Multiple Preferred Vendors in Source of Supply -Shopping cart

Hi SRM Gurus,
While Creating Shopping Cart, the requestor need to assign multiple (more than one) preferred vendors as Sources of Supply.
I could able to choose only one preferred vendor. How can we choose, more than one preferred vendor.
Thanks in advance,
Ramkumar

Hi
SRM does not allows this functionality to have multiple fixed vendors for a single line item.
There can be multiple preffered vendors displayed in the search results. But at a time, only one vendor can be assigned to a line item as a fixed vendor.
In SRM system, even if you programmatically using BADI - BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, try to assign more than one vendors to aline item, you cannot order that shopping cart further.
<b>So, not possible.</b>
Hope this will help.

  • Add UDF in ITM2 - Items - Multiple Preferred Vendors

    Hi Experts,
    Can any one help me in creating UDF in ITM2 - Items - Multiple Preferred Vendors Table?
    Requirement is, a given item can have different vendors with different Quantity per Packaging UoM, Items per Purchase Unit
    Packaging UoM (Purchasing), Lead Time, Order Multiples etc.,
    Or is there any other accomplishments other than UDT & UDF.
    Advance Thanks

    Hi Gordon,
    I hope ITM2 - Items - Multiple Preferred Vendors not a UDT, which captures Vendors Codes in Purchasing Tab of Item Master Data.
    Version : SAP Business One 8.81 (8.81.315) PL: 07
    The requirement in brief: Our client deal with many items generally purchased from different vendors. So there are chances that one item can be purchased from different vendors. The information like Packaging UoM, Items per Purchase Unit, Packaging UoM (Purchasing), Lead Time, Order Multiples etc vary from Vendor to Vendor because of Country of Origin.
    In Purchase Order Document Entry screen the user needs all the above mentioned information in Row Level for their data entry with respect to Vendor Code + Item No. selected.
    Hope you can understand now. Pl help us.
    Thanks.

  • SRM 7.0 duplicated supplier in vendor list source of supply

    Hi Expert! I need your help about a srm vendor list issue.
    A customer of mine uses srm vendor list to group suppliers in order the services or goods their offer.
    It has been implemented an automatic process to insert the supplier in the specific vendor list. The process, before insert the supplier check if the one is not already present.
    For about one years all was working fine.
    Now we get duplicate rows on some vendor lists, I mean same row number, same supplier and so on.
    Attached to this document a system screenshoot.
    Is there any one able to give me a way to delete these duplicated rows?
    Thanks

    Daniele,
    it could be due to multiple purchasing org. assignment to the suppliers.

  • Fixed vendor getting selected in the Shopping cart by mistake

    Hi,
    We are on SRM_SERVER 550, SP07 and SAP R/3 - 4.7.
    We are on classic scenario.
    Our Scenario: When users order the cart with preferred vendor, the cart will go through approval and once the approval WF gets completed and cart item moves to sourcing cockpit (carry out sourcing). Here the buyers create the PO in the backend.
    But we observed one issue recently. For one particular material id, there is a fixed vendor getting chosen. User enters the preferred vendor, system chooses a fixed vendor--> So the cart doesnt go to sourcing and the PO gets created after the approvals are over.
    I checked if there were any Purchase info records maintained in SAP for this vendor material combination, but there were none.
    There are also no vendor lists maintained.
    Is there any other way a fixed vendor can be picked up in a shopping cart?
    Please let us know .
    Regards,
    Srivatsan

    Hi Srivatsan,
    1) create a new SC and set on hold.
    2) set a breakpoint in the function B45A_SOURCEDETERMIN_GETSOS at the point:
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_SOURCEDETERMIN_GETSOS'       <----- here
                DESTINATION destination
    3) execute the FM BBP_PD_SC_TRANSFER with the GUID of the SC (from the step 1)
    If you have a dialog user in the bakcend, you can debug the SOS find in the backend. If you just need the result, doubleclick on the sources_of_supply:   
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_SOURCEDETERMIN_GETSOS'
          DESTINATION destination
          EXPORTING
            material              = material
            mat_grp               = mat_grp
            plant                 = plant
            deliv_date            = deliv_date
            quantity              = quantity
            unit                  = unit
            item_cat              = item_cat
            acctasscat            = acctasscat
            purch_org             = purch_org
            fixed_vend            = fixed_vend
            pckg_no               = pckg_no
            unit_iso              = unit_iso
          TABLES
            sources_of_supply     = sources_of_supply    <--- check the result here
            return                = return

  • Enter a vendor error message for catalog shopping carts

    Hi Viewers,
    I am facing problem while creating PO in backend R/3 system by using catalog shopping carts.
    Procedure:
    I have created catalog shopping cart with vendor.
    when i click on order button shopping cart has been created successfully.
    But when i see the history in BBP_PD transaction it went to error.
    I can see the error message in RZ20 transaction under SAP B2B Procurement - Monitors -->Shopping Basket as follows:
    "Shopping cart 3000841126 (PO 2000251272): 06 049 Enter a vendor"
    Is there any config settings missed out or anything else need to do for the same.
    while transferring data from shopping cart to banckend system vendor is initialising.
    Please help me how to fix the issue.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Prashanth P.

    Hi Prashanth,
    This is very strange, please check if any of the following BADI's    
    are active, if so please temporarily deactivate them and retest. These would be the most likely cause of this as there are no notes about this. Also very few other customers with similar issue.     
    BBP_CREATE_BE_RQ_NEW                                                 
    BBP_CREATE_BE_PO_NEW                                                 
    BBP_CREATE_REQ_BACK                                                  
    BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK                                                   
    BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI                                                  
    Hope this helps,

  • Automatic PO with preferred vendor

    Hi all.
    We Have SRM 5.0 ECS
    I need to generate an automatic PO from a SC, this contains like source of supply the Preferred Vendor and price, in this type of purchase I do not use contracts
    This is possible?

    Hi Raul,
    As it is clear from your statement that you are not using Contracts and you are talking about Free Form text Shopping Carts where you can enter Prefferred Vendor. You need to implement Doc Change BAdI to convert this preferred Vendor to fixed Vendor so that after approval Shopping Cart creates a PO.
    Here is the sample code we had implemented for the very same purpose
    BAdI BBP_DOC_CHANGE
    METHOD if_ex_bbp_doc_change_badi~bbp_sc_change.
    data: ls_partner type BBP_PDS_PARTNER.
    loop at et_partner into ls_partner.
        if ls_partner-partner_fct = '00000039'. "Preferred vendor
          ls_partner-partner_fct = '00000019'.  "Fixed vendor
          modify et_partner from ls_partner.
       endif.
      endloop.
    ENDMETHOD.
    Thanks

  • Preferred Vendor & Vendor Issue in SC

    Hi Friend's
    Currently i am working with Extended Classic Scenario's
    Shopping Cart was created with both the field (Preferred Vendor & Vendor) Here Vendor Filed normally creates from the catalog But
    Whenever user copied the same shopping carts and user can able to create shopping cart with Vendor & Preferred vendor filed getting updated
    Note:
    Either one filed should be updated
    Can any one tell me what would be the reason?
    Thanks
    Shrini

    Yes shrini. it comes due to OLD PURCHASE ORDER templates.
    if you  dont want this. end user must have delete the vendor before he order a shopping cart source of supply.
    indeed it confuses business too.
    step 1 :- create a sc with prefered sos
    step 2:- sc goes to cockpit
    step 3:- buyer hold a car in the cockpit now you get parter function 19 in bbp_pd 19 .and supplier comes int basic data
    step 4:- create a PO from cockpit
    sptep 5:- go to OLD Purchase order templates and now u see vendor picked as FIXED vendor .
    step 6:- PO created
    stpe 7:- check sc sos VENDOR XXX and preferred VENDOR XXXX.
    this manner you might confused

    Hello Lisa,
    We have the exact problem described above and applied 1656774 but did not resolve the issue. You indicated that there is a prerequisite. And wow do we find out the prerequisites?
    While apply the following errror was being noticed
    Syntax error

    Okay – this is an update – The fix would work but you want to make sure that  1576240 has to be first implemented  and then only you can implement 1656774. The issue is resolved.

  • Preferred vendor field

    Hello All,
    We are in SRM 5.0 with SRM server 550 on SP11, we are going for BR deployment.
    In the basic data when the vendor number is entered in Preferred vendor field, the system doesn't holds the vendor and it disappears and gives the error message ' Please enter vendor'
    Any pointers for resolving this issue.
    Rgds,
    Madhan

    Hi Madhan
    did you enter a vendor in source of supply field
    PREFERED VENDOR - DID YOU SEARCH A VENDOR ?
    IN BASIC DATA --not . IN THE BASIC DATA VENDOR WILL BE STICKED AFTER YOU ASSIGN A FIXED SOURCE OF SUPPLY.

    You can create custom fields in Shopping cart uisng a BADI and can populate the information.
    BBP_CUF_BADI can be used to create customer fields.
    Please get discuss with your ABAP fellow for the creation of customer field.

  • Shopping cart not in sourcing cockpit

    Hi
    I created a shopping cart. It has been approved and shows as status approved when I search for it in "monitor shopping cart". I have checked the source_rel_ind and this is X. But when I check the sourcing cockpit, my shopping cart is not there.
    I checkedthe application logs too and there is nothing in there.
    Any idea where the shopping cart could go to?
    Kind regards

    Hi,
    What is your scenario?
    Do you remember for which product category this SC is created?
    Check your config in both these places : Define objects in backend system and Sourcing --> Define sourcing for product categories.
    Based on these two config in SPRO the SC will be converted into PR, PO or will be in sourcing cockpit if you dont have any other technical BADI's available.
    See BBP_PD and check for the status whether it is approved or item in transfer process or followon document created and then look into monitor shopping cart.
    Best regards,
    Sridhar.

  • Vendor Selection in Shopping Cart

    Hi
    We are having nearly 20 company codes with in SAP and 5 company codes are using EBP.
    At the moment, all vendors designated for EBP are available when creating a shopping cart.
    Problem: User doesn't knows by looking at the vendor whether that vendor has been extended to their company code or not.
    What we need: We are looking something like where we can search the vendor for a company code etc., in the vendor search while creating the shopping cart.
    Is this something possible?
    I am on the business side of the EBP not a techy of EBP.
    --erpMAN-

    How did you solve this issue.  I have the same requirement from my business.  They want to narrow down the vendor search help by company code.  The purchasing organization option will not help as we only have 1 purchasing organization set up for the entire organization even though we have hundreds of company codes.
    Thanks,

  • Shopping cart Document does not exist error while PO creation

    Hi Friends,
      We are in SRM 5.0 Extended Classic and ECC6.0. I am experiening a issue while sourcing. After shopping cart is created and ends up in sourcing cockpit, I try to create PO, I get the error 'Shopping cart Document does not exist'. I verified Number ranges, org structure, and config settings but unable to find a solution.
    This is at a critical stage where I am not able to create PO and hence process is not complete. I am not able to proceed further and need advise on how or where to look for possible issues. I did look at the other SDN postings but was not pertaining to mine.
    Thanks
    Rao

    hI
    Did you get below error message  **** pit.
    Data not found
    Document does not exist
    i believe the error message will not stop you to do sourcing.
    select and assigned to work area and assign source of supply and create a Purchase order.
    i also faced this error long back.

  • Shopping Cart and PO creation - Classic Scenario

    Hi,
    SRM 5.0 - Classic Scenario
    User U-1 is under the company code C-1
    Shopping Cart SC-1 has been created successfully for the Product Category PC-1
    Product Category PC-1 has been assigned to Purchasing Org. POrg-1
    <b>Question 1)</b>
    But back-end POrg-1 has NOT been assigned to Company Code C-1. What will happen to this SC-1 ? Will the PO be created ?
    <b>Question 2)</b>
    Next....Vendor V-1 has been assigned as Source for the Shopping Cart SC-1.But Vendor V-1 has NOT been extended to the Purchasing Org POrg-1. But it has been extended to the POrg-2.
    Will the above SC-1 will be converted as PO ?
    Please help. Currently I am doing blueprint. I don't have the system to do the above test.
    With regards,
    Pranav

    Hi Pranav,
    Here are answers to your questions;
    Question 1)
    But back-end POrg-1 has NOT been assigned to Company Code C-1. What will happen to this SC-1 ? Will the PO be created ?
    <b>
    Sundeep: No, This PO will be in "Error in Transmission" with a backend application error for a PO. Same as trying to create it directly in ECC, it will error</b>
    Question 2)
    Next....Vendor V-1 has been assigned as Source for the Shopping Cart SC-1.But Vendor V-1 has NOT been extended to the Purchasing Org POrg-1. But it has been extended to the POrg-2.
    Will the above SC-1 will be converted as PO ?
    <b>Sundeep: No, it is same as trying to create a PO in ECC directly, it will not allow you to create it. Also this scenario is not practical, as in reality, when you replicate vendors from a backend, it will replicate all Porgs that the vendor is created with, hence this scenario concern is ruled out !</b>
