) my questions.
Though it is also about workflows i still thought this was the best place to post the thread.
Current process:
In the process "free text order" i choose Go Shopping >> Shop >> Describe Requirement. I fill in details and complete the next steps.
Now the Completion workflow (WS14000044) has started.
So if I now look on my homepage in SRM i have an approval item which reads:
 Approval
 You can approve or reject shopping carts and read your e-mails relating to the procurement transaction
 You have
 - 1 Workflow Entries in Inbox
 - 0 Unread Documents in Inbox
So i open the list and find one item: Complete shopping cart of mr X.. Now i click on the item and it takes me to "Check Shopping Cart"
At the bottom of the screen is one button: "Change"
Requirements:
1) add two buttons to this screen. One button is "Reject", to reject the shoppping cart directly. The second button "Mail Requester" to send the shopping cart back to the requester and also sends a mail via outlook to inform the requester that this has happened and requesting more information.
2) these buttons should then influence the behaviour of the Completion Workflow. In this workflow (WS14000044) the task Completion (TS14007947) currently has one activated outcome. From my two buttons i would need two more outcomes that allow me to model the other actions that i need i.e. the rejection outcome and the back-to-requester/send-mail outcome.
Questions:
1) is it allowed/possible to add the buttons to the existing screens. Or do i need to create a custom screen and call that instead of the standard screen?
2) is it allowed/possible to modify the completion workflow as described? Or do i need to copy and then modify?
3) How could i make the buttons to interact with the workflow? The only thing i can think of is to create a Z-bus object of the object Form and to modify so that it show my expected outcomes.
4) any helpful links to sdn posts of blogs or otherwise on how to go about to create the necessary changes.
Thx for your input
Kind regards
Robert

Hi Robert,
Again, before technical solutioning, we need to step back and understand the business process and functions of each role (e.g., Buyer, Financial Approver) in the completion and approval workflow.
Here's my understanding of the as-is (correct me if I am wrong). You are using One-Step Spending Limit WF (10000276) for financial approval. This is done by a Financial Approver (I am guessing, the line manager). The Buyer is not part of the process. Now, you want to introduce free-text requisitioning, and, consequently, you want to introduce the Buyer role into the workflow process - to complete the free-text lines (e.g. with vendor, price).
Based on above scenario, I believe your initial solution was not incorrect - introduce Completion WF (14000044) for the completion task, while keeping 10000276 for financial approval.
Now the business wants the Buyer to play a more active role in the process. They want to be able to Reject (the whole cart?) and Inquire (send the cart back to requester with questions). In my mind, it may still be possible to explore keeping the original design with Completion WF without modifying it, and still achieve the business needs. You can explore different ways of doing that: delete SC items instead of Rejecting, add Approval Comments to inquire, etc.
Alternatively, you can replace all your workflows with one - WS14000133 "Spending limit, n-step,
dynamic approvers (BAdI)". Here, you can determine your approvers flexibly via a BAdI implementation. For example:
1. If Total Amount =< Spending Limit of Purchaser, then no approval agents - auto-approve SC.
2. If Total Amount > Spending Limit of Purchaser AND there're no free-text lines, then determine Financial Approver.
3. If Total Amount > Spending Limit of Purchaser AND there're incomplete free-text lines, then determine Buyer; once free-text lines completed - then Financial Approver.
WS14000133 also has back-and-forth functionality which you can use for the inquiries. WS14000133 provides the most flexibilty, but it also involves more effort to implement. Read up on WS14000133 at help.sap.com.
Bottom line - I would focus on evaluating these two standard options: 14000044 with 10000276, or 14000133. You may need to do some pros/cons, cost/benefit analysis. But I see no need to modify or copy SAP templates in your case.
Cheers,
Serguei

Changes to shopping cart during approval.

We are running the N-Step approval workflow WS14000133.
The issue we are having is when an approver makes a change to the shopping cart during approval (Task TS10008126) we would like this to trigger the step that sends the cart back to the requestor to check/approve(Task TS10008061).
The desired behaviour occurs if the approver makes a change to the price, but not if other aattributes of the shopping cart are changed such as the vendor or the description.
The workflow determines if the cart should be passed back to the requestor based on the approve_or_reject flag in the approval task container. This variable is set to 4 when the price is changed, but 0 if other attributes are changed.
The security level for the approver to 'High' so that the workflow does not restart.
Is there any way to control what changes to the shopping cart will cause the workflow to create the task for the requestor.

What I am saying is that I want the workflow to continue and it is. This is not the issue. I am happy with the way that the security level is working.
The issue is that I would like the workflow to send a task to the requisitioner for ANY change that is made to the shopping cart. The standard solution will only send a notification to the requisition if a change is made to the value of the cart.
We need to pick up all changes such as the description or the vendor.
If you look at workflow WS14000134 you will see that after the approval step there is a decision step that will route the workflow to the notification to creator task or by-pass it. This is based on a variable that is set by the approval task. If the value is changed the value is set to 4, but if the vendor is changed then the value remains as 0.
The question here is 'Can we influence the way that this approval state variable is set?'

Zero Price Item In Shopping Cart - where is IR flag in Shopping Cart?

HI,
I am relatively new SRM user.
I am interested in knowing how can I manually post the shopping cart with zero price to create a free of charge PO in back end? I believe there is IR flag in Shopping cart but I am not able to get where that IR flag is in shopping cart.
Please help me with the transaction & steps for removing IR flag in shopping cart.
Thanks
Nim

Hello Nim,
As written previously, if you created a Shopping Cart with a zero total value, as Invoice Receipt Expected flag comes from vendor data, according to vendor purchasing organization (tab 'Vendor Data' in "Manages Business Partner" web transaction), you won't be able to create Purchase Order if this flag is set: error message BBP_PD 045 will be displayed.
So, you have two alternatives.
a- First, you unset the flag for the concerned vendor. However, doing this, you won't be able to create purchasing document with total value upper than zero (same error message BBP_PD 045 will be raised)
b- Second, as no BAdI allows to manage further procurement information such as 'Invoice Receipt Expected', you will have to make some standard modifications.
Regards.
Laurent Burtaire.

Changes in shopping cart at run time doesn't reflect at approval level.

Hello experts,
I have created a shopping cart upto 4 levels based on immediate manager, category id, cost center and last manager (who will approve/reject ). It is working good so far. At 3rd level (cost center) I added a formula ( Overall value > 5.000 ). It means when overall value is greater than 5000 then only cost center is going to be displayed. It works when overall value goes above 5000. But before finishing shopping cart if user changes quantity, makes it less than previously entered (which affects overall value less than 5000 ) then at 3rd level it shows approval. This is not correct. As value goes below 5000 it should not show 3rd level approver. Where I should chnge the code ? Is there anything workng there ? Please advise. Thank you.
Best regards.

Hello Sam.

Apostrophe character in MDM changes in shopping cart

Since we went on 5.5 SP06, any apostrophe ( ' ) in the short description in the Data Manager translates to ' in the SRM shopping cart and subsequently affects purchase order output from ECC. Any help as to what is causing this or how to prevent is welcomed.

Field type for approval change in shopping cart approval

Hi,
Can anyone tell me where i define the type of field where i can choose a approver when i want to change the approver of a shoppingcart?
Shoppingcart last screen before pressing order -> Approval preview -> press on the user who is to approve.
Then a screen at the bottom comes with the oppertunity to search for initials of a new approver, i am quite sure i have seen this as a drop down box at some point.
Is there someplace where i can set this field to be a drop down box instead of a search box?
Best regards
Lisa M Simonsen

Hi,
Thanks for the reply but in this badi i cannot add approvers to any list are you sure your not thinking of the badi called BBP_CHNG_AGNT_GET?
We used this badi to set the initials of the users that were in the drop down box (That now has disapeared) But now no users are sent to the badi. The badi gets hit when i put a break point in the code.
I am quite sure there is some place this is customized up cos even if i put users in the exporting table of this badi the search box is still there and the users i added to the table have dissapeard.
Best regards

Price Change while creating a shopping cart

Dear Srm Guru's
We are in SRM 4.0 and following a classic scenarios.
While creating a shopping cart the price in the shopping cart is picked up from the price which we upload through EBP_GET_BACKEND_PRICES
If there is a variation in the price can we change the price while creating the shopping cart. Currently the field is in display mode what settings should we make that it allows a change of price while creation of shopping cart.
Regards,
Nimish Sheth

Nimish,
for this you have to change the standard code.
In screen communication structures, there is a flag "price_changeable" that controls the edit mode of price field.
You have to change the standard logic to implement your behaviour in FORM price_changable_set from include LBBP_SC_APPF92:
IF es_item-mode EQ gc_display OR
    ( es_item-rfq_ind EQ gc_yes AND es_item-price IS INITIAL ).
    CLEAR: es_item-price_changeable.
ELSE.
    IF NOT es_item-catalogid IS INITIAL OR
       es_item-price_origin EQ c_price_origin_f OR
       iv_scenario EQ c_sc_generic_soco OR
       iv_scenario EQ c_sc_generic_history OR
       iv_scenario EQ c_sc_generic_workload OR
       ( es_item-price NE es_item-gross_price AND
         NOT es_item-price IS INITIAL ).
      CLEAR: es_item-price_changeable.
    ELSE.
      es_item-price_changeable = gc_yes.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Items in the shopping cart appear with different price than in the catalog

Hi All,
We are running SRM 5.0 (Classic Scenario) with external catalogues.
After selecting items from the external catalogue and transferring them to the shopping cart, the items appear with different price(the problem exists in the productive system)
The strange thing is that there is no dependence or sequence between the differences. For example, in one shopping cart, one item is with correct price, the price of the other item is not correct (when I click on the icon which is showing item details in the catalogue, the price is different than the one in the shopping cart). Sometimes the difference is significant, sometimes not - if the item price in the catalogue is 22.34 EUR, in the shopping cart is 21.22EUR or if the item is 45.62EUR in the shopping cart is 45.60 EUR. There is no logic.
I tried to create a shopping cart in the support system, with the same items from this catalogue, and they are sent back in SRM with the correct prices.
I traced all OCI parameters, sent from the supplier catalogue, and everything is correct.
At the example given below the price in the shopping cart ordered in the productive system is 69.00CZK, and after that during the test the correct price of 73.870CZK has appeared.
NEW_ITEM-DESCRIPTION==Durable-KeyClip-keytag%2C+black
NEW_ITEM-MATNR==
NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP==
NEW_ITEM-QUANTITY==10
NEW_ITEM-UNIT==EA
NEW_ITEM-PRICE==73.870
NEW_ITEM-PRICEUNIT==1
NEW_ITEM-CURRENCY==CZK
NEW_ITEM-NEW_ITEM-LEADTIME==1
NEW_ITEM-VENDOR==
NEW_ITEM-VENDORMAT==0176%2F1957001
NEW_ITEM-MANUFACTCODE==
NEW_ITEM-MANUFACTMAT==
NEW_ITEM-CONTRACT==
NEW_ITEM-CONTRACT_ITEM==
NEW_ITEM-SERVICE==
NEW_ITEM-EXT_QUOTE_ID==
NEW_ITEM-EXT_QUOTE_ITEM==
NEW_ITEM-EXT_PRODUCT_ID==23109
NEW_ITEM-EXT_SCHEMA_TYPE==UNSPSC
NEW_ITEM-EXT_CATEGORY_ID==55121504
NEW_ITEM-LONGTEXT_1%3A132==Durable-KeyClip%0D%0Akeytag%2Cblack%0D%0A%0D%0A6pc
I checked the error log in SLG1 for BBP_OCI, and no error message exists. In my opinion the problem can be in supplier system, because otherwise all items will be with wrong price. And at the moment, there are shopping carts in which all items are with the correct price!
It is not something in the user profile, because in one shopping cart created by one user some items are correct, some of them not.
I also checked with the supplier, they said that they haven't change the price, recently.
Has somebody of you met this problem?
In the IMG-> Define External Web Services (Catalogs, Vendor Lists etc.) I have set all parameters for the standard call structure: the URL of the supplier, our company ID and password for their catalogue.
In the Detail view for the catalogue, the following parameters are set
u201CAdditional functions in the product catalogueu201D field:
-     Display product data again in the catalogue
-     Validate product data from SAP Enterprise Buyer
-     Find supply sources
u201CTechnical Settingsu201D field
- Use Error Log
Thanks,
Desi

That means that we are not maintaining material numbers in SRM, so there are no predefined price or info records for that materials in R/3 system, or in SRM.
In the set up of external catalogues, validation of the price is set. Which means that, if a new shopping cart is created from already existing one, and meanwhile, a change of the price is done by the supplier in the catalogue, the new item price will be adopted in the shopping cart.
No prices are maintained in the SRM system, everything is from the supplier catalogue.

Contract price is zero in the shopping cart for backend contract

Hi
Our environment
SRM5.5 SP07
Classic scenario
Backend ECC 5.0
Business process
Created a Contract in ECC5.0 for services and Materials (Goods) separately.
While crating the shopping cart for services or Goods, contract is picked and showed up in the Source of supply section of the shopping cart.
But Contract price shows "0". Where as in backend a price is maintained in the contract for the services/Goods.
Before orderin the shopping cart, the Business users want to see the contract price in the shopping cart when a contract is assigned.
Question
How to show up the backend contract price in the shopping cart when a backend contract is picked up in the Source of supply section.
Is it standard? If so, any SAP notes are to be applied?
Did any one come accross this scenario. Please throw some light on the above issue.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Jagadish

Ruben
Thanks for your response.
I already looked at this option. This will not work for my business case.
The BADI can only change the data in the backgroung when a SC is saved and the user will not be able to view the backend Contract price before ordering the Shopping cart.
The users want to see the contract price when a backend Contract is assigned in the Source of Supply section before ordering the Shopping cart.

Jagadish

Price in Shopping Cart

We are implementing classic scenario in SRM 7.0. In our implementation we are not creating PRs from shopping but only POs will be created in ECC.
Even though Info Recrods are available and is shown in source tab on shopping cart, the price in the info record is not defaulted in the shopping cart. Any suggestions on how to bring Info records price into the shopping cart?

Change shopping cart

Hello all, I am confusing in a point, I have this issue:
I have a shopping cart with 1 item and 2 approvers
First approver reject the SC
Creator of shopping cart can change this shopping cart after the approver reject it?
When the shopping cart can be changed?
Thanks
Rosa

Hi ,
Whether the SC requester can change the SC or not is determined by the parameter "BBP_WFL_SECURITY" under the personlization tab in trascn PFCG for the SC creator role(e.g. EMPLOYEE role).
When the Approver rejects the SC,the witem is sent back to the requester informing him that the Sc has been rejected by the 1st approver and if he has the authorisation(based on the parameter BBP_WFL_SECURITY) to chnage the SC,he can change the SC and resend it for approval.Then the Sc will be again sent to the 1st approver for approval and the cycle continues.
To change the SC,the SC creator will be able to see a CHANGE button on the Screen to make the changes and resend the SC for approval.in order to get the change button, the parameter setting level should be atleast "Low".
See the foll details on security level:
Security Levels
Each user in the SRM system can have a Security Level.
The Security Level predicts how a workflow will react when a change has been made to a business docuement. I.e. A Shopping Cart, Purchase Order etc.
There are 5 different values for the BBP_WFL_SECURITY and there are several ways to check the security levels.
Checking the Security Level of a user
Here I discuss two ways to check the BBP_WFL_SECURITY of a user. The first is by using the Business Object Builder and the second is by using User Maintenance.
1) Business Object Builder: SWO1
Logon with a user who is authorized to access transaction SWO1 Business Object Builder.
Enter the Business Object for a SRM User BUS4101 and press 'Test'. Now press the 'Instance' button to give us the ability to examine the user. Enter the user name of the user and execute. Now we can see many of the attributes that are associated with this user. The Security level of the user is available here. The value is the BBP_WFL_SECURITY for the instanced user.
2) User Maintenance: SU01
Logon with a user who is authorized to access transaction SU01 User Maintenance.
Enter the 'Username' of the user. You can now see much of the data that is associated with this user. To check the users security level we must navigate to the 'Personalization Tab'. Now Double-Click on the object key 'BBP_WFL_SECURITY'.
Security Level Definition
As mentioned above, there are 5 different Security Level values that can be assigned to a user, each of which will have a different effect on a workflow when the associated business document has been changed. These range from 0-4 and they can be maintained for each user in User Maintenance (SU01 -> Personalization Tab -> BBP_WFL_SECURITY), provided the user you have logged on with has the ability to make changes to these settings.
Please note that if the customer has an active implementation of the BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI, it is possible that the BBP_WFL_SECURITY settings in the database can be overridden.
BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 4 High
If the user who changes the purchasing document has their security level set to 'High', the workflow will never restart after the change has taken place. No restart flag has been set in BBP_PDH_WFL_CHECK_RESTART. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 3 Medium
If the user who changes the purchasing document has their security level set to 'Medium', the workflow will re-evaluate the starting conditions of the workflow. If the change made to the document means that the starting conditions of a new workflow are satisfied, then the new workflow will be called and replace the old workflow. The existing workflow will be terminated.
If, however, no other starting conditions have been satisfied, then the workflow will continue. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 2 Low
If the user who changes the purchasing document has their security level set to 'Low', then the workflow will always restart after the change has been made. The restart flag in function module BBP_PDH_WFL_CHECK_RESTART will be flagged. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 1 None
Here the user does not have a security setting and changes to the document at not possible. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 0 Not Defined
When the setting is '0', however, the value is INITIAL. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
It is wise to note that depending on the business document there are differences in how changes will effect a workflow! Please see the function module BBP_PDH_WFL_CHECK_RESTART to see these exactly!
Workflow Security BADI
Occasionally, the business requirements of a company necessitate the ability to override the workflow security settings of users. In this case, function module BBP_PDH_WFL_SECLEVEL_GET checks if an active implementation of the BAdI BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI exists. If it does, then the logic contained in the BAdI will determine what security level is required. If not, then the value will be taken from the database as normal. These can be used specifically to determine whether a purchasing document can be changed during approval and also to determine how the workflow should behave when a change to the purchasing document has taken place.
