Service entry sheet in Extended classic

Question

Dear all,
I would like to check with you, what possibilities does the extended classic scenario give us for GR of services?
Currently we have limit POs for transportation services and we would like to know, how the confirmation of monthly transportation services can be managed via SRM (as it not always has to be the whole amount of PO).
And is there any way how the suppliers can do it themselves (without activating SUS) please?
Is there any "safe" way how to give them access?
Wish you a nice day and thank you in advance for your help,
Eva

Hi. SUS and the supplier workplace are 2 different things.
SUS is supplier self service, and is where the supplier creates sales orders, ASN's, sales invoices and so on on your system. They basically use it as their own sales system.
The supplier portal is the supplier logging on to your SRM system as a user effectively and doing confirmations or entering invoices or whatever.
You could even just give the supplier a log on to your SRM system as a normal user and give them the central receipt role and use the BADI BBP_WF_LIST to restrict the list to only those POs relevant to that supplier if you did not want to set up the supplier portal.
However, if you want to upload them have a look at function BBP_PD_CONF_CREATE.
