Hi
Please find the anwers
1.is it possible to define one root node or organizational unit which have multiple company code from one backend system? if the answer is yes, how?
For this you can create one org. node say with name "root node co.code" and create Org. units underneath of "root node co.code" with assgining different co.codes from the backend(one org unit mapped to one co.code). It is not possible to assign one org unit with different co.codes.
2.the system allow me to assign one employee to more than one division. what staffing percentage function? and is it better if we define the staffing percentage function? is there any issue if i do this?
I have not encountered this scenario, may be someone else will anwswer this.
3. what the different between company code, purchasing organization, and purchasing group in function tab and in attribute?
Co.Code, Pur org and Pur grp under function tab help to map the SRM org units created to ECC backend system, where as the one one the attribute will help to adopt these attributes during creation of SC in SRM.

We work with SRM 5 Ext' Classic & report based on organization plan

Hello expert,
We work with SRM 5 Extended Classic scenario and BW for reports.
We have a lot of purchasing types and we need a good report that can give as a clear picture of the purchasing process according to the organization units (departments). We have one purchase organization and a lot of purchase groups, and the way that the system is built doesnu2019t support this requirement. We need a report that is based on the organization plan.
For example:
We need the option to extract all HR unit purchase documents or all direct supply goods that are purchased by the supply chain department. The report also needs to give a clear picture of the purchase operations and costs of every unit.
Thanks,

Error while adding user in organization plan

Dear all,
When I try to add user in organization plan through users_gen, it raises an error 'Action cancelled'. Currently this user has only 1 node in the plan whereas it should have 4.
What can be the problem?

Dear Anita/Muthu
Thanks for your replies. Note 1055921 is not relevant for my process. Email Id etc is maintained for the user.
I have made one single user through SU01. Then I am using USERS_GEN, I am giving country code, org ID. Then system asks " area of user", I enter the userid. After that, this error comes.
Default country is US and no tax system is there in SPRO. I am using SRM component version 5.0.
I am lost!

Purchase Requisition Workflow - Organizational Plan required?

Hi,
We are implementing purchase requisition workflow.
Based on what I have read, it says that the workflow table (table V_T16FW) and SAP HR-PA-OM (organizational plan) must be set up to support the solution.
Question: If we are routing the workflow to a UserID, i.e. Object Type = US (and not an HR data object like Position or Job), do we require an Organizational Plan to be also set up?
Cheers,

Thanks so much for your response.
What about assigning tasks to users, etc. that is usually done in org plan, correct? If object type US is only used, I assume this is not required either?
Also, what is the benefit of using Object type = 'S', i.e. position? At my company, most of the time, when people leave, the position is deleted and a new one is created (there are a couple reasons for this), which means, even if we did use positions, the workflow table would still need to be maintained everytime a person leaves/joins the company (I understand if only the user to position mapping changes, then it makes sense to use positions, and therefore the workflow table stays constant, and only the user to position mapping changes). Are there any other benefits of using S instead of US?
Also, is it possible to NOT use a workflow table, and ONLY define an organizational plan? I was thinking to activate user exit M06B0001, and perhaps ONLY maintain an org plan, and use this to determine approver, rather than maintaining both MM workflow table and SAP Organizational Plan (HR-PA-OM). Bottom line, we want to maintain as little data as possible.
Your thoughts?
Cheers

Doubts in Organizational Plan in SUS

Hello everyone,
I need your help. I am working in a SUS implementation (for SRM 5.0). I have been checking about the definition of the organizational plan in SUS and I have doubts.
I checked that is essential the vendor organization in transaction PPOCV_BBP, could you tell me if I have to define the same in SRM an SUS??
Also, I checked and It is necessary define purchasing organization (PPOMA_BBP) and I want to know if I need to define all the purchasing organization from SRM
Thanks,
Ivan

If you look at the names of the components of SRM , you can realise what khan says easily.
SRM is a broad term and comprises further components
EBP Enterprise Buyer Professional
SUS Supplier self services &
ROS Registration of suppliers
All these functionalities or software components are bundled in SRM server
so technically can be bundled on client
but not advised by SAP for security reasons
Now the purchasing client (or server ) is EBP
responcible for purchasing
so should have the purchasing organisation and depts
and internal users with necessary attributes.
SUS client (or server) is for vendor data
so should have vendor root node with necessary attributes.
Hope it helps

SAP Business Workflow / Organizational Plan

Hi,
This is not specific to SRM, but is specific to SAP Business Workflow within ECC, relating to Organizational Management:
We have more than one instance of SAP, where one instance is used to run all of our business, except SAP HR (let's call this SAP Instance 1), and another instance that is only used for SAP HR (let's call this SAP Instance 2);
We want to implement SAP business workflow (e.g. approving requisitions through workflow in ECC);
Is it possible to use our SAP organizational plan that is already defined in our SAP HR instance of SAP (SAP Instance 2), instead of defining an SAP Organizational plan in SAP Instance 1 only to support SAP business workflow.
Is it possible to define an interface from SAP Instance 1 to 2, to look up the requisition approver, pass it back to instance 2, and then send the workflow to the appropriate person. Or is there another better approach? e.g. Replicate organizational plan that exists in instance 2 in instance 1?
From what I have briefly read online thus far, I understand that "The organizational plan is part of the PD component "Organization and Planning. The organizational plan is maintained on a client-dependent basis. An organizational plan which was created for personnel management purposes (or is to be created) can be used in SAP Business Workflow without any changes, provided the workflow functionality and the personnel management application run in the same client." To me, this sounds like that the workflow functionality and organizational plan must exist in the same system and client.
Any thoughts, suggestions, or any advice to share?
Cheers,

Hi,
It depends on how you will get approver from system.
If it is not from organization plan, organization plan is not required.
You can also call remote FM to get approver from other systems.

Hi AD1981,
Standard solution would be using distributed Organisational Management. There is custom ALE for this (check tcode SALE: Application Link Enabling (ALE) -> Modelling and Implementing Business Processes -> Predefined ALE Business Processes -> Human Resources -> Master Data Distribution -> Set Up Distributed Organizational Management). Basically you would maintain organsation in HR system and distribute changes to other instance using ALE. Workflow would rely on the distributed org. structure.

Creating a "person" under organization plan

Hi!
Do we have to activate the HR functionality in ECC in order to insert records in the personnel table? As part of the organization plan we are interested in loading the basic employee profile in the person record and then assign the person to a position in the organization plan. So far we do not have any plans to activate the HR module.
Thanks in advance.
Pramod

Hi!
I have to load around 10,000+ employees in ECC 6.0 and then assign each of them to the corresponsing position in the organization plan. We are planning to build an automated interface to enable this. But looks like we will have to implement some of the functionality from HR in order to load our 10,000+ employees as personnel in ECC.
Thank You
Pramod

Activate Block Organization Plan in Infotype 0001 when it copied

Hi All,
I want to activate block organization plan in infotype 0001 when I copy or create that infotype.
I have tried to search any available resources in sap notes but couldn't find it.
How to activate this?
Thank you in advance,
MAL

Dear semvladigo ,
it's not about integration between PA and OM.
What I want to do is I want to copy infotype 0001 directly from PA30, and then change the percentage of the position directly without using Action (PA40).
I tried to copy it using PA30 but I cannot change the percentage because it is in grey out. How to make it possible to change the percentage directly.
Thank You,
MAL.

Change organizational plan - workflow

Hi experts,
the client asks me to develop a routine in order to update, automatically, the agents of workitem when organizational plan changes. Is this possible in SAP ECC 6.0 ? Are there tables which track changes to organizational plan? Are there any exit on organizational plan save?
Thanks and regards
Antonella

You can make use of the following business Object
ORGUNITEXT Enhanced Organizational Unit
PDOTYPE_SH HR Position
PD_1001 PD Infotype Relationship (1001)
Check whether any event is getting triggered for this BO when you are changing Organization Plan and use accordingly.
Thanks

Because when I try to associated the purchase group for other companies, it show up the error message
Purchasing group XXX in system SXRXXXXXX already assigned to XXXXXXX
Is there a form/way to divide the time for many purchase groups, because in our scenarrio of bussines one purchase group can buy for all companies.
thanks..
Kristin

Hi, Imthiaz Ahmed..Thanks for our help..But I still have a doubt..Could you help me again?
In my Organization Plan the scenario was defined with 3 company codes and for each company code one purchase organization (under). I create one purchase group only and i associated in one purchase organization.
I found that field in responsability tab and I associated in organization responsability the ID reference for 2 companys codes. This procedure is right? Now Can I make the pruchase procedure using this purchase group for others companys codes?
Thanks again...
