Purchase Order Response accept/reject

HI srm forum .
the scenario is mm/sus classic . when vendor accept the PO new and confirm qty or dates. the interface PurchaseOrderConfirmation send the confirmation to MM.
the question is How the buyer accept or reject the confirmation in MM .
thanks for the help.

Hi Oscar,
I don't think there is a workflow for this in MM-SUS scenario.
In SRM-SUS there can be a workflow configured for accept/reject the changes done from the vendor by the purchaser.

POR (Purchase Order Response): Approve/Reject buttons not functioning

Hi folks,
In SRM 5.0 extended classic scenario, a POR is sent to EBP from SUS. The POR is outside tolerances so it triggers workflow -WS14500019. When a user goes into their Approval Inbox they have the option to Approve or Reject the POR using the Approve/Reject icons.
When a user clicks on either the Approve or Reject icon, a message appears at the bottom of the screen:
"Work Item is been Processed, Please Wait"
When this message disappears the work item is not processed and remains in the Approver's inbox unprocessed.
If anybody has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Pat

Hello Nagarajan,
Thanks for the response. I have realised that the Approve/Reject buttons should not be used with PORs. I am still a little unsure as to how it is supposed to work though. Take the scenario below:
A buyer orders a quantity of 10
The vendor responds with a quantity of 7 which is outside the tolerances and goes to approval
If the buyer does not accept the response but wants to request 10 again what should they do?
1) If they copy the POR to their PO a changed PO is sent to the Vendor with a quantity of 7.
2) If they copy the PO to the POR but untick the header and item levels in the POR, the SUS PO remains in a status of Confirmed so the vendor will ship the goods.
Which options above is most suitable when the Buyer wants to request the 10 again? Option 2 and then to manually change the PO to a quantity of 10?
Regards
Pat

No event raised for BUS2209 Purchase order response

Hi Folks,
Have any of you experiensed that the SAVED event for POR is not raised?
I checked the event trace ( No restrictions) and there is no entry after the POR is saved.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but when I save a POR that is manually entered via transaction BBPPCO02 "Enter Purchase Order Response " and it has a variance as the message says, "position 1 price outside tolerance limit"
If I test the start condition i SWB_PROCUREMENT I get a TRUE on both WS14500019 and WS14500007.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

Purchase order response(POR) in SRM

Hello SRM Experts,
We would like to implement Purchase order response(POR) functionality of SRM 5.0. The client requirement is to set POR flag at PO item level, expect POR from the vendor and no GR/IV should be allowed either in SRM or ECC until POR is provided by the vendor.
We have the following questions.
1. If POR flag is set, does it stop GR/IV either in SRM or ECC?
2. When POR is posted in SRM does POR flag is re-set in SRM?
3. When POR is created in SRM, does it create any follow-on docs in ECC.
Looking forward to hear from you all soon.
Regards,
Sasikala

Hi Sasikala.
Referring to your questions:
PO Response is just an acknowledgement document by the vendor to state that he is in agreement with the conditions set in the Purchase Order.
1) No GR/IV will not be stopped in SRM or ECC. If the client wants it that ways then I believe custom code needs to be written.
2) No...reason being you can create as many PO Responses as want for a given PO...the latest will be active and all the responses created before that are obsolete.
3) No follow on documents are created in ECC while creation of PO Response as after the PO Response changes are accepted in PO, only then the PO is replicated to ECC again with change version.

SRM 7.0 Purchase Order Response always in status "In process" after confirm

Hello experts,
this problem is similar to the thread [SRM-SUS Purchase Order Response always "In Status"; which has been not finally responded.
My problem exists in an environment without SUS.
When a buyer confirms a PO response (POR) without any change, the system generates a new PO response with status "In process". This new POR has also to be confirmed or rejected but the system generates again a new PO response with status "In process".
So we have a very nice loop for the purchaser without escape!
We are on SRM 7.0 SP07. The other thread mentioned that SAP will create some OSS notes, but I found nothing about this problem.
Any ideas?
Regards
Joe

Hi Gurus.
I want to share my experience with this case.
We have the same scenario, Confirm PO, the result is PO confirmed, but we receive a response from ECC and this Confirmed PO changes its status to "In Process" / "En Tratamiento".
The new relevant information is that we added 2 new fields to the item PO, these fields are filled ok and sent to ECC.
In a first time these new fields were lost due to the response from ECC. To avoid this situation I implemented the BADI BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI for BUS2230, and method BBP_SUSPO_CHANGE to copy from the BBP_PDISC (Object BUS2230) rows the values to the new rows in the same table BBP_PDISC (Object BUS2201).
With this change the new documents are confirmed directly and not changed to "In Process"/ "En tratamiento".
That was my experience, now I have a question...
In the correct business process for SAP SRM SUS when you confirm full a PO...
* this will be blocked or no?
* Can be modified the confirmed items?
* This depends of customizing?

Suppress PO output in case a PO is updated by a purchase order response

Experts,
we are in SRM 5.0. We are trying to suppress any PO output when a PO is updated by purchase order response. We are experimenting with PO output start conditions (Customizing). No succes until now. We tried to check whether the object status table has status 'Variance in PO response' (I1352). No effect.
Does anybody have a clue or even better, an example, how to achieve this without the use of BADI's or defining any customer fields?
Apparantly when a purchase order is updated via the purchase order response the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI is not triggered, or at least we were not able to debug it, so it looks like this is no option either.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help, Maurice de Feijter

Hello Jay, thanks for your suggestion. We are currently implementing SP 14 to 17 in which the note you mentioned is included. Unfortunately PO output is still not suppressed automatically when a PO response is accepted and copied to the PO, even if no content is changed (price, quantity, delivery date ....) .
That is the reason why we were looking for the possibility to use start conditions in customizing. The main problem there it that we do not know how to recognize that a PO change is triggered by the PO response, and how to configure that in a condition. SAP docu does not give any clue.
So, any other suggestion is welcome

SRM-SUS Purchase Order Response always "In Status"

Hi Gurus,
When a buyer confirms a PO response without any change, the system generates a new PO response with status "In process". And so, when the buyer views the new PO response, the "Confirm Response" and "Reject Response" buttons are still active and the buyer can still confirm the response. When the buyer confirms the new PO response, the system will again generate a new PO response with status "In process".
We are on SRM 7.0 SP05. We did not activate the following workflows:
WS14500001 Auto Transfer of PCO
WS14500019 Transfer PCO Data to PO
Would really appreciate any help.

Kezia

Hi
XI Seems to be good as the XML message is getting processed in SRM and is creating a POR Document. Here are the steps for configuring POR:
1. Define NUmber Ranges
2. Activate Event Linkages and Start Conditions for WS14500001.(this is predelivered in standard system)
3. Configurations for Tolerances for qty and date...
Did you process the POR from PO?
You need to go to Process Purchase Order Response , searched for PORs and then take action on the PORs in pending statuses.....
POR functionality is pretty much straightforward feature which works smoothly.....If you are not able to sort it out using this forum, write detaisl to SAP, they can look into your system

Quation rejected but i can issue purchase order for the rejected.

hi, i have several issues to be solved
i rejected a quotation but i can issue purchase order for the rejected quotation..
q1: why SAP had given that option?
q2:How do i restrict user to issue purchase order for rejected quotation?
q3: what i observed was , accepting the quotation entirely lies with user.so what is the criteria for accepting the quotation.. Is it just the price?? If it is the just price then How do i restrict the user to go always for low price quotation?
thanks in advance,
regards,
srini

In SAP R/3, RFQ comparision is done on the basis on price only.( including excluding discounts, delivery cost....).
In true business scenario, lowest cost is not the best solution. There are other qualitative parameters which needs to be considered for taking final decision. These factors can be different for different type of purchases. e.g. for capital goods what is the life of equipment. Total cost simulation is done outside system & PO is created with reference to best fit quote.
In SRM, we can define parameters against which we can evaluate the quote within the system.
Hope this is helpful.
Thanks

Purchase Order Response Not able to do by the Supplier from SUS

Hi Experts,
During sometimes, the supplier is not in a position to make POR from SUS.
After selecting the PO from Supplier side, when they are trying to do POR they are not able to either select Confirm (tick mark) or reject (X mark) from their screen which means always those buttons are in greyed mode or no action like Green or Red respectively. What could be the reason ? However, they can see the Send button.
Please provide me the input to do investigation.
Thanks
Rajesh K

Hi Rajesh,
   If you are not able to respond for PO from SUS then you have to activate the workflow WS14500001.. Here some more workflows you can check for POR
Workflows
You can configure the following workflows for the purchase order response:
·        (WS14500001)
Automatic transfer of purchase order response data into the purchase order. The system carries out a comparison during the data transfer (background processing). If the quantity, price, and delivery date variances transmitted by the vendor are within the tolerance limits set in Customizing, and no other variances are transmitted, then the data transfer of the first inbound POR occurs automatically.
This workflow is relevant for XML receipt or manual entry with subsequent approval.
·        (WS14500019)
If POR data differs from that in the purchase order, you can be informed of this via a work item. As a purchaser, you can decide for each item whether you wish to transfer the data into the purchase order or not.
·        (WS14500007)
If POR data differs from that in the purchase order, you can be informed of this via e-mail (with the number of the purchase order).
·        (WS14500017)
Monitoring receipt of the purchase order response:
If the flag Purchase order response expected is set in the purchase order, and if by a certain time a purchase order response has not been received for all items in a purchase order, then you can be informed of this via a work item.
SAP WON'T DELIVER ANY WF TEMPLATE WITH NUMBER RANGE OF '9' BECAUSE 99% CUSTOMER USE NUMBER RANGE 9' FOR CUSTOM WORKFLOW..

Purchase Order Response Auto process

Hi Experts,
I have tried to confirm the purchase order completely using the "Green tick" button, it is working fine.
But the status of the POR is "In process". However when I try to reject it completely usign "Red" button, the status is "Rejected by Vendor", which is appropriate.
Below are the customizing done related to the purchase order response.
1. Created the number ranges for POR
2. Activate the workflow WS14500001
3. Created the starting condition for WF WS14500001
I have come across one more step of set tolerance limit for the POR process.
Could you please tell me that do I need this step? If not, any clue of the issue mentioned above with satus "In Process"?
We are in the below SRM version and SP.
Version SRM 5.5
Support package: SAPKIBKT14
Your help will be highly appriciated appropriately.

SRM Purchase Order Response in SRM 7.0

In SRM 7.0 is there a transaction where a purchase order response to can be entered manually for purchase order or loaded from a spreadsheet? Or does a purchase order response always require XI?

External number range for purchase order response?

Hi all,
is it possible to use an external number range when creating purchase order responses (BUS2209, PCO, POR) manually?
If I transfer the POR from an external system like SUS via XML, can I use an external number range?
I'm using SRM 4.0 (EBP 5.0) in standalone scenario with Business Connector 4.7 as XML interface.
Any help is appreciated,
Karsten

Hi
No need to maintian Internal number range.. Yes you need to use an external number range
Only the PO, RQ & RS are sync and therefore must correspond with the R/3 number ranges.
The rest, Shop Cart (SC), Local PO (EBP), Confirmation, Invoice, Bid Inv and Bid, aren't synced and can be assigned to any number range. (FYI- using ECS)

Purchase Order Response in SRM 4.0 through XI

Hi Friends
We are working on SRM 4.0. We are sending a PO from SRM to R/3 usng XI in xml format.
Now we want the Purchase Order Response in SRM from R/3 through XI. How can we achieve that?
We have used an RFC receiver Adapter in XI to connect to SRM and we have mapped the ORDRSP IDoc to the PurchaseOrderConfirmation Message Type. But in the Message Monitoring of the RWB we are getting an error:
Exception caught by adapter framework: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: functiontemplate from repository was
Delivery of the message to the application using connection AFW failed, due to: error while processing message to remote system:com.sap.aii.af.rfc.core.client.RfcClientException: functiontemplate from repository was .
How to resolve this?
In which format does this PO response should be sent to SRM and How to send this?
Thanks in Advance....

Hi Chris
Thanks for the Response
But Chris, I have some doubts regarding this.
What is XI proxy Framework?
I think the Proxy Framework consists of the Proxy Generator and the Proxy Runtime. The Proxy Framework for ABAP (generator and runtime) is part of the SAP Web Application Server and no specific installation is needed.
Is the same as XI Framework?
Dont we require any mapping? Because Iam getting the Sales Order details through ORDRSP IDoc fron the Vendor. So in order to transfer the data to SRM I require the mapping.
Please Respond Immediately....
Thanks in Advance...

Thanks in Advance....

in pre-XI times in order to Acknowledge IDocs you used ALEAUD which is an incoming IDoc to the sending SAP system that collects all the received idocs in the receiving system and sends there processing status to the sending system.
Problem is that this IDoc can only be generated on a job schedule.
This is a shot in the dark but Maybe you can try to find this IDoc on the XI side and map to it the RFC response,
this way you'll acknowledge the IDoc that basically were send to xi from the sending system.
Why not using Sending Idoc on R\3, Recieving IDoc on SRM,sending ALEAUD from SRM to R3 all through xi???
