RFC_VMC_COMMUNICATION_ERROR in SRM

Hi Guys,
We have this scenario wherein offline stores send their shopping carts through email via XI to SRM. The problem we face is that some of the messages in SXMB_MONI end up getting stuck in a queue with a message RFC_VMC_COMMUNICATION_ERROR. The weird thing about this is that some messages don't have any problems getting processed by SRM, while the others error. We have checked the data being sent, and there seems to be no problem with that.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Regards,
Glenn

Thank you Ramki and Nishant for your replies.
Ramki,
I tried executing txn. BBP_CND_CHECK_CUST, but everything seems fine:
IPC Pricing is Active and clicking Simulation of Pricing with Manual Price displays the prices with no error messages.
Note: 1170229 does not exist
Nishant,
We tried increasing the VM of the server, but we are still getting this problem.
What we did yesterday was to send multiple shopping carts via email containing the same data. What we found was that some of the messages go through without problems, while others get stuck in the queue with the error mentioned. We concluded that this shouldn't be a data problem since some of the messages get to be processed, while others don't. Any more ideas guys?:)
Warm regards,
Glenn

Creation of a Goods receipt based on an ASN in SRM

Hi,
we want to implement a scenario like this (with SRM 7.0):
1) Requester creates Catalog SC;
2) SC gets approved;
3) PO is created (at this moment we haven't chosen between classic or Extended Classic scenario)
4) Supplier Connects to a Portal (not SRM) and post an ASN in SAP Backend
5) (THIS IS THE QUESTION): is it possible for the Requester (who created the SC) to post (in SRM) a GR based on the ASN that it has been created in SAP?
Additional Info: in this scenario SUS system is not foreseen; only SRM (EBP) and SAP backend system
Thanks
Max

How to get the values from table SKB1 R/3 to SRM

Hi Gurus,
My requirement is to get all the values from the table SKB1 to SRM (i.e. in to an internal table) for doing some validation(G/L account XXXXXX requires an assignment to a CO objectXXXXXX.)
Like wise I have many tables for doing validation in SRM
Help me how to get this, suggest me any Function module with sample code.
OR
Any Standard FM which will give all the values of the fields in the table SKB1 when I pass the key fields G/L account & company code alone so that I can improve the performance.
Suggest me.
Regards
Paul

Hi,
You can use the FM 's META_READ_TABLE Or RFC_READ_TABLE
Which SRM / Backend system version are you using ?
Are you taking care of the Importing paramater - DELIMITER in this case.. ??*
See related links ->
Re: Retrieving data from R/3 into SRM
Re: Product Search TIME lag
Else you can just call the remote enabled FM "BAPI_GL_ACC_GETDETAIL" from SRM.

Open and close a PO in web dynpro in SRM 7.0 screen .

Hi All ,
I am creating a PO in SRM 7.0 by using excel upload via web dynpro screen .
After the upload , I see that there are some problems with the PO in web dynpro .
For example , when i click on the line item it dumps and there are some other similar problems .
When I save the PO close it and reopen it , the problem goes away . May be the system handles them in some way
So , is there a way in which I can close and reopen the po through coding ?
I know there are buttons at the top that close the PO , but some how I could not get the code for that .
I will really appreciate the help here .
Thanks in advance ,
Ambar Patil.

Hi...
By first instance, i think that problem may be with uploading from excel. because sometimes excel data conversion will not done properly. So due to incorrect values, PO may go into dump.. that is my thought.
if not lets wait for others answers

How to Delete the PO Error in Transfer in SRM

Hi All,
Can you tell me , what FM should i use to delete the PO in SRM
I was using FM META_PO_DELETE , but guess it deletes the PO in the Backend.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
You want to delete the PO completely from the DB or just mark it as delete?
If you want to delete it from the database then use the FM BBP_PD_PO_DB_DELETE.
This will delete the PO completely from DB.
If you just want to mark it as delete then there is button "Delete" in the PO you can use it. The PO is set to delete and the same info is transfered to backend.

Zubair.

How to correct the error
Probably the only way to eliminate the error is to correct the program.
If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
keywords:
"ASSERTION_FAILED" " "
"CL_FPM========================CP" or "CL_FPM========================CM004"
"ADD_EVENT_TO_QUEUE"
If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
notification to SAP, include the following information:
1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
2. Corresponding system log
Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
program: The source code of the program
In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
actions and input led to the error.

Creation of multiple contracts in ERP backend from 1 GOA in SRM

Hello fellow SRM'ers, we are on SRM 5.5 and we have a scenario where we create a GOA in SRM and it get's created as a contract in the ERP backend system. This is working fine. Now our client would like to have multiple contracts created in the backend, one for each company when the GOA is saved. I found OSS note 646903, statement #2 that explains how to code the badi bbp_ctr, but is this all that is required to do this? It seems to me that the code in BBP_CTR will only create 1 contract/idoc. Can anyone tell me how we generate an idoc/contract that we want to create in ERP backend? Or is this how it's done?
Points will be rewarded for usefull answers. I have read most of the posts on this forum and have not found any answers yet.
Thanks,
Marty

Hi,
Please go through the below explanation from SAP documentation which says the no of contracts that would be created in the backend depends on
--If you activate grouping logic for locations in GOA from SPRO under cross aplication settings, items belonging to the same release-authorized purchasing organization, but different locations, can be grouped together into one backend contract. This requires a 1:1:1 relationship between an item, the release-authorized purchasing organization, and the location. This means that for each item, you can only assign one release-authorized purchasing organization, and one location, in order to release the GOA.
If you do not select this indicator to activate the grouping logic for location, a separate backend contract is created for each item belonging to the same release-authorized purchasing organization, but with different locations. Only items referring to the same release-authorized purchasing organization and location can be combined into one backend contract.---
So the bottomline is by default, when we distribute one separate contract is created for each location.
Hope this clarifies.
Regards,
RRK

Technical Help on creation of an Object in SAP SRM 4.0

Being on SAP SRM 4.0, we currently have a requirement for creation of Need Definition( Basically a build up for the contract ). Need being collected from the Backend systems need to be validated and approved by Buyers & Lead Buyers in the SRM system.
Technically, this task is broken down to below tasks.
1) Creation of need definition screen - Basically a template where a need can be created with Items, Sub Items and other related information
2) Selection Screen for Buyers and Lead Buyers - This enables the the Buyers to select the Need Definition assigned to them based on the status.
3) Report - List of all the Need Definition( Item and Sub Item)satisfying the selection of step 2. with the possibility to navigate to the Need Definition screen ( Step 1) upon selection.
Now the question is,
what technology is recommended for the above Tasks? We thought it would be BSP but do you guys have any suggestions...
Do we have any issues in displaying the report in BSP? please let me know
Remember we are version 4.0 of SRM.
Thanks in Advance..
Mohan.

Even though I don't have much knowledge on BSP, it should be a good option. Since SAP has used BSP to develop new screens in SRM 5.0.

Tax error while posting an invoice in SRM

We are using SRM 5.5 SP4, ECS and ECC 6.0. We are using vertex for tax caluculation and we configured the tax calculation to always occur in ECC.
One more important point is, client has decided to use invoicing in SRM. Now the problem is we ran in to so many tax related issues and we opened OSS messages for this but SAP did not help. Let me explain the problem in detail.
1) We used to get "Tax jurisdiction code could not be determined" error while creating shopping cart, but we implemented note 436760 and hardcoded a value and got rid of that error.
2) When we create a SC, the copy of PO is created in ECC and vertex is called for tax calculation and tax is calculated properly based on the tax hierarchy except when you use the Shipping Address (external), so when I used the delivery address other than plant, it should calculate based on that address but it was not doing that, its calculating based on the cost object's jurisdiction code. For this problem, we have implemented ME_ADDRESS BADI in ECC, but with this BADI, it is always taking delivery address's jurisdiction code, which is also wrong.
The tax jurisdiction determination should be from 1) Delivery address if its different from plant, else it should look in to the cost object, else storage location then plant.
So we implemented the above logic in that BADI and there is no problem with PO taxes.
3) When we create an invoice with reference to PO, the invoice verification program is always determining the tax jurisdiction code from plant even though the taxes on PO are calculated based on cost object, hence the IDOC is erroring out by saying there is a difference in tax.
So we implemented the user exit and used the same logic of tax determination and its fixed now.
4) Finally, we are trying to create invoices without PO's in SRM, here no tax calculation is happending in SRM, but when we try to post the invoice in to ECC, we are getting the following error
"SAX processing failed on input stream#SAX processing failed when attempting to add child element to parent. (parent element=com.vertexinc.tps.common.domain.LineItem, child element=com.vertexinc.tps.x.."
So I am not sure how to fix this, we are at the dead end now out of ideas, so trying to get some help from experts like you about looking at this problem in a different angle. Now there are a couple of questions I can ask you
1) Did we do something wrong by selecting R/3 as the tax calculation system, if not is it difficult to fix this error and move forward?
2) What if we need to change the design and start calculating the taxes in SRM by connecting SRM to Vertex, will there be any new challenges? and do you have any config doc for this? Also we are implementing this rollout for US, Canada and Mexico companies.
I would really appreciate if you can reply me with your valuable input. You can also email me if @ [email protected]
Thanks a lot,
Sreedhar

Hi
It's recommended to have the same Tax related configuration data replicated in SRM system from R/3 as well.
I don't recommeded you to go with Hard-coding of tax codes.
We have faced similar issues with Delivery address and we have to solve it using our custom logic inside the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI and BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK BADIs.
Anyways, send the detailed business requirements to my mail which are already having with you. )
I will definitely help you out.
Please refer to following threads as well.

Creation of custom Transaction for confirm goods in SRM

Hi Experts
i need to create a custom transaction same as standard one for confirm goods/servics in SRM portal.
In sap GUI, the transaction is BBPCF03
Can you please suggest any good sources where i can learn to Custome Tcodes for my requirement
Thanks in advance
Edited by: kittu reddy on Nov 19, 2008 7:27 AM

Hi Hussaini,
Here are the steps.
1> Customization needs to be completed in SPRO. Logistics Execution -> Mobile Data entry section. Also compare entries with LM01 for understanding.
2> In the 'Define menu management', you can create dynamic menus. For Menu or transaction type, if you enter "1", a menu appears; if you enter "2", a transaction appears. Custom transactions can be created and assigned here.
Once that is done, when you execute LM01 you will see your custom transactions come up. Make sure that these are created keeping in mind the RF device screen size and limitations.
Regards,
Anand.
