Enterprise structure in SAP SRM

Hi,
I am new to SAP SRM. I would like to know where do we set the enterprise structure (Creating & assigning organisational elements like Company code, Plants, Purchase Organisation & so on) in SAP SRM like the way we do in R/3?
I tried searching in SRM Wiki, but couldn't locate. Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Murthy

Use PPOMA_BBP for creation of or structure, assignment of attributes etc....
Use BBPGETVD for vendor master replication
Use R3AS for material master replication
use FM for location(plant) replication

Technical Help on creation of an Object in SAP SRM 4.0

Being on SAP SRM 4.0, we currently have a requirement for creation of Need Definition( Basically a build up for the contract ). Need being collected from the Backend systems need to be validated and approved by Buyers & Lead Buyers in the SRM system.
Technically, this task is broken down to below tasks.
1) Creation of need definition screen - Basically a template where a need can be created with Items, Sub Items and other related information
2) Selection Screen for Buyers and Lead Buyers - This enables the the Buyers to select the Need Definition assigned to them based on the status.
3) Report - List of all the Need Definition( Item and Sub Item)satisfying the selection of step 2. with the possibility to navigate to the Need Definition screen ( Step 1) upon selection.
Now the question is,
what technology is recommended for the above Tasks? We thought it would be BSP but do you guys have any suggestions...
Do we have any issues in displaying the report in BSP? please let me know
Remember we are version 4.0 of SRM.
Thanks in Advance..
Mohan.

Even though I don't have much knowledge on BSP, it should be a good option. Since SAP has used BSP to develop new screens in SRM 5.0.

Establishing a connection between SAP SRM and MM

Dear All,
I am working for a multi-national company and now we are thinking to implement SAP SRM but I have some questions about communication between SAP MM and SRM. Firstly I want so share with you our as-is status and then my doubts and question that I have.
In our case we have two different locationed organizations which are using different version of SAP system and SAP MM. In this two sap system mostly codes are and descriptions are different for all materials and now we want gather all data and we want to have one global code system and (local code also will remain). I mean we want to call same materials with one global unique code instead of two different codes. We are thinking to implement something like coding center that will take local master data from local organization then will assign global code, update table then with somehow will update SAP SRM.
For example:
We have local master data on R/3 is maintained manually by local user and net item is created locally each country by local user.Coding center will be aware of new creation by mail, automatically. Coding center will update table (adding a new row for each new item) on translator (tool for assigning global code for materials) assign to each new item a global code and category and in this way SRM will be updated automatically based on translator.
I am thinking to develeop a tool (excel,access etc.) that will take new item creation manually or auto from local organization then will assign a global code and category then will update SAP SRM automatically
Regarding to tool I have some questions:
1)     which are the standard communication channel between R/3 and SRM or How they can speak with each other ?
2)     Is there any standart batch file (BI or BAPI) to be able to perform this.Is it possible to develop tool using excel or access etc. which will manage coding task.
3)     When we are trasferring for the first time Master Data from MM to SRM is there any standard transaction?
4)     how the two MD are aligned (i.e. what if a new item is created or modified on MM)?
5)     standard program (transaction) for aligning available ?
6)     ) how this process can be triggered (scheduled using SAP scheduler, event or user driven)
7)     Where the translator (tool) should be (R/3 local, SRM, BW, other) --> Enrichment table
8)     How we can build the communication transaction?
Thank you very much
Any comments and answers will appreciated and rewarded

Hi,
Have you considered using CCM. You generally use an industry standard code (perhaps UNSPSC) in CCM as your vendors would all have different number (similar to your scenario). CCM is a plug-in to SRM, supplied by SAP.
The authoring tool is where you can enrich your catalogue, and have approval dependant on rules that you setup. In your case you would possibly have a catalogue per locationed organisation (or R/3 system). These would then be mapped to a master catalogue, and assigned to users as views. This tool is a BSP on SRM. You could also upload these catalogues from Excel (as a CSV) or through XI as XML. We use the automatic transfer of materials from R3 and then there is a report in SRM to feed that through to the catalogue.
The only thing that needs to be thought through is how you feed the selected catalogue item back to the differing R3 systems, but this shouldn't be a stumbling point.
Cheers

What is the Role of SAP PI in SAP SRM?

Hello Gurus
I'm from SAP-XI background.
In my project I need to create a scenario from SRM ---> PI/XI ---> MDM.
I'm having the below queries regarding this scenario.
1) Do I need to download the "XI CONTENT for SRM SERVER and import it into PI server.
2) If so what is the exact location in the service market place from which I can download
3) What are the steps that need to be done between SRM and PI and also in SLD so that data will be sent from SRM to PI.
Can anyone answer my queries.
Thanks and Regards,
Pruthvi

Hi Pruthvi,
Mentioned below are the list of output medium for SAP SRM.
1. Email.
2. Fax.
3. Print.
4. XML.
Whenever SRM want to send data to another system in XML format and if you are not using SOA then PI is very much required to transfer the XML data to the target system. When you integrate SRM with ECC 6 EHP 4 or higher version then many documents are transmitted in XML format only and XML document is sent out of SRM using ABAP Proxy.
Since the XML data is sent out via ABAP proxy you have to import the integration objects for SAP SRM into SAP NetWeaver PI. you can find the same in the below location.
https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=00200682500000001943&_EVENT=DISPHIER&HEADER=N&FUNCTIONBAR=Y&EVENT=TREE&TM…
Steps involved :
1. Deploy the integration objects of SAP SRM into SAP NetWeaver PI.
2. Update the SLD with new business system data.
3. Check Active Process Integration in the transaction SPRO in SRM .
4. Go through the below steps :
     1) One RFC of type H to point to PI with all the details.
     2) Define the role of the business system in the server that you want to see(Sxmb_Adm)
     3)Connection between Business System and System Landscape Directory.
     3a)RFC destination LCRSAPRFC of type T for SLD connection.
     3b)RFC destination SAPSLDAPI of type T for SLD connection.
     4)Maintain the SAP J2EE Connection parameters for LCRSAPRFC and SAPSLDAPI in SAP J2EE      Engine
     5)Maintain SLD access details in Transaction SLDAPICUST.
     Please refer the section 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3 and 1.3.4 in the document(as linked provided below)
SLDAPICUST should point to the SLD host server. If you have a central SLD installed on the Dev server, then it is ok that it is using the host and port of the Dev server.
PIAPPLUSER is the normal user that is used in trx SLDAPICUST (the user must have the role SAP_XI_APPL_SERV_USER).
'Lastly, will the gateway Server of SAPSLDAPI and LCRSAPRFC will be the same for both DEV and QAs systems in XI?'
5. Make the necessary confirmation in Integration directory for the relevant interfaces.

How to customize purchase order smartform BBP_PO in SAP SRM 7.0?

Hi friends,
I am new to SAP, as well as to SRM world. Currently I have a object with me from purchase order smartform in SRM. My job is to copy the standard PO form named BBP_PO into "Z" form and to make customizations in the copied one. I don't have idea about how to proceed with it. Please give me some idea about required processing classes, methods, BADI's, FM's etc,.. Can anyone please tell me how to do this job? I am a fresher so if you help me in this means, it would be very helpful for me and for my future.
Thanks and regards,
Siva

Hello Siva,
I searched and found the below steps ...
why dont you try the same !
How to customize an existing Standard Smart form in SRM - Overview.
1. Copy existing Standard smart form in SRM, let us say, BBP_PO into "Z'' Smart form in Transaction SMARTFORMS.
2. Do changes in Z Smart form add Desired Logos in Smart form using SE78 and SMARTFORMS transactions.
3. Change in Jargon: Unlike ECC we will not have Driver program (in SE38), you will find Processing class and Processing method ( in SE24) for SRM Smart forms, where we write extraction logic.
4. So, In case of SRM we should replace the (word) "Driver Program" with (the word) "Processing Class" and Perform as "Processing Method".
5.Where to Link: Processing Class, Processing Method and Smart form? In SPRO, SRM Server -> Cross Apps -> Set Output Actions and Output Format -> Define Actions for Purchase Order Output -> Action definition -> Processing types, then select standard PO.
6. If we are using (Completely- New) Custom Smart Form instead of Changing Standard Smartform, then Do change any settings in Step5, Otherwise, if you are planned to modify existing Smartform, with Small logic changes, format changes and Logo Changes then, Just Implement BADI - BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF in SE19 transaction.
7. Put a simple code in BADI as... CASE IV_OBJECT_TYPE.
When 'BUS2201' .
CV_SMARTFORM = 'Z_CustomSF'.
ENDCASE
8. Don't forget, you already copied Std Smartform into Custom Smartform say Z_CustomSF.
9. I am using BUS2201 only becuase I was trying to change BBP_PO Smartform which is a Purchase Order Smartform.
Hope this helps!

Regarding SAP SRM Inbox configuration

Hello Guys,
We are in the process of configuring the SRM workflow approvals in Portal.
We made the basic mandatory configurations and we are able to see the workitems in the UWL.
But unfortunately, we need configure the Inbox iView comes with the SAP SRM business package to work.
With the configurations recommended, we manage to get the workitems in the standard Inbox iView.
Only the header items are shown and when opened, a new window opens with just the header. Information of the workitems are not shown. But the same is shown in Universal Worklist.
We are just wondering what could be wrong.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks and Regards,
Vivek

Hello Siddharth,
Thanks for the quick response.
I think it is POWL. After making some entries in the SRM system table, we are able to get the workitems in the Inbox view, but no details were displayed.
We tries modifying the xml
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.srm.TS93107952" connector="WebFlowConnector"
defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchSAPAction" executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_SRM" externalType="TS93107952" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
<Action name="launchSAPAction" groupAction="" handler="SAPIACLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes"
launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
<Properties>
<Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
<Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
<Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
<Property name="IAC" value="BBPCF02"/>
</Properties>
</Actions>
</ItemType>
We just want to see the workitem details like we do in the UWL.
Thanks and regards,

Reports in SAP SRM

The client I am working with is on SAP SRM 7.01 with a standalone scenario. Only when the invoice is posted and 3-way match is done, the follow-on documents are created in SAP. This is severely limiting the client to run reports in SAP SRM for day to day use.
The client wants to run the following reports:
Report 1: A report that shows the following columns and can be run in SRM GUI.
Company Code, PO #, Line #, Ordered Quantity, Unit Price, UOM, Received Quantity, Invoiced Quantity
Report 2: A report that shows the following columns and can be run in SRM GUI.
Company Code, Invoice #, Supplier Name, WBS/Cost Center #, Invoice Amount, Invoice Create Date, Invoice Status
Also, the client wants to extend these reports and create new ones based on the requirements.
Any ideas on how to create these reports are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kartikeya dixit,

3.Get the RFQ number, Created At i.e. object_id and created date.
4.Item details can be obtained
5.Bidder details can be obtained for partner_fct=”00000018”.From table BUT000 the fields partner, name_org1 can be obtained to print the Supplier code and supplier name.

What is the best approach to capture TBOM's for a SAP SRM system/functionality?

Hello SCN Community,
It would be much appreciated if somebody could share some information about the following....
What is the best approach to create TBOM's for a SAP SRM system? The SRM functionality is basically consisting out of multiple ABAP Web Dynpro's that are connected as a process via a SAP Portal (as is understand it). The entrypint to the SRM functionality is via the SAP Portal.
Do I first have to create a link to the Portal via an SAP Web Application link in SOLAR01 and then start recording? Will it record only the portal objects or also the ABAP Web Dynpro objects?
Do I have to list all the separate ABAP Web Dynpro's in SOLAR01 and use those as a starting point?
I am myself more familair with more classical SAP ABAP ECC systems and transactions. I could hardly find any information on the use of BPCA and the required TBOM's in the area of SRM.... Any help would be much appreciated!
Kind Regards,
Guido Jacobs

Hi Guido,
today was a new blog released, maybe this helps:

SAP SRM UI (NXP) - Work Processes remain running

Background:
Shopping carts are being processed through the new SAP SRM UI (NXP). On occasion, dialog Work Processes are left in 'running' status even when there is nothing happening in the front end.
It occurs for many standard programs, but when checking the WP details, all are pointing to the same class
/IWFND/CL_MGW_RUNT_RCLNT_PRXY and function module /IWBEP/FM_MGW_CHANGESET.
The /IWFND/*_LOG transactions aren't showing any errors or warning
I haven't found any relevant SAP notes.

QUESTION:
At the moment, I'm interested in a BASIS perspective; I want to ensure the platform (SRM_SERVER, GW_CORE, UI5, SRMNXP01, etc) is stable and functional. However, I'm not familiar with debugging / tuning / administrating the SAP Gateway (I still think SMG when I hear Gateway), so these may have fairly obvious answers to the right people, but ...
1) What or where should I be looking for further clues ? My first thoughts are around the available network connections.
2) Is there a transaction that provides real time monitoring of GW CORE ? I've found that the /IWBEP/VIEW_LOG and /IWFND/*_LOG transactions are only useful after the fact.
thanks

Hello Martin,
such hanging work processes can have many causes. Which AIX version do you have? Please take a look at the note
1873277 - Hanging Work processes on SAP Application Servers
if it can be relevant in your case.
