Send R/3 contracts to MDM Catalog

Hi experts
I am in SRM 5.0 and I would likw to know if iis there a standard process to transfer R/3 contracts to MDM catalog or it's necessary to make a development?
Thanks
Nilson

Hi,
You can use standard IDOC BLAORD03 and use transaction ME308 that send the specified contract to an IDOC structure. Then create in PI\XI the XML you want to transfer to MDM and use the mdm import server.Good Luck

SRM MDM Catalog - Transfer Contracts from SRM - XI - MDM

Hi,
We are implementing SRM MDM Catalog1.0 with SRM 5.0 & ECC 6.0.
We have already configured XI content for MDM Catalog.
We have also done the basic settings for transferring contracts from srm to XI (including Backend System & Check box in Contracts for transfer to catalog).
But when i run the report SRMMDM_CTR_TRANSFER, the log tells me that contracts transfer has been initialized, but I cant see any XML message in SXMB_MONI
Can someone pls help and tell me why is that happening??
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jasmeet

Hi Mausam,
yes we have a SRM system from which we want are going to be sending Contracts, Prod Id's, Product Categories, Suppliers List etc from SRM to MDM using XI.
We have the Pre delivered content for XI from which we have set up the Interfaces etc.
This mapping between SRM-XI-MDM works pretty fine if i try to send Products or suppliers from SRM. I can see the IDOCs being generated. But when i run the report for Contracts, I cant see any IDOC in SXMB_MONI in SRM which is my source system.
So hence my question..... Is there some other way by which Contracts are transferred and if so then how and where can I see it.
Regards,
Jasmeet

Central Contract, MDM Catalog, and classic scenario

Dear SAP experts,
We are in SRM 7.01 with backend ECC 6.05 deploying classic scenario. We are using Central Contract Management in which we negotiate contract in SRM and later distribute it to ECC. We also plan to use SRM-MDM Catalog.
We notice that if we are using classic scenaro, the contract that is used as reference is the contract number in ECC (the one distributed from SRM). So at first we assume that if we want to push the contract data to MDM, we should have pushed the ECC Contract number. However we find out that actually SAP block the ECC Contract coming as distribution from SRM to go to MDM.
Our second option is to use distribution of contract from SRM to catalog. It does using SRM contract number. We create SC and then we pull the catalog item from the catalog (which contain SRM contract number) and then we order. However we end up with 'error in process' in which the system try to create a PR instead in the ECC (meaning that the contract number cannot be read).
We're puzzled with this. How can we use the combination of central contract, MDM catalog and classic scenario? Can we use the combination?
Best regards,
John

If you want the contracts to be in SRM and do not want them to send to Backend, then check this out.
Create a Vendor list for those items in SRM by assigning the local contracts to the vendors.Activate Vendor list for sourcing.
Then local contract data should pick as SOS from the vendor list.
If you can create contracts in Backend for stock material then SC would pick the backend contract as SOS in classic scenario.
Let me know if the above works or not.

SRM MDM catalog with Negative contract price

Hi SRM / MDM Gurus,
I am facing a problem, when transferring contract data from SRM MDM catalog 3.0 to SRM 7.0 shopping cart process.
Scenario:
We have a u201Cnegativeu201D contract Price in MDM and the same I can able to see in the SRM MDM catalog. When trying to add that contract item to shopping cart the price is always positive. For example the SRM MDM catalog contract price is -100.00, when trying to add that item to shopping cart it is always 100.00.
Is there any configuration or OSS to resolve this issue?
Kindly also let me know is it possible pass negative value to shopping cart?
Kindly let me know your comments.
Thanks.
Regards,
Magesh Basavaraj.

ECC TO SRM-MDM CATALOG THROUGH SAP PI

We have a scenario where we are sending data from ECC to SRM-MDM Catalog through SAP PI and data is coming from ECC through proxy and sending to SRM u2013MDM catlog through file adapter. In ESR part we have used SAP defined standard service interfaces (CatalogueUpdateNotification as sender interface and MDMInfoRecordDataTransmission as a receiver interface). The mapping used is also standard one.
Now we have got requirement to send the data for vendor mat no, manufacturer field of info records from ECC to SRM-MDM catlog. But we are unable to find out these two fields in standard interfaces/messages. Can anybody guide us how to add these fields in the current data types or is there any other standard interfaces we can use.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shiv,
Many thanks for your reply.
Since we're not using XI / PI scenario and this is an upgrade from SRM 5.5 to SRM 7, Iu2019m using the same approach that was already used in SRM 5.5 with CCM 2.0.
The idea is that the catalogue and all the records maintained need to be associated to a contract. So, I add the contract ID and the correspondent contract item in the import file, in addition to the supplier name, product ID, price information and so on. I mapped the contract ID with the field contract price.
In relation to the price information fields, as I want it to be visible for any user that accesses the product catalogue, I tried different approaches:
1.Using OCI Price information u2013 amount, currency, price base quantity and price base quantity UoM;
2.Using OCI Price contract u2013 amount, currency, price base quantity and price base quantity UoM;
The first approach didnu2019t work very well, as I was not able to see price information when accessing the catalogue. I could only see it once I transfer the items to the SC. In addition, this approach had one problem. The products were displayed but it was not possible to select the items one by one. To do that I needed to select all the items of the catalogue and after that the detail of the contract ID was displayed in every item, allowing me to choose the items that I want to select to my SC.
The second approach was better as the information was visible when accessing the SC and I was able to select all the items, one by one, as it should be. The main problem of this approach was that Iu2019m getting errors in the SC when the materials have stock u2013 u201CInterface data contains errorsu201D. Or alternatively, if the items didnu2019t have stock, the SC was possible, but when I tried to create a PO from that SC, It simply does not work.
So, can someone help me? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Andreia

Scenario - ( EC6 - XI - SRM-MDM Catalog )

Hi,
I am working on Scenario"Transfer Info records and contracts from ERP, Auto Import of contract and info Records from ERP".
Scenario:

Sender Side:
=>Run Tcode: MECCM in ERP system and send Purchasing info records to Catalog system via XI.
Recvr Side:
=>Same will be received as XML file in a file location(FTP Server running on SRM MDM catalog system).

XI Side:
=>I have uploaded XI Content in repository and same has been transported to Integration Directory also.
=>Using Intergation scenario configurator i have done all configurations in Integration Directory also.
=>I have configured XPATH in condition field for interface determination as dicussed in SAP OSS Note 967088 to be used for ths scenario.
=>Now when i am running the tcode from sender side message is getting stuck in SXMB_MONI with error: No receiver Determined.
I can understand there is some problem in Receiver Determination. When i tried to check all settings, only thing i found fishy was There was no Interface mapping being displayed in Interface determination but condition field is filled as discussed in SAP note 967088.
I doubt there is some problem in interface determination only.
Expert comments are required. I can send you screenshots if required.
Any help is appriciated.
Thanks,

BBP_SAPXML1_OUT_BADI in SRM 7.0 for MDM Catalog

Hi All,
I have a requirement to transfer additional data together with a contract, such as price scales, discounts, and discount scales
If the contract has condition like
scale      Discount
0-10        20%
20-30      30%
from SRM to SRM MDM Catalog.
As a standard practice, we use report SRMMDM_CTR_TRANSFER in SRM to send the standard Contracts from SAP SRM system to the SRM-MDM Catalog repository via SAP XI.
But to transfer additional data , we have to use BBP_SAPXML1_OUT_BADI in SRM 7.0.
If any body worked on the same, please let me know the step by step procedure how to implement BBP_SAPXML1_OUT_BADI.
Regards,
Venkat

Hi Gurus,
Please help on the same.

SRM -MDM Catalog Implementation

Hi All,
I am currently working on SRM-MDM catalog implementation and would like to clear a few queries regarding the same:
1. What are the different possible ways to transfer data from SRM to MDM?
2. In the configuration guide it is mentioned that if you want to send Contract, InfoRecords, Product Data then we have to use XI. Communication between SRM and XI will be using XI protocol. It means we have to create outbound proxy for triggering data from SRM to XI.
Is this correct please confirm. If yes do we have a standard proxy report to do the same.
3. In the Functional Documentation Guide for SRM-MDM catalog it is mentioned that to send contract data from SRM use transaction SRMMDM_CTR_TRANSFER. but though it shows the contract data, it is not able to send data to XI. Is some setting required for sending data to XI?
4. In Functional Documentation Guide for SRM-MDM catalog it is mentioned that to upload Supplier Data from SRM system to SRM MDM Catalog repository use Report ROS_SUPPLIER_SEND_TO_CATALOG. But while executing this report I m getting exception "Function module "BUPA_MWX_BDOC_BPS_FILL_CENTRAL" not found.".
How do I solve this?
Thanks in Advance
Shiv
Note: Points will be awarded to helpful answers.

Hi Shiv,
you can use the import Manger of MDM to upload XML, CSV XSL data files
The connection from SRM to SRM-MDM is done via OCI 4.0.
If you want to replicate data from your backend R/3 system you have to use XI.
2. Please Refer to the installation guide of SRM-MDM there the connection between Backends and XI is expalained in detail.
3-4 . Have you depoyed every file of the istallation there is also a part to be deployed in SRM?

SRM-MDM Catalog - Transfer Product masters

Hi Guys,
I am using SRM 5 and SRM-MDM 2.0. I have uploaded using MDMGX all the product groups, currencies, and UOMs successfully.
Now I have set up XI and SRM for transferring Product masters, suppliers and contracts. When I run BBP_CCM_TRANSFER, I am getting confirmation with green light. However, I am not seeing any messages in SXMB_MONI. But when I send the suppliers, I could see messages in SXMB_MONI in SRM and Xi and both are with checkered flag (successful). But in MDM, I do not see any supplier entry. Where do I see?
Also, why I can not see SXMB_MONI message for product master transfer.
Any help is highly appreciated with loads of points.
thanks,
Surya

Hi Masa,
Thanks for your reply. I have configured Xi communication channel. I have put the FTP server entries and path to the ready folder in communucation channel as per the ftp server set up. But the file is not in Ready folder when I checked the ftp directory path. It didn't even show any entry in SXMB_MONI in SRM. Do I have to make an entry in "Define Backend Systems" in SRM for SRM-MDM catalog?
Also, when I transferred the suppliers it is showing up in SRM and XI under SXMB_MONI as successful but was not there in MDM data manager. Do you know where I can find the supplier that I loaded through XI?
Also, I would like to confirm that my FTP path in communication channel I have changed based on what we configured for our FTP server to the Ready folder and so is it OK or we have to leave it as it is. Is it possible to send me your commincation channel screen shot? I would really appreciate your help.
I will give so many points.
thanks,
Venkata Nibhanupudi

Is use of flat file in SRM-MDM catalog search UI possible ?

Hello,
When user looks for materials inside SRM-MDM catalog (using search user interface), search is done manually with free form or drill down search.
Then, among the search result, user has to select items he wants to add to his shopping cart and finally transfer those items from his shopping cart overview inside SRM.
Is it possible to automate this user selection using for exemple a flat file uploading (or any other way you could know) ?
This flat file will have material number (or service), supplier code and quantity (no more information).
The aim of the request is to help requester to not have to select each item one by one (in the search result) knowing that :
- SC will have more than a hundred items,
- delivery time and price (for example) must be checked in MDM, being the master data reference
- materials (or service) to order are received by requester via a flat file without any information about prices, so i cannot upload my flat file directly into SRM because file missing data must come from MDM.
With this process, user should have only to transfer items automatically selected.
Could you please share your advises ?
We use SAP MDM 5.5.
Regards.
Laurent.

Hello Masa,
Masayuki Sekihara wrote:
A vendor look at buyer stock information like VMI and fill stock weekly base. So the vendor sends material number and quantity information as flat file to buyer. Buyer should create SC from flat file and price information should fetch from catalog.
Yes, your are correct: example you gave corresponds to process for my SC uploading.

MDM catalog integration with SRM 7.0

Hi all,
We will be upgrading from SRM 5.0 to SRM 7.0
We currently have CCM .....Few questins on catalog enablement for us with SRM 7:
1.With SRM 7,0,can we use CCM oor MDM is the only option???
2.Is it better to have MDM as a seperate server and enable SRM MDM catalog content?
3.We have 2 punch out catalogs for 2 vendors.How to enable the punch out catalog links in SRM 7.0???What is the path for IMG config??
4. We have around 20 internal supplier catalogs .Now should we upload few of the supplier catalogs and then upload rest or can we upload all the suuplier catalogs at once through IMPORT MANAGER in MDM ???What are therestrictions in terms of the no of catalogs or catalog data that can be improted and mapped ???
5.What are additional features in SRM MDM 3.0 catalog in contrast to CCM??
6.The backend master data such as Supplier/Porg etc.....how is that synchronised from SRM to SRM MDM catalog???Is it through some scheduled programs???
7.What is the use of PI/XI in enabling SRM MDM catalog??Why is it mandatory??
8. What are the allowed file types for cataog data upload in MDM???Like it was CSV in CCM...
9. Where can I find some sample catalog files for test upload?
10.What are the lastest SP for MDM available for integration with SRM 7.0??
11. after price changes from supplier(thru negotiation),are these price changes to be updated manually for indiavidual items/products through MDM data manager or is there any way to automate this delta update for price in MDM???
12.Also maintaining catalog data in MDM for SRM procurement will be a seprate actibity just like maintaing catalog in CCM??
I have gone through the help links but wud like ansers to above ques based on experiences of the forum members...Please provide inputs to my above queries if anybody has worked on MDM catalog integration with SRM 7.0....
Thanks for your time.

HI,
1.With SRM 7,0,can we use CCM oor MDM is the only option???
   You can use any catalogs which support SAP OCI interface.
2.Is it better to have MDM as a seperate server and enable SRM MDM catalog content?
   MDM Server(contents) and AS Java(for UI) are required. Please check the installation guide.
3.We have 2 punch out catalogs for 2 vendors.How to enable the punch out catalog links in SRM 7.0???What is the path for IMG config??
   Same as SRM 5.0. Define External Web Services.
4. We have around 20 internal supplier catalogs .Now should we upload few of the supplier catalogs and then upload rest or can we upload all the suuplier catalogs at once through IMPORT MANAGER in MDM ???What are therestrictions in terms of the no of catalogs or catalog data that can be improted and mapped ???
Yes. You can use Import Manager. No issues.
6.The backend master data such as Supplier/Porg etc.....how is that synchronised from SRM to SRM MDM catalog???Is it through some scheduled programs???
MDM Extractor is available.
7.What is the use of PI/XI in enabling SRM MDM catalog??Why is it mandatory??
Mainly for contents mapping.
8. What are the allowed file types for cataog data upload in MDM???Like it was CSV in CCM...
Any. Even for DB interface is also supported. You see all options when you run import manager.
9. Where can I find some sample catalog files for test upload?
Sample repository definition is delivered. You can manually create 1 entry by Data Manager.
10.What are the lastest SP for MDM available for integration with SRM 7.0??
You can find it SAP Service Marketplace. http://service.sap.com/swdc
11. after price changes from supplier(thru negotiation),are these price changes to be updated manually for indiavidual items/products through MDM data manager or is there any way to automate this delta update for price in MDM???
You can use contract and contract items are transfered to Catalog.
12.Also maintaining catalog data in MDM for SRM procurement will be a seprate actibity just like maintaing catalog in CCM??
Yes. Catalog is just Catalog.

Masa

I guess, MQ series will supply messages in a queue/topic. These messages will have to be imported into MDM as XML files. Similarly to send XML files to MQ series, u will need a middleware with a MQ series adaptor.

SRM-MDM Catalog - XI Scenario

Hi,
I am working on SRM-MDM Catlog 1.0 integration with XI.
I have to configure scenarios in XI for:
1) Upload of Supplier catalog via Server File System to SAP MDM catalog. for example in XML Format.
2) Replication of Product and COntract data.
We have to use SRM_MDM_CATALOG scenario contained within XI Content uploaded for SRM_MDM.
=>I already have uploaded the XI Integration Content in Integration repository (SRM_MDM_CATALOG).
=>I already have SRM-MDM 1.0 catalog Configuration guide, But it doesnot detail much about scenario(components involved in Integration Repository and Integration Directory)
Do anyone have some document which details about scenario or any help material regarding the same/or if some expert can Guide/Brief me on the scenario.
Thanks and Regards,
Vijay Raheja

How to use the Masks in SRM-MDM catalog?

Hi Expert,
We are at SRM-MDM catalog 3.0.
There have two types of SRM contracts were transferd to one MDM catalog repository, and we config two different number range for these contract types. We will creat two web services in SRM IMG, only the same number ramge of the contracts could diaplay in one web service.
As this requirement, may be the MDM function Masks could be a solution I think. But when I try to separate the contracts with two masks in MDM Data Manager, I have no idea that how could I set the key filter with the contract number fields.
Could every expert tell me how could i set the Masks as this situation?

Hi
Have you assigned the masks created in data manager to some role in Console(Console-Roles TableRole1-Table and fields tabMask--add Mask 1 say)
Once the mask is assigned to the role then only the role can see records pertaining to that mask else it can see all the records in the repository.

SRM product category contract using MDM retrurns contract with item 0

We are using SRM 5 with MDM catalog 7.1 using Ext classic scenario.
We've created more than 1 SRM contract for the same product category in SRM, eg. 2 contracts both for prod category STATIONERY with 2 different vendors (eg. vendor 1213, contract 44000330 item 1 and vendor 2456 contract 44000999 item 1). In the MDM catalog we reference 1 of these contracts/items, eg vendor 1213, contract 44000330 item 1.
When we select this item from MDM catalog it pulls in the vendor and the contract number, eg vendor 1213, contract 44000330, but the contract item is shown as item 0 (contract 44000330 / 0).
If however, we have only one contract for a product category, eg. TRAINING and we enter this contract/item in MDM, when we select that item from the catalog it copies the vendor and the contract along with the correct contract item number, eg. contract 44000661 / 1.
Any ideas why it is doing this? Cannot find any SAP notes or other postings on SDN with this problem.
Thanks
Neil

Thanks.
The issue is when we have more than one contract for the same product category. Both or only one of those contracts might be assigned to items in the MDM catalog. The catalog has the correct contract, AND the correct item number against the catalog item.eg. contract 123456 / item 1
If there is only one contract then there is no problem and the correct contract AND item number is copied back into the shopping cart, eg. 123456 / 1. Only when there is more than one contract for the product category does MDM pass back contract item 0 eg. 123456 / 0
We're not loading via XI. We're loading from a spreadsheet.
Any more ideas?
Thanks
