No valid source of supply could be found

Dear SAP Gurus,
In the costing run, we foundout the error for the material XXXX as "No valid source of supply could be found". Please suggest
Checked up in the purchasing data everything is defined

Dear,
Message no CK380 or CK776 No valid source of supply could be found.
The error does not occur, if The source list contains 2 valid entries for 2 vendors
either the source list or the quota arrangement has been maintained.
one of the two entries is removed in the source list or in the quota arrangement.
Or check Purchase Info-record need to create with Subcontract Category.

Dear,
F means Externally Procured Item, so system will not allow you to create Cost Estimate.
Please change it to E and then create Cost Estimate, it will work.

No valid source of supply could be found - while running the cost estimate

Hi all,
We are running the material cost estimate for a subcontracting material. The costing is giving an error saying "No valid source of supply could be found".
We have checked
1. Purchase info record
2. Source list
3. Valid dates are maintained for the condition records for the info record.
Still we are getting the error.
Can somebody help on this ?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Karpagam Srinivasan

Dear Karpagam,
Please check these points,
Are you sure you have created a Purchase Info Record in ME11 for a Sub-contratcing process?
Sometimes you would have crated a standard Purchase Info Record.
Maintain procurement type as F and special procurement value 30 in the MRP2 view of the material
master for that material.
As you have mentioned PIR,Source list already exists,please check this and come back.

Costing Run Error: No Valid Source of Supply

Hi Experts,
   I am new to Costing,
    While executing Costing Run for a matrial ABC in plant XXX with a Costing Run 111, I get an error No valid source of supply could be found
but when I run the Costing Run for Same material for sam plant with different Costing Run It gets executed properly.
I have read the thread related to it where it is giving reference to note 713111, 499699 and 422926 but there is no check for Source List in Material master.

Use OKKN as Jigar says.
Select the costing variant that you are using and then click on "valuation variant"
Look at the tab for subcontract - this will show what the costing variant is useing to creat cost estimates with.
Your options for subcontracting are:
2 Effective Price from Quotation Without Fixed Costs
3 Net Quotation Price
4 Gross Quotation Price
5 Effective Price from Quotation
6 Effective Price from Purchase Order Without Fixed Costs
7 Net Purchase Order Price
8 Gross Purchase Order Price
9 Effective Price from Purchase Order
If your material has a Special Procuremnet key 30 - then one of these strategies has to be used.

hi
you have to maintain purchase info records for subcontracting material, TCODE Me11, procurement type in material master F, special procurement type 30.
In the costing variant assigned check valuation variant strategy for subcontracting

Hi Nitin,
there seems to be an issue with the xml in the request body.
As an approach, you could try to send two separate requests, in order to check if the creation of the parent entity works and then use the specified link and check if the creation of the child entity works with the given xml. This could help to clarify which part of the xml is actually rejected
I've copied below the xml of a deep insert that works for me.
It is the request body of a POST request sent to the BusinessPartnerCollection of the service ZGWSAMPLE_SRV that can be found here:
https://sapes1.sapdevcenter.com/sap/opu/odata/sap/ZGWSAMPLE_SRV?sap-ds-debug=true
Hope it helps a bit.

Carlos

Error 'No valid source context supplied' for getEntity / getEntitySet call

Hi All
we have configured our ECC system with IW_BEP and Gateway as standalone system. We have developed the Gateway Services using SEGW in backend ECC system and have registered these services on Gateway system.
However when we are executing getEntity or getEntitySet methods in Browser or Gateway Client, the call is failing with error message 'No valid source context supplied.'
I checked the error log for this issue and it says Deserialization of XML failed via transformation ''. Can you guys suggest what could be the issue with this error? Is this due to in-correct configuration? In our Gateway system, we have created System-Alias for ECC system with both check-boxes for Local GW & For Local App as unticked. The RFC destination underlying this System alias is working fine.
Please help me on this.
Regards,
Deepak Salokhe

Hello Deepak,
OK thanks for sharing the info regarding Key.
Can u try checking why its failing in method /IWBEP/CL_MGW_REMOTE_HANDLER-->REQUEST_PROCESS ?
Only way is to debug Deepak. Since error is not specific we nned to debug in these kind of cases and try to know y its failing. This might help and we may get some info which will help fixing things.
This problem is only happening for this particular service ? or its happening for all the services ?
Check this first. If its happening for rest of the services then problem is something else with the GW/BE components only. If not then its service specific.
Can u try regenerating objects again and check ?

Ashwin

CALL TRANSFORMATION on Unicode WebAS 6.20: No valid source context supplied

Hello,
in the last day's I was stuck into a strange problem. I had to develop a Web Service Client on our Web AS 6.20 Unicode system. I followed the Blog <a href="/people/durairaj.athavanraja/blog/2004/09/20/consuming-web-service-from-abap">Consuming Web Service from ABAP</a>. The problem was that my CALL TRANSFORMATION always throwed an exception "No valid source context supplied". I've tested the transformation with a local copy of the XML the Web Service returned and it works quite well. I had a look into the Documentaion of CALL TRANSFORMATION and it says:
== Documentation Quote Begin ==
Addition 3a
... SOURCE XML sxml
Effect
Specification of the transformation source
Transfer the XML document sxml using addition 3a. The following three possibilities exist for specifiying sxml:
The XML document can be in an ABAP variable sxml of the type STRING or XSTRING or in an internal standard table sxml of the elementary line type C.
== Documentation Quote End ==
So there should be no difference between STRING and XSTRING. But there is a difference! Here is my testcase which I've derived from my Blog <a href="/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2006/06/27/geocode-business-partner-with-google-maps">Geocode Business Partner with Google Maps</a>:

Project Server 2010 - Unable to open project, no valid Project Detail Page could be found for the project error

I have a workflow being deployed for the first time on a farm. When I create a project with an EPT connected to the workflow it runs and can enter the required field in a PDP. Then I Submit the workflow to go to the next stage and I get the "Unable
to open project, no valid Project Detail Page could be found for the project" error. After that the project is stuck on the same error. All of the 18 stages have PDP and Schedules assigned to them.
Any ideas on why the workflow cannot see the PDPs? Is there a farm permissions that I am missing? Thanks!

thx Anup but still no success.
I am thinking whether we should do any repositories consitency check after upgrade? any manual adjustments? this is a standard component crmcmp_hdr.
the error seems to be caused by implementing note 0001358764 before upgrade in CRM 7.

Backend Source of Supply not supported for Direct Material in SRM

Hi ,
When creating S/C or PO in SRM for Direct Material , backend Source of Supply ( i..e Purchasing Info Record or Backend Contracts ) not availble to select as a sourc of supply .
In our case, we are planning to maintain the sourc of supply (PIR or Contracts) in back end MM system only , then how can pick up the same ?
Can anyone please suggest on this .
Regards
NAP

NO Prashanta,
It is still pending for me . i just raised OSS message to SAP ...but SAP saying that
" I checked and found that in the classic scenario , Direct Materials cannot use backend contracts. The behavior described above is in accordance with the system design. Only local sources of supply (local contracts and interlinkages) can be
used in the direct material scenario, as well as as in the extended classic scenario . Therefore the above error message which you get "Specify a valid contract" is valid."
I replied with the doubt that "Thanks for reply but we are not convenience, since what we learnt from
different SAP Blogs, Below SAP help and SRM Experts discussion forum
is, for Ext Classic Scenario (since for direct materials it always
tales by default Ext Classic Scenario, although we implemented Classic)
Local SRM contract and Supplier List are the possible Source of Supply.
As per SAP help documentation for Self-Service Procurement (Extended
Classic) on below link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/en/e0/f6be5157a24340bf7b1279854a52e1/frameset.htm u201CYou can assign the sources proposed by the
system to items automatically (for example, if there is a single
contract for the item being procured) or manually in the case of a
quota arrangement, contract, or supplier from a supplier listu201D
As per SAP help documentation for Sourcing Using Supplier Lists on
below link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/en/d8/33ec56f17f4404806072749f7e764f/frameset.htm u201CIn supplier lists, you can also manually allocate
back-end contracts from specific systems. This enables more effective
sourcing for back-end contractsu201D
In the Supplier List there is facility to enter the ECC Contract
Number. Supplier List donu2019t support local SRM contract. It supports
only ECC Contract /item.
As per your reply, do you mean to say that Source List is not a valid
Source of Supply for Direct Material in Classic Scenario (i.e. Ext
Classic scenario)? If not, then why the backend ECC Contract displays
as a Source of Supply, when we check the u201COrder as direct Materialu201D?
Kindly suggest"
Lets see.what SAP now replies.
Simultaniously I'm looking some enhancment
If you have nay update/soultion then please share with me.

Why in the SAP SRM books inforecord is not a source of supply in classic

Hi All
i have read many SAP Press books and materials but no where officially mentioned INFORECORD as source of supply but we could use INFORECORD as source of supply in the classic. Why SAP did not agree inforecord is a valid source of supply in any of the officical books.What could have stopped to write this point.Dfinetly some good meaning is there. Why SAP SRM definitions are missing.
for eg.by martin murray and srm materials.etc..
appreciate your thoughts..

muthu

Hi Muthu,
It's a good question. Indeed, I also couldn't find any documentation in the SAPhelp about the inforecord.
We call the backend system in the plugin function B46B_SOURCEDETER_GETSOS_MULTI at the line:
* Get sources of supply from backend system for all items
CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_SOURCEDETER_GETSOS_MULTI'

Backend system used to fetch sources of supply in classic scenario?

Dear Experts,
In sourcing for shopping cart in classic scenaro, the proposing sources of supply fetches possibles sources like contract, info record from local system as well as backend systems. If there are number of backend systems, which system is used to fetch the probable contracts and info-record as source of supply?
Is it the source system for the product category used in the shopping cart? or is there any settings defined in the org structres of the user attributes?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

You could try to set a Breakpoint at FM BBP_PDC_SRC_DETERMINE or inside META_sOS_determine.
as KGP said you will get inforecord and contract are valid source of supply
We call the backend system in the plugin function B46B_SOURCEDETER_GETSOS_MULTI at the line:

GOA not picked up as source of supply in R/3 when converting PR to PO

Hi
We are currently using SRM 5.0 extended classic scenario. Here we are using Global outline agreements which will get replicated to backend R/3 system and can be used as source of supply while converting a Purchase requisition to Purchase order. The aim is to use Global outline agreements instead of Info records which will be more flexible.
Once MRP run is done, based on requirement Purchase requisitions are created. Using ME57 we convert the PRs to Purchase orders by assigning source of supply. At this point I would expect the GOA to be picked up,whcih is created against this product. But this is not happening as of now.
Please let me know if there is configuration or prerequisites that need to be done for this.
Also when I am trying to assign the GOA manually in PR, it is throwing the error as 'Item category of contract does not match with Item category in PR', even though both has Item category as 'Standard'.
<< Moderator message - Everyone's problem is important >>
Regards
Edited by: Rob Burbank on Nov 15, 2010 3:15 PM

Hi
GOA is not source of supply Indeed.
whatever you have distributed the GOA as a Purchasing contract is a real source of supply.
if the contract is available in ECC , then it is a valid source of supply for your purchase request.
Can you use the same contract for any other manual / PM /PS purchase request?
Are you assigning same material contract to your purchase request ?
the problem is for only MRP PRs or all PRs.
