SC (SRM) = PO (BE) with limit item (Itm.Cat = B)

Dear all,
in SRM I create a SC with two items, the first item is quit normal (material, cost center assignment, etc). The second item is a copy of the first one, unit of measure is LE. Now when this SC is transfered into the BE I want the PO to contain a limit item ( item category = B). The customer is using the classic scenario and upgraded from SRM4.0 to SRM7.0.
What are the important flags/tables etc. in BADI BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK, method FILL_PO_INTERFACE.
Currently I'm filling the following parameters:
PO_SRV_ACCOUNT,
PO_LIMITS
zusätzliche Kontierungsinformationen für Serviceposition
      clear ls_po_srv_account.
      ls_po_srv_account-pckg_no    = ls_po_items-pckg_no.
      ls_po_srv_account-percentage = '100'.
      ls_po_srv_account-serial_no = '01'.
      append ls_po_srv_account to po_srv_account.
PO Limits
      ls_po_limits-limit     = ls_po_items-net_price.
      ls_po_limits-exp_value = ls_po_items-net_price.
      APPEND ls_po_limits TO po_limits.
The PO will be created in the backend with the two items, but the item category of them is blank (= normal item).
Does anyone of you have an idea what is missing?
Kind regards,
Thomas

Hello Laurent,
I don't know. I think this is something from former times when they had been running on SRM4.0 and they simply took over.
The UoM is LE and in the BE there should be an appropriate line item in the PO with category B (= Limit).
How do I define limit items in SRM?
Kind regards,
Thomas

Contract Release value is not updated with Limit item value

We have SRM 4.0 with ECS scenario.
Contract are created in SRM and replicated to ERP.
If we create PO with Service line and Limit line using contract in both of these line items, contract Release value is getting updated only with Service line item value.
But the contract Total value is the addition of Service and Limit value of PO.
Why Contract Release value is not getting updated with Limit item value. Please help as early as possible.

Hi Sandeep
Yes. there are various reasons .upon your contract incorrect status and linkage not establised / or more attachment in SRM GOA.
what type of contract are you using? GOA or CCTR
If it is GOA - which version of SRM and service pack ?are you in ?
If it is a GOA , BLAREL idoc might failed to post the release value in the SRM .
How contracts are created material / mat group ?
to fix or understand the issue, you need to recreate the issue.
what is the ERROR in BLAREL in SRM idoc monitoring ?

SC with Limit Item using Extended Classic Scenario?

Hello,
Can we implement SC with Limit Item using Extended Classic Scenario.
I mention that we replicate the Product Categories from R/3 backend.
We have tried to create a SC with Limit item, but the data on Quantity, Price and Tax is not picked up at PO level.

Shaiek

Hi
Please try out this.
For the time-being,
Try de-activating all the custom BADI Implementations and check, what is happening, in the standard SRM system. How does it behave incase of limit item ?
Incase it works fine, without any Custom Implementation active in the system, I suspect there is something wrong in your current deactivated BADI Implementation.
Since i don't have access to your system , Please paste the code here.
Hope this will help.

Approval of Shopping cart with limit items

Hi All,
We are using n-step item level approval (BADI) for shopping cart approval.
The approval process is working fine but when i create a shopping cart with limit items, the shopping cart goes withous approval.
The approval process is also working fine if i am including 1 limit item and one normal item.
Please let me know why is approval process not working for shopping carts with only limit items.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hello,
approving a shopping card without any workflow
is impossible in the Standard SRM case.
As there is no workflowlog anymore , it was deleted somehow. Please
ceck if you got processes where the workflow will be archived or deleted
after a while.
The question in my point of view is, why was there a workflow
without any approval steps ?
As i can see you are using only the workflow ws14500015 which
is a badi workflow. So the behaviour is controlled from your
badi,as all approvers come from the BADI.
If there is a automatic approving then the BADI brings not back
any approver and the setrelease method of the workflow is triggered
then immetiately to set the status to "released" = "approved".
To Do:
Check your BADI for Shopping Cards like the example one mentioned above.
Make sure that the workflow logs persist in the system for analysing
the processes and to get the correct approval preview.

Gaurav

Blank Line Item for Rfx Response with Limit Item

Hi All,
I have a problem in rfx response for limit item. When creating RFx for limit item, I am using display limit as 'Available to Bid On' and using short text in RFx line item (not using product code). But when bidder creating rfx response, all field in line item is blank (no short text, product category, currency, etc) and bidder need to click on details to see item data. Is this a standard?FYI I'am using SRM 7.0 with extended classic scenario.
I already try display limit as 'Accept or Reject Possible' but the problem still persists.
Rgds,
Aleluya.

Hello Aleluya,
As per standard system behaviour you user should be able to see these details in the Item overview screen itself. There is no need to navigate to the details of the same to view them.
Only to enter price bidder needs to go details of the limit item.
Have you done any custom changes for the reported scenario here or you are using the standard feature.
Best Regards,
Rahul

BAPI_PO_CREATE1 to create PO with limit item (item category = B)

Hello,
I want to create a PO with a limit item (category = B). What are the important parameters/tables which have to be filled.
Currently I'm filling the following:
POHEADER + POHEADERX
POITEM + POITEMX
POSCHEDULE + POSCHEDULEX
POACCOUNT + POACCOUNTX
POSRVACCESVALUES
POLIMITS
The package number in the item matches with the one which is used in POSRVACCESSVALUES and POLIMITS. When I debugg the function module everything looks fine to me and a PO is also created BUT it does not contain any item with category = B.
Does anyone of you have an idea what is missing?
Kind regards,

Issue with limit item in ECC

Hi,
We are facing one issue with Shop with Default (Limit items) in ECC.
In basic data tab, if any value is entered in any field and press enter then that value is not getting reflected in that field. But if we enter the value and click on check then that value get reflected .
The reason is BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI is not get triggered if we press only enter but it gets triggered if click on check.
We also tested in Classic case , its working fine in Calssis case.
Do you have idea for this?
Do you know any note that we have to apply for ECC?
Thanks in Advance.
Snehal

The lineitems and such will always be saved with English values. You are supposed to for display purposes, re-lookup the product in the appropriate language when you display it on the cart and what not.

Deleting Limit Items on PO even though follow on documents exist

Dear SRM Experts
I am hoping someone can explain the below behaviour:
Where PO's have follows on documents i.e. confirmation and /or invoice you cannot delete PO's items on a PO. This makes sense.
However we also have PO's with Limit items(created via limit type shopping carts) and even though the PO's have been confirmed and invoiced we can still delete the items on the PO. Is this standard behavior or a bug?
Why then can you not delete normal items but can delete limit type items where follow on documents have been posted for a PO?
Thanks
Nishad.

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?
Incase of Limit Items, it is a bug.
We have raised a similar issue with SAP some time back and still waiting for SAP to get back on this.
Hope this will help.

Goods Recipts for Limit item SC

Hi,
When we create shopping cart with limit item and choose the "confirmation and invoice option" during the Limit SC creation the backend PO is created with item category 'D'. The service PO is created, but there is no data updated in service tab at the item level, there is only line item created in item overview with the expected value as the net price and Qty as 1 PU. But without the line item in service tab at the item level we cannot do the planned service entry sheet.
Now with the current scenario when i try to do the confirmation in EBP, i have add description, QTY and value details and then i am able to post the document.The staus shows as document posted in backend but when i click to view the document, there is no document to be displalyed. The confirmation data is not getting updated in the follow on documents or in the purchase order history in R/3.
In R/3 i am not able to enter the service entry sheet for the corresponding PO, it says no line items in the PO. Thats because there is no line item in the service tab. I am not able to post the invoice since the GR based IV is checked in PO.
Now my question is whether this is the standard behaviour, cant we do service entry sheet for these kind of PO. How to get the line item detail in the service tab in item level. What is the advantage of this function in SRM if we cannot post service entry sheet.
Please suggest how to overcome this issue.
Regards
GGL

Hi Sanjeev,

SC limit item currency change

Hello,
After creating the SC with limit items, in the soco we create a held PO so that we could change the vendor.
Say SC with 9000 quantity price 1 SEK.
1. In the held PO for the user is changing the currency to EUR and reducing the corresponding quantity to 90 (CONVERSION 1 EUR = 10SEK) and creating the PO.
2. However the SC reappears in the soco with 9000-90 quantity and SC currency SEK. So with this, more POs can be created using step 1.
I checked few notes corresponding to BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and clean_req_req however from the code it looked like only the quantity is considered to set the sourcing indicator and not the net value.
Has anyone faced this problem? Any hints about how to approach this.. I suppose it is a standard error and any BADI changes may not be a good solution.

Very well Sanjay. It was very helpful information. I checked in general it is only quantity that is considered for sourcing.
However regarding the indicator mentioned, I am unable to see the checkbox to set the complete requirement indicator in the item data tab of the PO. We are using SRM 5.0 with SP08. I checked all the sub-tabs like Basic data, partner etc, but was not able to find it. I checking on the PO (BBP_POC) which is on held status.
I also checked the BADI BBP_UI_CONTROL_BADI but there is no method concerning PO and this BADI is not implemented anyway. I checked both in the display mode and the change mode. Is there some specific customization required for activating this?
Thanks again for the info.

Problem with Unknown account assignment with limit order...reply soon...

Hello All,
i am facing problem in confirming the limit order with unknown account assinment.We are using Extended classic scenario with SRM version 5.00 and ECC 6.00. When creating shopping cart with unknown account assignments, shopping carts is getting created fine but when processing goods receipt the system only prompts for distribution by cost center and we do not have the option to selected processing against other account assignment e.g. internal order or network. the Cost center is coming as gray.What i am expecting that as in known account assignment it asks for a drop down and user can select cost center or order the same should happened with unknown account assignment. we have not implemented any badi for the same.
please help me out. Is this a standard behavior of shop with limit order for unknown account assignment where it prompts for cost center only or do i need to implement any badi.

Other related details ->
Use Screen variants (Transaction - SHD0) to change item overview and search result screens.
BADI - There is one BADI to hide/show some SC item creation links, there is one BADI to control screen details of PO, CTR... but not SC (and not external screens).
So, as usual, identify the template and change the HTML code in SE80.
To implement a more complex logic, like the default check box, change the ABAP code (usually in the PBO), if required.
Do let me know.

Limit items on extended classic scenario.

Hi everybody.
We are working in SRM 4.0 with extended classic scenario.
We are testing limit items (not service items), but I can not understand the limit item functionality.
In SC, we can assign contracts form limit items. But when we create PO from the SC, there is not any relationship between PO and contract. Moreover when I create a PO (limit item) from null, I can not assign any contract (field is not available).
In the other hand, in SC (limit item), I can select Follow-Up Actions as Confirmation and Invoice or Invoice. If I select Confirmation and Invoice, when I create a PO, ECC return me a message error, because in ECC, good receives are not allowed for PO with limit item category.
So, I have some questions:
1. Can I use limit items in PO with contract reference?
2. If yes, how can I do it? If not, what is the tab contracts functionality in SC with limit items?
3. What is the functionality to allow confirmations in SC with limit items?
4. Is there any documentation about limit item functionality?
Thanks and regards.
Raúl Moncada.

Hello,
As far as I know, this is a technical limitation. A work around would affect other functionalities.

Limit Items in Extended Classic Scenario

Hi,
Could someone tell me how the Account assignment works for limit items in the standar behaviour?
We are creating SCs with Limit items, and when creating them, we are entering the Account assignment as well. The fact is that when the confirmation is set (the good receipt), the Account assignment is needed again, as if the first assignment were not necessary or even were not useful at all.
Is this the standar behaviaur for limit items?
Many thanks and regards,
Ana
P.D: We are working with SAP SRM 5.0.

Hi!
I forgot to tell that we made mandatory to enter the account assignment when creating the SC. Even though this, the account assignment has to be entered again when creating the confirmation.
Many thanks and regards,
Ana

Limit items in SC

Hi,
What are limit items and can we create a shopping cart for limit item in SRM.
I guess Po can be created for the same.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Manu

Hi,
Limit items are similar to blanket PO, we can create shopping cart with limit item and it will convert to the corresponding PO.
Limit items useful to procure low value items like small parts,office items etc
contains valid limit and predefined period.
shop with limit creates a different type of PO depending on 'confirmation and invoice ' or 'only invoice '
if u choose ' invoice only ' back end PO created with item category with 'B'
If u choose 'confirmation and invoice ' back end PO created wtith item category with 'D'
Limit PO has no quanity and no goods receipts.
Thanks

Create Limit item

Hi,
I am getting an error "No Organizational data exits for the item" while trying to create shopping cart with limit item.
Can we create limit item in Extended classic scenario?
Do we need to set up anything for that in attributes?
Do we need to activate any BADI for that?
Please help me to setup the same.
Thanks,
SS

Hi
No organizational data exists on item level (error message)
Hope you are a purchaser .
check all default attributes which assigned to you before you create a limit cart.
