Preferred Vendor Lists maintained in EBP

Hi All,
I would like to know where exactly Preferred Vendor Lists maintained in EBP.
I had checked BBP_PDVIEW_LIST table, which displays Vendor List number against Prod Category GUI Id. But we also need to find out the link between Vendor List Number and Vendor Numbers.
If some one helps me in this then that will be great.
Thanks
Talchuru

Hi
Setting for Preferred Vendor is done at Vendor Lists.
This thing is only done by purchaser role.
You give user with role as : SAP_EC_BBP_ST_PURCHASER
Then you can see Business Partner link - here you can check out "BBPAVLMAINT - Process Vendor List" - by using this transaction you can change/delete the linkage of Product Category with Vendor.
Please see the related pointers ->
Re: Preffered Vendor
See the SRM web transaction - BBPAVLMAINT
To create Vendor Lists (progammatically / configuration )
Re: Vendor List Mass Creation
Hope this will help.

Vendor list and preferred vendor

Hi,
We are using classic scenario and currently, all carts are intercepted by the purchasing department so purchase requisitions are manually converted into POs.
We want to implement vendor lists but SRM assigns any vendor chosen from a vendor list as fixed, which means it will convert to a PO once the shopping cart is fully approved.
Is there a BADI I can use to change the vendor from 'Fixed' to 'preferred'. Can BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI be used to do so or does it only works when changing a 'preferred' vendor into a 'fixed' vendor?
Thanks

Hi
Yes... we have done this long back successfully..
The BADI - BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI can be easily used...
Also, you can look for BBP_SOS_BADI...
Do let me know, incase you face any problems.

Preferred vendor not being copied from the selection list of F4 --- Shop

Hi SRM Gurus,
When we are creating a shopping cart with the sources of supply, preferred list of vendors is displayed when we click the icon next to the preferred vendor in the browser. Source of supply, F4 in GUI also gives a list of vendors but if we select the vendor name, it is not being copied.
Else, if we type the business partner number in the tab, it gets selected.
Can anyone faced the similar type of problem?
Kindly suggest.
Earliest reply will be highly appreciated with points.
Sincerely,
Sridhar.

Hi Yann,
Thanks for your reply.
I checked though. My problem is little different as I can see the list of vendors and also if I type the BP id of the particular vendor in the preferred vendor tab it works. Only I cannot doubleclick the vendors name and select it to the preferredvendor tab.
Also once selected I dont have any issues in creating the PO and the complete cycle.
Any other suggestions.
Sincerely,
Sridhar.

Query on Grouping Tax Base Balances for Italian Report Customer/Vendor List

Hello Experts,
We are implementing the new italian report for customer/vendor List as per Note : 1090857 - Customer/Vendor List for Italy:New Legal Requirement (2007)
This requires a customizing in Table/View V_T007K(Group Tax Base Balances) where we need to group the tax codes.
Based on what logic is this table required to be maintained and what considerations need to be taken care of when mainting the tax codes for each column.
Anyone who has maintained this table or who is ware of the procedure and logic of maintainance , could kindly advise on the same.
Points would be awarded for any helpful answer.
Thanks & Regards,
Rajeshwari

Hello,
Thanks for your answer,
On what basis should the grouping be done.
Is it only based on the tax codes types?
or is there any specific rule.
has anyone maintained this grouping for a Italian company code before?
Points would be awarded immediately for any help in this.
Thanks & Warm Regards,
Rajeshwari

Changing preferred vendor to fixed vendor in SRM PO- no currency conversion

Hi All,
We are on SRM_SERVER 550, SP11, ECS scenario.
Users create carts where they enter preferred vendor.
After approval we found that the PO's were created only in "Held" Status.
So we did a conversion of the preferred vendor (PF 39) to Fixed vendor (PF 19) during PO creation using BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI- BBP_PO_CHANGE.
We also implemented BBP_GROUP_LOC_PO,GROUP_PO so that all items with same preferred vendor are grouped into a single PO.
We observed that PO is now getting created in ordered status, where the preferred vendor is getting converted to fixed vendor as per our code change. But we also found a problem- that the line item price doesnt get converted to Vendor order currency after the Po is created. For ex: If line item price is 10 GBP and Vendor order currency is EUR, the line item price in the PO shows 10 EUR. The currency conversion fro GBP to EUR does not happen.
This does not happen for catalog items/PO's where the cart comes with a fixed vendor (PF 19).
So there surely seems to be something missing in our code for converting Preferred vendor to fixed vendor which is preventing/not converting the currency as well.
Please find below the code we are using in DOC_CHANGE_BADI for PO, is there any step in this which is causing the currency conversion to be skipped?
CONSTANTS:C_FIXED_VENDOR   TYPE BBP_PDS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT
                       VALUE '00000019',
           C_PREFERRED_VEND TYPE BBP_PDS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT
                       VALUE '00000039'.
   READ TABLE ET_PARTNER INTO LS_PARTNER WITH KEY
                         P_GUID      = IS_HEADER-GUID
                         PARTNER_FCT = C_FIXED_VENDOR.
   IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
   READ TABLE ET_PARTNER INTO LS_PARTNER WITH KEY
                         P_GUID      = IS_HEADER-GUID
                         PARTNER_FCT = C_PREFERRED_VEND.
    IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
      CLEAR IDX.
      IDX = SY-TABIX.
      MOVE C_FIXED_VENDOR TO LS_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT.
   MODIFY ET_PARTNER INDEX IDX FROM LS_PARTNER TRANSPORTING PARTNER_FCT.
   ENDIF.
   ENDIF.
Regardas,
Srivatsan

there is nothing in your code which prevents the conversion between the two currencies,
it can be the following reason
1) system as standard is not performing the conversion.
2) conversion factors are not maintained (or) conversion factors are maintained and the expiry date for the conversion factors has passed.

Vendor changes tracking, Payment term filtering, Vendor listing

Hi All,
Need somebody help on the following points,
1- While changing the vendor via "process vendor and Bidder" (Business partner maintenance) transaction in EBP, the selection of payment term is restricted. That is in SPRO I can see lot of payment terms, but while changing the vendor some few payment terms are coming. Where is the filter? Can anybody guide me.
2- Vendor changes Tracking. In our project somebody has changed frequently the vendor indicators and details in EBP via process Vendor and Bidder(BP maintenance) transaction. But I couldnt able to track which fields are changed and by whom like in R/3. I tried in BP also, but only the address changed details are coming there. Can anybody guide me how to track the changes, if somebody changed somefield in EBP directly?
3- Vendor list - I want list ERS activated vendor in EBP. How to get the list of vendor for which ERS indicator is active? Please guide me.
Many thanks in Advance.

Shunmugaraj. T

Hi
Please refer to standard transaction - BBP_PD.. give any Shopping cart number, which is approved by a list of buyers, managers, etc..
Incase the changes are made, it will display all the details related to them in that case.
Understand its logic by putting break-point inside.
Incase you are using SRM 5.5 version, there is a report, which displays the changes made to the Purchase orders with old and new values.
Report name -> TERM_DISPLAY_CHANGE_HISTORY
Also please refer this as well.
Say you use this Function module for the change object - BUPA_BBP0060
This sample code will all the changes, if any, made to the object, with the old value and new values.
Here is the sample code for the FM ->
CHANGEDOCUMENTS_TO_OBJECT 
data: listtitle(80) type c.
data: objectclass like cdhdr-objectclas.
data: objecttitle(20) type c.
data: con_keylength(2) type n value 10.
data: cursor_field(20) type c.
listtitle = 'Changes made'.
listtitle+22 = vibebe-sberi.
listtitle+34 = vibebe-xberibz.
condense listtitle.
objectclass = 'BUPA_BBP0060'.
call function 'CHANGEDOCUMENTS_TO_OBJECT'
 exporting
 callmodus = callmodus
 cursor_field = cursor_field
 keylength = con_keylength
 listtitle = listtitle
 objectclass = objectclass
 objectid = objectid
 objecttitle = objecttitle
 exceptions
 error_in_function = 01
 invalid_field = 02
 others = 03.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
 message id sy-msgid type 'S' number sy-msgno
 with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
endif.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

Projectwise Vendor List

Dear Experts,
My client wants to track the vendor list project wise.Is there any standard report in SAP..?If not,suggest me some solution.
Many thanks in advance.....
By
Suma

Hi
Vendors are Business Partners like Customers and maintained under Master record at Purchasing Org level only. Vendors not maintained to Project or Sales Order speicific.
You can develop a custom report to extract the data who are all the vendors involved in project specific and their payment status.
Hope this will answer your requirement.

Why PR department can see invited vendor list for RFQ

I found that PR department can see invited vendor list for RFQ in PR Document Status tab. In my company, invited vendor list should be kept confidential and only authorized persons can access. As PR authorizatin control is not down to PR creator, this information may be disclosed to other non-related persons wihtin same purhasing group. In SAP, I would like to know the rationale to let the PR department know the RFQ vendors. Moerover, I want to understand the current industrial practice on treating RFQ vendor list information so that I can make recommendation for senior review. Thanks in advance

Hi,
You issue well explained the 50% of solution. As you said importance for all organization to have secured and efficient authorization concept. Based on organizational structures and business processes an authorization matrix( is just working sheet) is very useful for to control all t.codes under Module / Business role specific.
For example:
Purchase Requisition (internal purchasing document) is a request by any department to purchasing department to supply material or provides service. Only here user(Mr.X) in department create PR(ME51N) and Department head (Mr.Y) release (ME54N)the Purchase Requisition(PR). For change PR , you can use Mr.X and you can have another User ID Mr.Z { Mr.X, Mr.Y & Mr.Z should not have access for RFQ or PO details}
Once Purchase Requisition released, then its responsibility purchasing organisation or respective purchasing group (buyer) , start work on determining source by sending Request for quotation(RFQ,ME41) to different vendors by Mr.A. Once all quotation received, you can maintain quotation in ME47 by user Mr.B. In vendor selection process, you can compare quotation in ME49 by user Mr.C.( also you can set approval process for Request for quotation ME45 by Mr.D) {Mr.A, Mr.B,Mr.C,Mr.D may have access on PR but no access on PO)
Once Vendor decided, user (Mr.E) can create Purchase Order (PO )and then it will be released by Mr.F, so then only PO print send to vendor. {Mr.E & Mr.F have access on PR & PO}
Likewise you should have different users for authorisation based on role in inventory management ( Mr. G can receive goods, Mr.H can have authorisation for Excises, Mr.J can have issuing goods)

Hi friends,
While trying to call questionnaire in vendor list, I find "evaluate vendor" icon inactive. Following two settings are done:

Vendor list sort by name

dear experts,
do you know how to make a list of vendor (active and non active) sorted by name?
moreover, do you know the differences of blocking vendor and flag the vendor for deletation,
and the how to delete vendor master data?
regards,
Lily

hi,
thanks for your reply. I tried LFA1 (V_LFA1_CORE) to maintain the vendor table,
but it can't be sort by name since there is not sorting button/selection.
I tried the old fashion by going to vendor list in FB60, sort it by name and print it.
at least i can know the active vendors account sorted by name.
Moreover, in the maintaining field there is a delete button,
I tried to delete 1 vendor account that I had put flag for deletation and now after I check
in the vendor master data list, it is not appearing anymore. I guess the vendor master had been deleted.
