Does SAP SRM support recurring transaction?

Dear SAP SRM Guru's,
Does SAPSRM support recurring transaction? In few business scenario like lease of a house, or EMI payment of a purchase, the transactions are uniform and repetitive. So, it does not make any sense to create a PO everytime to make payment to the supplier.
ECC MM does support invoicing plan for such functionality. Does SAP SRM support such recurring transaction in standard? Can you suggest any workaround for that if possible?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Ranjan,
As far as i know SAP SRM does not support recurring transaction or invoicing plan PO. The Alternative for you requirement like EMI payment or monthly charges etc can be met in SAP SRM with Limit cart.
You can create a LIMIT cart with value limit and accordingly keep doing GR for part value.
Thanks

Does SAP SRM support accelarated service procurement?

Dear Guru's ,
Can you comment on if SAP SRM supports accelerated service procurement ? My client follows the below business process time to time:
While requiring to perform emergency services (which are also not high valued service), they directly create service entry sheet entering the service performed and create invoice against it in their existing MM system. They donot go for purchase creation and approval process as the effort does not justify the value of the transaction.
Now, since they are going for SAP SRM system, they want to transfer the accelerated service procurement process to SRM system as well.
Does SAP SRM support this business process i.e. creation of service entry sheet or confirmation without any reference to Purchase Order? I donot have any system to check it from myside..
Your inputs will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi
In Std SRM - GR is always is done with reference to Purchase Order
Therefore it is not possible to post GR or Services without any PO
Thanks

Does SAP SRM support scanned document?

Dear Experts,
Does SAP SRM support scanned document in the sense that it can create system document out of a scanned document?? or do we need third party software like OCR, open text etc?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

I believe you'd need a third party scanning software. SRM does not provide such feature.

Hi Muthu,
if we take e.g. note 1302207. This was created a short while ago after SP14 was delivered. It has to be included in the next support package.
So the entry with SP15 here means that it is included in SP15 if it is released.
Hope that i could help.

Approver not determined process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0

Hello all,
I have setup process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0 EHP3 for shopping cart approval.
I have 4 approval levels.
I have used item-based Decision for entire document because for some items i want system approval.
In implementation of BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER, in the method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP, i am skipping the items for which i want system approval.
Also in method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID of BADI implementation class, i am keeping the approver table empty for the step which i want system approval.
For example i have 1 item in shopping cart and for 1st step, based on some accouting criteria, i want system approval for 1st level and the workitem should go directly to 2 approval step when shopping cart is ordered. This is not happening.
But if i have multiple items, and one item should have system approval based on some criteria and the 1st approval level should be system approval and other item should go to the 1st approver. This is happening and showing 'system' approver for item1 and 'appr_xyz' for item 2.
For shopping cart having only 1 item, If i approve the shopping cart in this state only, it doesn't go to any approver and is not usable.
am i missing anything in BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER??
Please let me know.
Regards,
Yayati Ekbote

Hi Adrian,
Yes it is possible to display custom workflows in the Universal Worklist, However, I am not sure what you are trying to do with a routing table. If the workitems are of type decision, you can use UserDecisionHandler (action handler) configured in the XML file to use the Approve/Reject functionality - we are talking about webflow connector here correct? R/3 connector?

SAP EP 6.0 SP12 Integration with SAP SRM 4.0

Hi Buddys,
When I am trying to create system in SAP EP for the backend SAP SRM Server using SAP Wizard in SAP EP, and testing the connection with test connection option, test is always failing.
In system creation wizard (SAP system for dedicated application server), values for connector, user managemnet have been maintained as mentioned in How to guides for SAP EP and alias for system has been created.
SAP EP has been installed with option to use SAP Backend SRM Server for Users.After SAP EP Installation, all SAP users in back end SAP SRM can be seen in SAP EP.
Software versions:
SAP EP : EP 6.0 SP12
SAP J2EE Engine : J2EE engine 6.4 SP13
O/S : Windows 2003 Server
SAP SRM : SRM 4.0 on SAP WAS 6.4
Your help in this regard is much appreciated.
Regards,
Prasad

Hi Venkat,
When you create a system choose "SAP system using dedicated application server".
The minimum parameters for creating the system are
application host
Logical System Name -
Logon method - UIDPW
SAP System ID
SAP CLIENT
SAP System Number
server port
System NAme
System type - SAP_R3
user mapping type - admin, user
Create an alias, specify the userid and password for the system in Personalization and then do the test for the connection.
Even then if it fails you can go to Sys Admin--> Support --> Sap Application --> SAP Transaction
choose the system, specify the tcode, specify the gui type and hit go. If you execute the transaction code then the connection is OK.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Praveen

SAP SRM Prod with Oracle DB and AIX 5.3 Performance Issue.

Hi Basis Gurus,
Today my SAP PRD system all of a sudden was running slow and users had difficulties executing TCodes as it took minutes before the screen appeared.My system is SAP SRM 4.00, Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 and AIX 5.3.
From Basis point of view , we noticed that all the work process were hanged due to RFCs' occupying it.Couldnt investigate further on the system as we needed to restart asap because users needed to log on. A quick check on SICK shows no errors.What we managed to find out is that we needed to check this parameter below and set it accordingly:-
rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp:-
Definition
Number of work processes kept free for other users.
Use
This parameter is used to reserve a number of dialog work processes for dialog mode. It prevents parallel RFCs from occupying all the processes.
The parameter rdisp/wp_no_dia specifies the absolute number of dialog work processes.
Unit: number of dialog work processes
Default value: 1
Example
If 10 dialog work processes are configured for the instance (rdisp/wp_no_dia = 10) and the parameter rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp = 3 is set, parallel RFCs can occupy a maximun of 7 dialog work processes. Three dialog work processes always remain free for dialog mode.
There are 20 DIA processes in our system, perhaps reserving a minimum of about 5 work processes for DIA users will be useful via the parameter.
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
When we went for a restart of the system we encountered another issue. Steps to the issue are as below:-
1) Did a proper shutdown of Oracle and SAP.
2) When we start using startsap script, it doesn't start DB so we started DB manually but listener was having problem
 so we stopped all.
3) We also did a cleanipc, it too throws below error:-
sidadm> cleanipc <systemno> remove
 exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program cleanipc because of the following errors:
 0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for cleanipc because:
 0509-136 Symbol memmove (number 106) is not exported from
 dependent module /usr/sap/sid/SYS/exe/run/libsapu16.so.
 0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
 'dump -Tv' command.
4) Also the Listener file has no contents,it's null file.
5) This is another error :-
 exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /oracle/sid/112_64/bin/tnslsnr because of the following errors:
 0509-150 Dependent module /oracle/sid/112_64/lib/libttsh11.so could not be loaded.
 0509-101 The module has too many section headers
 or the file is damaged
The libttsh11.so file was empty dated 25th timestamp as below in PRD:-
-rw-rr 1 sid dba 0 Nov 25 07:12 libttsh11.so
Further checking has let me to understand this is an Oracle Bug from this link:-
http://gavinsoorma.com/2009/12/11-1-0-6-clusterware-upgrade-to-11-1-0-7/
This Oracle bug only happens in an Upgrade time and how could this happen to my Production system during a restart process.
Also this system was restarted during the last weekend's maintainance window and it came up with no issues.
6) We copied over the libttsh11.so from our QA environment to PRD and did a Startup:-
-rwxr-x--- 1 sid dba 65967496 Nov 25 07:40 libttsh11.so (This is the copied over file from QA)
7) After Startup everything has been in order till now.
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before. Hope all the Gurus here could shed some light into my 2 questions as I am looking for positive answers.
Thank you.
Regards,
John

Hi,
Firstly I would suggest you to upgrade your database from Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 to Oracle Release 11.2.0.2 . This is the recommended Oracle 11g database version for SAP solutions. Many of your problem will get resolved with it.
Question 1:
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
For immediate resolution the approach you have followed is correct viz limiting number of dialog processes for RFC. Secondly you need to analyze why RFC processing takes so much time. You need check which programs are getting executed by those RFC.
Generate EarlyWatch report for more detailed view
Question 2:
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before.
The libttsh11.so library cannot be found in the related directory.
Cause
The file system is mounted using CIO option, but per Note 257338.1 Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L, an ORACLE_HOME on a filesystem mounted with "cio" option is not supported.
Such a configuration will cause, installation, relinking and other unexpected problems.
Solution
Disable the CIO option on the filesystem.
References
NOTE:257338.1 - Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L
Hope this helps.

XI content for SAP SRM SERVER 6.0

Hi All,
I want to implement SRM-MDM CATALOG Business scenario, but i am not getting the XI content for Software Component Version SAP SRM SERVER 6.0.
Can anybody tell me from where to get the XI content for Software Component Version SAP SRM SERVER 6.0.
Helpful answers will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Shiv

Hi Shiv,
You can get the XI contents for SRM Server 6.0 under this URL:
https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/swdc
Support Packages and Patches -> SAP Application Components -> SAP SRM (WITH SAP EBP) -> SAP SRM 6.0 -> Entry by Component -> XI Content
But for this, you requires a valid marketplace user-id and password.
But according to my understanding, you can use the XI contents for SRM MDM Catalog 1.0 under SAP SRM 5.0 also.
The file name is SRMMDMCAT1000_2-20001719.ZIP.
Thanks

SAP SRM - ERP INTEGRATION

Hello,
we are designing application architecture. Our landscape is:
- ECC 6.0
- SRM 5.0
- XI 7.0
We are thinking of using XI as middleware even for those scenario in which in not required (es. Contract Managament):
In particular every time we have a communication based on IDOC we want to use XI as communication middleware. Pure RFC integration will not use XI.
Has anyone some experience on this?
Thanks

SMSY-Diagnostic Configuration for SAP SRM 5.0

Hi!
I would like to set up the Diagnostics for SAP SRM 5.0.
SAP SRM 5.0 has ABAP and J2EE stack as well (and TREX).
When I define the system as SAP SRM 5.0 in tcode SMSY and assign the Java system component of type SAP NetWeaver/SAP NetWeaver 04/Application Server Java:
Unfortunately when I start SMD Setup wizard no java relevant components are visible.
Furthermore I do not get any data under Workload Analysis and receive:
The solution / systems you selected do not contain any software components currently supported by E2E Workload Analysis
My question is:
What is the right definition of SAP SRM 5.0 for Solution Manager Diagnostics?
Thank you very much
regards
Thom

Before you can move forward with SMD, you need to make sure the following components are working....
1. SLD is running on Solution Manager and SMSY is able to read from it.
2. The SCM system is registered with the SLD
3. You created a landscape which has a leading role that correlates to the role for your SCM system in SMSY.
4. You've installed the SMD agent on the CM system
Please confirm that you have completed the above.
