Plan Driven Procurement in Classic scenario

Dear SAP gurus,
We are in SRM 7 EHP 1 with backend ECC 6 EHP 5. We are considering to use classic scenario, but we want to make sure that all the components are working fine. We have a scenario where MRP will be used in backend thus crearting a PR. We know that we can then push the PR to become SC in SRM then it can be processed there.
However seein note 505030 point 15, it seems that you cannot procure direct material using classic scenario. I assume that if using classic scenario, the PR of stock materials just wont go to SRM. However in other places I read that actually stock material works for classic scenario, but the PO will automatically switch to extended classic.
So which one is correct? Is:
1. For PDP and in classic environment, PR stock material NOT able to go to SRM, OR
2. For PDP and in classic environment, PR stock material can go to SRM, but when it is converted to PO it switch to extended classic.
Best regards,
John

Hi John,
The second option works in SRM.
Direct procurement in classic scenario works as if the system were extended classic. Thus your PO will be created in SRM and a copy of it will be replicated to ECC.

  • Self service procurement and plan driven procurement in classic scenario

    hai friends,
    i have configured self service procurement and now i am configuring plan driven procurement in classic scenario.my doubt is suppose  a shopping cart is created and placed in a sourcing application of the professional buyer.And assume he accomplished sourcing activity and created purchase order .Now purchase order is created locally or in the backed.i am using classic scenario ,now can u tell where the purchase order is located? if i want to place that particular purchase order in SRM  it self what will i do? thanks in advance.

    Hi Chandra
    before going to select Business scenario (self service, plan driven..etc), you must freeze the technical scenario. Depends upon your technical scenario, your PO will be created .
    Where PO is created it is called leading system. It is SAP standard.
    If you were selected  Classic- Po created in R/3.- R/3 is a leading system .
    if you were select ECS- > PO will created in SRM and Copy also will be created in R/3 system. In EBP only you can edit the PO not in r/3. here SRM is a Leading system.

  • SRM 7 PPS Classic Scenario with Plan Driven Procurement?

    Hello experts,  I want to know if the combination of  SRM 7 PPS Classic Scenario with Plan Driven Procurement is possible? or if there any limitation to consider? Our client needs to create purchase requisition in ERP -> send this purchase requisitions to SRM (as shopping carts) create bids - > quotations  - > create contract from accepted quotations and then from the contract we need to create purchase order but this one must be created in ERP (classic scenario) Someone has experimented the same situation? Best regards and thanks for your Help.
    Liam

    Hi Lima ,
    Classic scenario wont support PPS .
            - Stand alone and classic scenario not supported
            - Shopping cart renamed to Purchase Requisition
            - Shopping cart generate (pre)commitment in funds management
            - Contract can create Funds Reservation (Earmarked Funds) in Funds Management as a Guarantee
            - Goods Receipt and Invoice created in ERP
            - Mixed PO: PO with lines that works like contract lines, a PO can be created from these lines
            - PO created from contracts or mixed-PO is named call-off PO. Only is a new name, is a "normal" SRM      PO
            - Goods receipt possible in SRM only in "easy" cases
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    for 2) direct material works like an ext. classic scenario. However it is not exactly the same since ECS could have accounting assignment where direct material excluded that.
    for 3) Local purchasing grp is mandatory for direct material and ECS scenario. Other than that, it is not required. The user can exists anywhere in the org structure as long as a responsible P.Org and Grp have been assigned for that user.

  • Stock Procurement by Classic Scenario

    Hi,
    We are using SRM Server 5.5 as an add-on component to ECC 6.0. Only Classic deployment is in our scope.
    Can anybody clarify me if we can procure Stock Material by Classic deployment of SRM?
    While creating SC, when I click on 'Order as Direct Material' system is unable to determine the Purchasing Group and Org. So its unable to get replicated into R/3.
    Thanks
    Debashish

    Hi Jagdish,
    SAP told us that standard Classic scenario can't handle Stock procurement. For stock proc we need to have the extended classic scenario. In Extended classic we have Plan-driven procurement and we can do it there. Once again for stock procurement we need to define Local Purch grp and purch org and we need to have POs in SRM. POs in SRM is possible for Extended Classic scenario and this is not a part of Classic scenario.
    SAP said that if we want to create Stock SC in SRM then we have to go for development.
    Can anybody in this forum please confirm that in Classic Scenario we can't create a Stock SC (Without development)?
    If you refer to OSS note 963000, it says that in ADD-ON SRM , only classic scenario is supported. If this is the case why I can see the 'Order as Direct Material' button.
    Can anybody help me here??
    Thanks

  • Plan Driven Procurement in SRM 7.0

    Hi SRM Friends,
    I heard that in SRM 7.0 Plan Driven Procurement, leading PO is always created in Backend system.(Which means It is not supported by Extended classic). I am not sure if this is correct or not.
    Please let me know if this is true as per standard out of Box functionality.
    Thanks
    Venkat

    Hello Venkat,
    PDP is supported with both the scenarios as mentioned by Masa.
    Some key points to consider:
    1. Classic scenario: Inventory/ Account assignmnet as Blank, PR if transferred to SRM result in local PO (Direct material purchase behaviour)
    2. Extended classic scenario: PO in SRM does not support the service hierachy.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • ERROR in Invoice posting  from XI to SRM in MM-SUS plan driven procurement

    Hi
          We are implementing MM-SUS plan driven procurement scenario. MM version is 4.7. we are using Z-Program to trigger Invoice i-doc from MM to XI. its reaching XI but from XI to SRM there is some error.
    the error is DYNAMIC_CALL_FAILURE

    any help is appericiated.
    Thanks,
    Arvind

    Hi Arvind,
    From Xi to SRM, by the looks of it, you are calling a BAPI. Can you specify how is your scenario configured ?
    If it is a BAPI, can you also try to test it(on the SRM box itself) from the Function Module test tool?
    Pls let us know the results/details.
    cheers

    Hi Nagi,
    This is related to Parner determination process with both systems in CRM & ECC.
    Error Details:  "Partner Function" in CRM is not there in ECC.
    We mapped in ECC by creating a ZB copied from "SB" Partner function in ECC & reprocessed the order in CRM, Henceforth rectififed the error.
    Many Thanks !!!

  • How to use the direct material indicator in Plan Driven Procurement?

    Dear Experts,
    How the system determine the procurement as direct material procurement in Plan driven scenario? In case of manual shopping cart, the system determines the direct material /indirect material procurement based on the check box 'Order as direct material'
    indicator.
    Now in case of plan driven procurement, where the requisition comes from ECC system, there is no way to indicate in the MM system for direct material?
    Could you please enlighten me here?
    Thanks and regards,
    Ranjan

    Hi Ranjan,
    In case of manual shopping cart, system at that point does not know whether the material procured has inventory management maintained or material valuation. Hence we need to specify option of 'Order as direct material'.
    But when requisition is created in ECC system, SAP system already is aware of direct procurement since material used will have material master / Inventory management / Material valuation / Storage location etc maintained. And the info or some indicator will be sent to front end SRM system accordingly. 
    Moreover it does not really matter for front-end SRM system to check whether it's a direct or indirect procurement since all procurement processes followed in SRM will be exactly same.
    Hope this provides some kind of understanding for your questions.

  • Manage direct procurement in classic scenario

    Hi Experts,
    We are on SRM 701
    Classic Scenario
    can anyone let me know how we can manage direct procurement in classic scenario?
    i want to kept goods in storage location and i cant do that because of account assignment tap in SC and as i know account assignment is mandatory to create a Sc
    Regards
    Elham

    Hello Elham,
          As suggested Account Assignment should always be used and one cannot skip it for creating the Shopping Cart. If you are having Classic Scenario then your PO would be in backend system directly which you can manage through dummy account assignment as guided you in your previous post. Just get in touch with your Finance Team and ask them to make a Dummy Profit Center/Cost Center which you can use while creating SC for your local Storage
    Thanks

  • Plan driven procurement issue in classic scenario

    hi friends,
    is it possible to replicate the external requirements from R3 to SRM in classic scenario .I tried to replicate the pr's from R3 to SRM.But i was unable to do it.kindly let me know the config steps required to replicate the PR from R3 to SRM sourcing cockpit.Thanks in advance
    Thanks,
    chakradhar

    Hi,
       Its certainly possible to replicate/transfer requisitions from ECC to SRM in classic scenario as mentioned by Dinesh.
    Make sure the following entries and steps are implemented.
    1. Entries in tables are necessary - V_T160PR and V_T160EX
    2. Create SRM channel entry node in SRM organization structure and assign communication user (eg; RFC_USER) to the node. Node could be either a POrg or PGrp in the SRM root Organization.
    3. Make sure the PRs from ECC are picked up by BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER BADI after approval or been released.
    4. Make sure the PR requirement date and transfer date in BADI matches or use a variant for the BADI.
    5. Check SMQ1 in ECC to see if the theres any Entry exists. Also check the EPRTRANS table to see if the PR still exists in table.
    6. Check SLG1 in SRM to see if there are any issues in the transfer.
    Once the its successfully tranfered, it will appear in Sourcing cockpit in SRM.
    Let me know if you have questions.

  • Direct Procurement in Classic Scenario

    Hi Experts,
    We are on SRM 7 Ehp1, ECC 6 Ehp4.
    Classic Scenario.
    1. I have read in the forums , that in Classic Scenario, direct procurement is possible but the system behaves like Extended Classic and creates a Local PO. Just want to confirm this and if yes , does this happen as a standard or do we need to implement any BADI or anything to achieve this.
    2. Also , in Classic Scenario, PDP scenario , can we transfer stock items(Direct Materials) PR's into SRM system or are there any limitations.
    Thanks
    Aditya

    Hi Aditya,
    You are right. Classic system behaves as extended classic for Direct procurement scenario. Your PO will be created in SRM itself and a copy of this will be sent to ECC. This happens as a standard and no BADIs need to be implemented for this.
    Also in your classic system, you can transfer stock PRs into SRM. These will be available as shopping carts in the sourcing cockpit.
