PDP - no entry in eprtrans

SRM SERVER 550 SP13
R3 4.7
Classic
Reorder point planning. When MRP runs and generates requistions the eprtrans table is not updated with the req. The req does have a procurement profile assigned in the eban table. The req is not subject to release and has a status of active.
I can manually create a req with the exact same data and eprtrans is populated. I can also make a manual change to the MRP generated reqs and it shows up in eprtrans.
This seems to be specific to MRP generated reqs. Dont need help on how to configure ext reqs transfer to SRM. that is working. need to understand why these MRP generated reqs are not populating the erptrans table despite having a valid procurement profile assigned. The manual reqs compared to the mrp reqs in the eban table. only field that has a difference in the eban table is creation indicator. for manual req that works creation indicator = R (realtime manual) and for the MRP req the creation indicator = B (material requirements planning). Every other field in eban is indentical.
I'm at a total loss, seems to be some MRP setting or maybe bug. Any insight is appreciated.
thanks in advance.

I think the official SAP response is direct procurement is not supported in classic for any business scneario.
We give SRM what it wants:
Create Dummy account assignment
Create dummy cost center
You could actually use any cost object, but we made a copy of K as it best fit our needs.
Basically during transfer we insert cost object, then when creating the PO from SRM we strip the cost object back out. I'm sure this can be done without creating dummy account assignments, as you know fico will push back on this request, but the dummy account assignment is useful as its unique to this process and can be used as a trigger.
You need 3 badis to accomplish this.
BBP_BADI_EXTREQ_OUT
BBP_ACCCAT_MAP_IMP
BBP_CREATE_BE_PO_NEW
Its a little more tricky than appears on the surface, but I have done this exact development at 2 different customers and has been running at one customer for 2 years with no issues, and the other just a few months with no issues.

Without delete PDP table entry, I want to Order PO in R/3. How can I do it?

Hi SRM Gurus,
I am using SRM 5.5 with Extended Classic Scenario and Plan Driven Procurement(PDP).
My question is: I was unable to create PO with reference PR/RFQ/Manually in R/3.System is giving an error message 'you can order locally(SRM)'. Which material group and Purchasing groups are maintained in PDP table. If I delete this entry I can Order PO in R/3.
Now I don't want to delete PDP table entry and I want to Order PO in R/3. How can I do it?.
Please focuses light on this issue. Highly appreciate.
Regards,
John.

Hi
I think you can do in both sides
let me know your scenario too well.
I am in classic scenario
i can create a PR - if i have valid unique source of supply , PO will be created in ECC
If i have more than one source of supply , my PR will get EPRTRANS TABLE ENTRY with EPROFILE updated in EBAN table and my ECC pr wil be transfered to SRM and create a sc and this cart will be in cockpit.
I believe your PR has EPROFILE , thats why you could not create a PO in ECC side.
confirm me.
How to you assign a source of supply for PRs ? I wanted to know. so i can expalin easilyand any jobs you create to create a Auto POS in ECC after assign a source of supplt to your Purchase request.

PDP: How to transfer PR manually?

Dear expert,
I met an issue that , in PDP, if the PR transfer failed, I need to transfer the PR again.
Until now, I have only the resolution that enter an PR manually into table EPRTRANS and run report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER manually.
The reason why I do this is because the PR was approved and custom doesnot want to change the PR any more.
But I have to make effort to enter an PR manually into table EPRTRANS.
Is there any better way to do this?
Regards,
Hayashi.

Hi Hayashi,
I am afraid that when PR transfer failed, the entry in table EPRTRANS will be removed. And you have to fix the exact error and then delete the stuck queue in trx smq1, and make some changes to this PR in order to generate one entry in EPRTRANS. Then transfer is possible again.
This is standard system design which is hard-coded, so you can only change this logic by modifying standard coding.
Maybe you can consider using SOA to transfer PR instead of using report.

Ivy

PR to Shopping Cart

Hi,
I have created one PR(Purchase Requisition) in backendSAP . But the entry is not passing to the table EPRTRANS, which is responsible for transferring PR to Shopping Cart(SC) in EBP .If I created entry manually in EPRTRANS and than execute the prog. BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER it will transfer the entries from EPRTRANS to EBP as SC & than delete entry from EPRTRANS table which is OK .
Where is the setting required by which once I create PR in SAP
it will automatically inserted into table EPRTRANS .
Looking forward your responses.

Hi Everyone,
I did mention on other thread inside Subject "Creation of Purchase order and workflow" about the similer issue, shared my experience. Hope that help.
Copy of that.
Hi Sunny/Manoj,
I missed Sunny last questions on this thread. I hope i can clarify now for both of you.
Yes, As Standard, you can push R/3 PR to Sourcing from MRP, PM or APO.
If you have to push simply from R/3 PR directly, what i meant in the earlier message that you simply update EPRTRAN thru custom program or thru Workflow once PR is saved.
Basically, the BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER looks for entries in EPRTRAN table and push those PRs into SRM sourcing.
I have done this during my development stage in one of project that i do not wait MRP to create R/3 PR though that was actual requirments.
I just put entry into EPRTRANs table in SE16 for R/3 PR to be transferred to SRM, then run BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER. It worked fine.
Per my understanding that it does not check whether the entries in EPRTRANs table, has come from R/3 PR which driven from MRP, PM, else.

Jay

How to send PR from backend to SRM ?

In the backend I have customized that I want to transfer certain purchase requisitons to the srm system for the approval process. so I set up the t160ex table and t160PR table with the relevant data.
I have checked the used rfc connections but no shoppincarts appear in the srm system when saving a PR in the backend.
do I miss certain steps in this scenario ?
I have found this thread and on the srm side also implemented the badi BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI
and had set the filter to BUS2121
Re: Transfer SC to SRM trigger Workflow
kind regards

yep first aim is to find out why the eprtrans table was not updated. I found that out now thanks to note 428116
7. In order to be able to enter the external purchase requisitions into the transfer table, a BTE (Business Transaction Event) is to be introduced to function module BBP_EPRTRANS_MAINTAIN. For this, you have to include or change an entry in table TBE11.
      Note: You have to make the entries manually even if the note has already been implemented with a Support Package.
           Application indicator Active   Text
           PM                    X        Maintenance
    * Afterwards, you have to add an entry with the following fields in table TBE31 for event 01000710:
           Business trans. Event Ctr Appl.ind. Function module
           01000710        PM                    BBP_EPRTRANS_MAINTAIN
      8. In order to set the purchasing profile determination, you have to maintain both view V_T160PR and view V_T160EX according to your requirements using Transaction SM30.
In addition, the mechanism of the 'Business Transaction Events' must be activated for the 'New Dimension Integration' (NDI). To do this, carry out Transaction BF11. Then activate entry 'NDI' by selecting the checkbox. Save the change.
so now I can continue with the srm side
thanks for all the valuable input so far

Entry Channel for PDP

Hi,
As we know, "entry channel" must be created under one company code, then integrate the RFC user to the entry channel, my question is, I have 3 company codes, how to create the entry channel?
Please advise.
Thanks a lot!
Jack

Hi,
Thanks a lot.
But what does this mean? --> "In Function tab you can add the three company code in stretch", actually in Function Tab I can only add one Company code.
Kindly please advise.

Hi,
Table EPRTRANS in R/3 stores the PR's which needs to be transferred to external SRM system in PDP scenario based on the entries in table V_T160PR and V_T160EX and other config.See the foll thread for more details:

How to decide the Purchasing ORG in SC in the standard SRM PDP scenairo

Dear ,Experts :
I work in SRM 7.0 and PDP scenairo .
I create one PR in MM and run the report to send the PR to SRM system , In SRM system ,the SC will automatic generate .In the BBP_PD ,I can find the Proc_Org and Proc_Group in the Organizations. In my opinion ,when create the Sc ,the system will find the responsible purchasing group and the purchasing group .If there are many Purchasing groups found ,the system will assign it to the first purchasing group and its PORG.
on the other way ,you should maintan the CHANNEL unit in the purchasing group responsbility .
Right ?
BESTREGARDS
Alex

Hi Alex,
You are right. You need to assign the responsibility of entry channel to the local purchasing group. Also coming to your first question, usually for PDP scenario, we create one local purch org and purch grp as these local structures will be responsible for all external procurement.
PS: Make sure your RFC user is created under the entry channel. System will create SC through this RFC user.

Text Mapping during PDP

This thread is in continuation with Entry does not exist in BBPC_TEXT_EXT
We want to get additional text types from PR to SC via PDP.
So while maintaing values under IMG>SRM>SRM Server>Cross Application Basic Settings>Text Mapping>Text Mapping for Inbound and Outbound text, we got an error that "Entry does not exist in BBPC_TEXT_EXT".
After running /SAPSRM/GET_TEXT_CUST_ERP I got values in the table BBPC_TEXT_EXT (from ECC) and could complete above customization.
Now we observe that, only standard item text types are getting transfred but text maintained in additional text types do not get transferred in spite of above cutomization and applied notes 1448047.
What could be the problem?
Thanks.
GH

in SRM
inbound and outbound text
The Object type to be used to define settings for external requirement is EXTREQ
as well
In the backend system ,
Material management >purchasing>PR->texts for pRs->Define text type
SRM-cross applica->define settings for attachemtns
afte r that your PR attachment get transfer to SRM sc.

EPRTRANS - PR items release strategy

Hi gurus,
I'm working in SRM 5.0, ECS, backend ECC 6.0.
I need to set up the 'Plan Driven Procurement scenario'.
In ECC I created entries in V_T160EX and V_T160PR and I have mantained TBE11 and TBE31 accordingly to SAP note 656597.
I used ME51N to create a purchase requisition (without items release strategy) which is getting copied to EPRTRANS table.
A purchase requisitions (with items release strategy) is getting copied to EPRTRANS table when I Save the PR?
or when I release the single items?
Points will be rewarded
Thanks in advance
Gg

Hi Disha,
you said:
The table EPRTRANS will be populated only when all the items(which have a release strategy) in the PR will be released.
Do you mean that if a PR contains two items (both with release strategy) and only the first has been released, EPRTRANS will not be populated until I release the second item?
Is that correct?
Thanks in advance
Points will be rewarded

PDP scenario

Hi every one,
I have a problem, when i am trying to transfer the purchase requisition from my backend system to srm, the requisitions are not getting transfered to the SRM.
presently we have SRM 6.0 version and support pack level is 3.
when i check smq1 in backend the requirement is not moving from the que, instead i could see the status an "ANORETRY".
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.
As far as configuration is concerned every thing is configured with t160pr and ex table maintenance and creating a entry channel in organization in SRM.
your quick response is appreciated.

PDP Issue

Hi All,
I have made all the requisite settings for the PDP.
I could transfer a couple of PRs from R3 into teh SRM 5.0,
which created a Shoppping Cart.
But after a couple of days, I am unable to move the PRs into SRM.
It is getting stuck in the queue and as nad when I try to release from the Queue,
I am getting an error as under
Application aborted due to serious errors.
RFCs are OK
I s there any way to debug?
Any clues are welcome,please.

Did you miss any steps in the following
Using an entry channel, the requisitions are transferred into Enterprise Buyer.
This channel must have at least one entry user.
Corresponding to this entry user, you have to set up a RFC connection from back end to Enterprise Buyer by using this special RFC user.
To get the requisitions in the work list for purchase orders, or in sourcing, there is a local purchasing group required with the responsibility for the entry channel
and the product category of the back end requisitions.
Customizing of sourcing
ViewV_T160EX in the SAP back end determines which material groups and
purchasing groups are grouped into a profile. View V_T160PR determines
which profile targets to which RFC connection.

On Android 4.2.2 on a Nexus7 tablet - No Firefox button and most text entry fields do not work at all

I installed Firefox 19.0.2 and appears to be ok, but I don't see a Firefox button anywhere, so I cannot access any of the functions that it controls, such as bookmarks, which is why I installed it!
The ASUS Nexus 7 tablet shows up as a supported platform.
I set it as the default link browser, but quickly realized that I could not enter text into any data entry fields, so I reset the default back to Chrome, which works fine for that.
I installed Firefox because bookmarks in Chrome are very lame, but I can't use bookmarks at all in Firefox, so again Chrome wins.
Any suggestions, before I uninstall it?

I am now a Democrat supporter. dccc.org does accept text input from my mobile.
The forum problem I mentioned earlier is apparently a known issue but only affecting legacy phones.
