Material Replication from ERP to MDM (SRM-MDM Catalog)

Hi Experts,
I would like to replicate the material master from the ERP system into the MDM (SRM-MDM Catalog)?
I don't want to replicate the materials from ERP to SRM, and then from SRM to MDM.
1. Does ERP provide any transactions to achieve this ( like MECCM / MDM_CLNT_EXTR) ?
2. Is there a necessity to use the PI system in these communications? If so, what Integration Scenario I need to use in PI Enterprise Repository?
3. Any further changes to Materials in the ERP system should automatically replicate into the MDM system.
From SRM, I create SC with items from Materials in MDM.
Please let me know if you require more information.
Thanks
Kasee

Dear Krupa,
Thank you for your quick reply.
So we should consider the scenario where SRM is the central repository for the contracts, and all the changes done in SRM should be replicated to ERP.
In this scenario, do you know which steps should be done to allow contract replication from SRM to ERP? I already created a central contract in SRM but there is no message sent to PI.
Thanks in advance.

Andreia

Material replication from R/3 to SRM - Issue with Material group

Hello All,
                  I am working on BADI PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2 and method MAP_R3_TO_CRM_MATERIALMaterial replication part from R/3 to SRM.
I am using a Ztable to map r/3 material group to SRM material group(Product category).
For example Material M1 with material group 100 is transferred to SRM. Material group(Product category) 100 exist in SRM, but I am changing the material group to 200 in the product_customer2 badi. its working fine.
In another scenario, Material with material M1 with material group 300. Material group(product category) 300 does not exist in SRM,
I am changing the material group to 200 in the bdoc, in the product_customer2 badi. It is not working. The LUW is failing in SMQ2 transaction with the error "Error in Mapping (Details: transaction SMW01)". The BDOC is failing with error "Category for material group 300 does not exist"
I tried to deactivate the badi PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2, even then the FM MAP_BAPIMTCS_AND_PROCESS is validating the material group from R/3.
I tried to change the material group 300 to the existing material group 200 at initial stage in debugging in function module MAP_BAPIMTCS_AND_PROCESS but still the bdoc is failing with error "No storage form defined for product type 01 / logical system".
I am doing my testing using the following steps.
1. change the material descriptioni in MM02 in R/3.
2. An item is displayed in the queue in SMQ2 in SRM.
3. I have debugged the LUW and analyzed my badi by setting breakpoint at method MAP_R3_TO_CRM_MATERIAL, its changing the material group in the bdoc properly.
   that didnt work.
   also i tried to change the material group in the function module MAP_BAPIMTCS_AND_PROCESS before the badi is called.
4. I am checking the BDOc status using tcode SMW01 and checking the material using tcode COMMPR01.
can someone tell me how I can change the R/3 material group to SRM material group at the time of mapping in SRM?
Thanks
Sathish PM

Hi find below for the product cat
Steps to create the product category in SRM:
1) Create MM material groups in ECC client. This will create a transport. Go to SRM Tcode R3AS and select the object u201CDNL_CUST_PROD1u201D from the list and run it. You can monitor the job using R3AM1 in SRM. This will bring the material group into SRM. This can be seen in TCode u201CCOMM_HIERARCHYu201D in SRM.
2) Once it is done. Go to IMG in SRM and go to path SRM> SRM server> Cross app biz settings> Account aassigmnet> Define GL code for Acc *** Cat and Prod Cat. Maintain the GL code against this prod cat for all the account assignment codes. This is client specific setting and need to be done in every client by opening it. This GL code is given in the form in ticket.
3) Do a test and check if the product category is available for procurement in SC.

Overwriting Conditions data during Material Replication from R/3 to SRM.

Hi,
 When creating a new info record and then running the material replication program everything looks OK. However, if for the same material you create a new info record or change the existing info record and then run the material replication, some of the previous data is removed.
 We implemented BADI(PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2) to read info records from R/3. When i debug BADI all the info record and condition info is populated. Once the control leaves the BADI standard SAP code is not inserting/updating delta condition records. It is only populating latest info record.
 SRM 4.0
 Support pack level : 11
 BADI Name: PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2
 Method Name: MAP_R3_TO_CRM_MATERIAL
 Conditions Populated in structure : COMT_PROD_SERVICE_BDOC- CONDITIONS-CND_BBP_WORKING_SET.
Thanks in Advance,
Vineela.

Do you use IPC for pricing? I am not sure whether you can use R/3 4.6C with SRM5.5. Check your systems. Refer SAP notes 539720 if you are using simplified pricing (Classic scenario).
Also check for SAP OSS Notes - 394975 and 420343
Update of price in srm is possible through the SAP OSS Note 420343. This note describes an option to transfer a price from the Backend via a report and a BADI and to store this price in the condition table of the corresponding product in the EBP. But you have to do small changes,i think this note will certainly helps you to transfer material master prices to srm product master automatically.

Material Replication from R/3 to SRM - Object status stuck in Running mode

Hi Experts, I am new to this Forum and I am facing the following issue,
System Info :
SRM 5.0
ECC 6.0
I am trying to replicate two materials from the backend R/3 system and have set material filters on the SRM side.
The filters are Table: MARA, Field: MATNR, OP= Equality(=low), LOW = T-SRM13, inclusive defined.
The filters are Table: MARA, Field: MATNR, OP= Equality(=low), LOW = T-SRM113, inclusive defined.
This is my sequence of operations in SRM:
I deleted exisiting queues, started initial load and then activated the inbound Queues for my client.
Then when checking, Monitor Load objects in SRM, the status for Material is stuck in Running mode with an yellow sign.
Please let me know if you have any advice.

Hello,
First of all, check RFC queues in transatcion SMQ1 and SMQ2 for any detailed information.
Make sure if Your RFC user has SAP_ALL authorisation - if not add it and delete all material queues and run again.
Make shure if You run report BBP_PRODUCT_SETTINGS_MW with proper option and unchecked "Test mode". Once you have done this rerun your initial load for DNL_CUST_PROD0, DNL_CUST_PROD1, BASIS3 and MATERIAL.

How to Export Materials from ERP to MDM 7.1 via MDMGX?

Hello MDM-Experts,
as described in the Scenario Configuration Guide for MDM 7.1, we want to initialize our MDM repository with reference data (material) using XML-Files. Therefore, we have imported the fiel "71110_MATERIAL.a2a" in our repository. Now we want to fill it with the materials from out ERP-System without using PI/Xi.
We tested the transaction MDMGX in our ERP-System and are able to extract products and articles, but not materials (table mara). We also checked the document "How to configure MDM Reference Data Extraction", but found no solution for material. Could anyoune help?
Thanks & best regards
Matthias

Hi Matthias,
we recommend using PI as we have some XSLT mappings running on PI that you cannot use (easily) w/o PI. Additionally PI takes care of the correct routing from ERP to MDM.
Nevertheless a possible (but not recommended) way w/o PI would be via ALE and XML files. You can configure an ALE port in a way that it creates an XML file using the IDoc structure (see [SAP Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/EN/3f/faa288bb7911d2897f0000e8216438/content.htm]. ALE then places the file in the file directory of the application server instead of sending it via the IDoc Adapter to PI.
Best regards
Michael

Transfer Purchasing Organization from ERP to MDM

Hi friends.
In the SRM Scenario, Im want to transfer pur.org and suppliers.
How do I transfer Purchasing Organization values from ERP to MDM?
Also how do I transfer Suppliers from ERP to MDM?
Regards
Bala

Purchasing Organisation can be transferred from ERP to MDM using Transaction MDMGX (standard scenario).
And you can transfer Suppliers from SRM to MDM using standard report and PI interface.
Why you want to transfer Suppliers from ERP to MDM. Is there any specific requirement for this??? if yes, please can you explain the business process. I am curious to know this.

Vendor replication from R/3 to SRM

Hi,
I am using BBPGETVD for the vendor replication from R/3 to SRM.
I need to modify some fields related to Company data and Vendor data of the vendor during the replication (for example: Vendor should always be created with Invoice Receipt Expected check as checked, Transmission media as 'Mail' etc).
Can anybody tell me which BAdi or Exit i can use for this purpose.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I believe this thread should goto the dedicated forum for SRM.

Issue in product category replication from R/3 to SRM

Mehul G Shah: BACKGROUND:
We are in the process of replicating Material Group from R/3 to SRM
using transaction R3AR2 & R3AR4. Our Pre-Production server got
refreshed recently & this has caused all EBM data inclucing Logical
System & Destination being overwritten with EBP data.
We have maintained middleware paramaters, viz., CRMCONSUM, CRMRFCPAR,
CRMPAROLTP & also TBE11.
We have also maintained sites in CRM Middleware Monitoring Cockpit
using SMWP.
We have also tried after deleting entries in tables CRMPRLS (R/3) &
CRMMLSGUID (EBM) as suggested by SAP note 765018
We have followed steps mentioned in link /people/marcin.gajewski/blog/2007/02/05/how-to-replicate-material-master-from-r3-to-srm
(But we are not clear about site attributes which needs to maintain as per the CRM Middleware Monitoring Cockpit.)
ISSUE:
Material Group gets replicated to Product Category in SRM. However, the
Product Category gets replicated with Logical System which is not
maintained in EBM

Hi ,
Thanks 4 ur replay,i have maintained Site attributes,please give me detail of site attributes like which attributes should i maintain ?please give me descriptive answer.

Problem on Material Replication from R/3 to EBP

Hi friends,
I am having a problem on Material replication from R/3 to EBP. I had configured all the required settings in EBP as well as in R/3. Whenever we are starting initial loading R3AS I am getting outbound queues in EBP instead of R/3. I am getting the error like 'The current application triggered a termination'. I could able to replicate Vendor and Locations from R/3 to EBP. If anybody can solve this problem.
Thanx in advance.

Hi Ahmed,
Could you please elaborate. I am getting runtime error as 'Message_Type_X' (The current application triggered as termination with a short dump).
Thanks

Replicating authorization roles via HR replication from ECC 6 to SRM 5.0

Hi,
I'm interested in knowing whether anyone has used the distribution model to copy roles (AG objects) between ECC 6 and SRM 5.0.
Someone said that it's possible so I would like to validate that statement as I don't know whether it is possible and practical.
If you have any knowledge or experience could you please share it?
Regards,
Jerry

Hello Yann,
I was told that it can be done but I don't know enough about the HR replication process to acknowledge or challenge, hence the question.
Are you implying that it's not possible or simply that it's not done?
I had an earlier post regarding assigning roles to positions in SRM Replicating authorization roles via HR replication from ECC 6 to SRM 5.0 that you replied to but never replied to my subsequent question. It can be done because one of my other clients is doing it. We're however unable to get it work at my current client's site. Do you have any experience with this subject?
Regards,
Jerry

Material Replication from ECC to SRM 7.0

Hi Experts,
I am working on Extended classic scenario SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0, I have created the Material Group and Master data in ECC system. While doing replication via R3AS i am getting the following error msg( I have applied Note 720819 & 330401in ECC ).
Errors:
Hierarchy for material types does not exist
(Before materials are imported from the ERP system, the material types from the ERP system must exist as categories in CRM/EBP. When the Customizing object DNL_CUST_PROD1 is imported, the material types are imported automatically and created under the category MAT in the category hierarchy R3PRODSTYP (product subtype).)

SRM 7 - Contract replication from ERP to SRM

Hi all,
We have SRM 7 and ECC 6.0 and we have a requirement to have contract handling for invoices functionality, in SRM, in order to create invoices with reference to a contract directly.
We want to have ERP system as the central repository for all contracts, meaning that we need to replicate the contracts to SRM, and all the changes made to the contract in ERP side should also be replicated to SRM.
Does anyone know if this scenario can be done as per standard? And if so, how can we replicate the ERP contracts to SRM and ensure that all the changes made in ERP will be replicated to SRM?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
AN

Dear Krupa,
Thank you for your quick reply.
So we should consider the scenario where SRM is the central repository for the contracts, and all the changes done in SRM should be replicated to ERP.

Material replication from ECC to SRM

Dear SRM 7.0 Experts,
We are implementimg SRM 7.0 and we are trying to execute the Initial Load of materials into SRM 7 from ECC. We have completed all the Middleware settings and all the customising required for material replication. Whe we run the initial load (tcode R3AS) and select the first object DNL_CUST_BASIS3, it runs but the status remains "Running" in R3AM1. There is no errors in SMQ1as the entry runs and completes and therefore disappears. There is no errors recorded in SMW0 or SLG1 either. What could be the problem?
I checked in SMQ1 & SMQ2 as well, but there is no entries here for the object DNL_CUST_BASIS3. what we can do to resolve the issue ?
Regds,
Cb

Have you checked the outbound queue in backend R/3 system ?
Have you defined the additional user in CRMCONSUM table apart from the CRM user?
Verify and, if necessary, change or insert entries in tables CRMCONSUM and CRMRFCPAR as
described in SAP Note 430980. See also SAP Note 720819.
Hope this helps you.

Problems during material replication from SRM 5.0 to ECC 6.0

Hello all,
I tried to replicate material master from ECC to SRM but i am not successful.
System can able to replicate all the product categories but not the material.
System showing the process is done and it is showing green light when i drilldown.
Can any one ever had experienced such a problem?
Thank you
mahesh

Hi
Please go through this ->
Note 884208 - Unusable Middleware objects are provided
Note 872533 - FAQ - Middleware
As mentioned in SAP OSS note 872533, DNL_CUST_BASIS3 is obsolete, therefore, Please skip the download of the object DNL_CUST_BASIS3 and continue with DNL_CUST_PROD0, DNL_CUST_PROD1 and MATERIAL.
Following OSS note 872533, DNL_CUST_BASIS3 is obsolete.(Though OSS note mention DNL_CUST BASIS3 is obsolete for SRM 5.0, However, this customizing object does help in synchronizing the UOM from R/3 to SRM.)
However, it seems to still work in SRM50...
Related link ->
Re: UNIT OF MEASAUREMENT
As an alternative :
For ISO codes synchronisation, you can go to transaction CUNI -> ISO and then select "utilities" -> "adjustment".
A pop-up will be displayed to select the backend code

How to do an initial replication from R/3 to SRM 6.0?

Hello everyone,
We are working in a implementation of SRM with R/3. My question is about how I can replicate the existing information in R/3 (PR, PO, Invoices, etc) to SRM (as an initial replication). Especially, I wonder if the documents that are in process have to be finished in R/3 or they can be finished in SRM.
Thanks
Ivá

Hi Ivan,
In addition to what Masa and Claudia has informed,
mainly the Material Master, Vendor Master, Plants, Storage locations, UOM, Currencies will get transferred from R/3 to SRM irrespective of your implementation scenario (i.e Classic or Extended classic ).
In case you work on classic scenario, the main document (leading document) P.O will be in R/3.
In case of Extended classic scenario, the leading document P.O is in SRM and a copy will be created in R/3 but is not changeable in R/3.
You can have G.R (confirmation) and invoice in both the systems. In case you create in SRM a copy will be created in R/3. In case you create in R/3 the status gets updated in SRM.
Hope this makes you more clear.
