Service procurement & implementation scenario in SRM 7.0
Hi Guys,
I would like to know if in SRM 7.0 the new Service Procurement External Staffing scenario would work in the Extended classic scenario implementation? Or is this only supported in standalone?
Do we have to custom build the document exchange between ECC - SRM - SUS for confirmation and invoice documents like in SRM 5.0. I am searching for a possibilty to let the service agents themselfs fill in the confirmation with the service entry sheet.
If the extended classic scenario is supported then we are quickly done. Other possibility is to let an existing web application (to capture time sheets) generate a XML confirmation message and send this message to EBP via XI. This way the hours can also be captured. Invoicing can then by handled e.g. by ERS. What do you think?
Thx.
Skander
Hi Muthu,
Thx for your response, but these blogs do not provide an anwser to my question. I have read the release documentation of SRM 7.0, but even then I still have the above question.
Will this business scenario work in combination witht the extended classsic scenario (and how does SUS fits in this picture)?
Kind Regards,
Skander

Central Confirmation in Self-Service Procurement Classic Scenario
Hi all,
can you confirm that we can not use the Central Goods Confirmation where we are using the Self-Service Procurement Classic Scenario? Just to be sure!
We are working in SRM 7.0 SP4 and ECC 6.0.
Thanks!

Service Procurement Classic - SRM 7.0
Hi,
I referred the service procurement classic scenario in SRM 7.0 (help.sap.com) but i am still not very clear about the business process.
I understand that this process is used to transfer service PR from ERP system to SRM system for processing.
What is the meaning of " structured service requirements" in ERP ?
Is there any where else i can get more info about this business process and the configuration steps necessary.
Please help

VigneshWhat is the meaning of " structured service requirements" in ERP ?
Is there any where else i can get more info about this business process and the configuration steps necessary.
"Structured" is synonimous with "Hierarchical" in this context. Structured service requirements usually indicate something like Bill of Services that consist of layered services with parent-child relationship. For more information, you could take a look at the release notes for both SRM7.0 and ERP 6.0 Enhancement Package 4, Chapter 21: Procurement and Logistics Execution (page 31 - LOG_MM_P2PSE_1: Service Procurement Enhancements). -
Any Badi required for service procurement scenario?
Dear Guru's
I am configuring the service procurement classic scenario in SRM 7.01. Our requirement is as below:
If the service requisition has backend contract available as a source of supply, it will create a purchase order in the backend ERP system.
However, when it comes to contract, service hierarchy is supported in the srm contract as well. So, unlike srm 7.0, we can create follow-on contract with service hierarchy both in SAP SRM system and backend ERP system. How the system will decide whether to create the contract in the backend system or local SRM system?
If I want to create local contract only from the purchase requisitions with service hierarchy, do I need to take help of the BAdi 'BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS'? Or i Need the BAdi only if I need to create the contract directly in the backend system.
Secondly, Will the local contract be available as a source of supply in the sourcing cockpit or only the backend contract will be available as a sourcing?
Thanks in advance,
Ranjan
Ranjan SutradharDear Ricardo,
Thanks for the confirmation. Till SRM 7.0, service hierarchy was not supported in the contract document in SRM. The system behaviour is to create contract with service hierarchy in the backend system. In case of multiple backend systems, we need to use the BAdi 'BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS'.
Since we are in the SRM 7.01 where the central contract supports service hierarchy, we are proceeding with the approach suggested by you.
Thanks and regards,

Invoice in Self Service Procurement
Hi,
When we work with Plan Driven (Procurement of Direct Materials) as our business scenario, The suppliers can create an Invoice directly in SUS, then the invoice is automatically released to SAP R3, but what happend when the PO is created directly in SRM EBP (Procurement of Services and Indirect Materials, scenario SUS-EBP or Self Service procurement)????
How the invoice works in Self Service (SUS EBP) scenario????
Is there a document about it????
Thanks.

Enhancement package for service procurement Log-MM-P2PSE- not available
Dear Experts,
'Enable enhancement package for service procurement' - Log_MM_P2PSE_1 - Procurement - SRM Integration is available for activation from MM system (ECC 6.0 Enhapk 4.) for activation of the service procurement classic scenario.
However, I have downloaded a new installation (ECC 6.0 Enhancement pk 4) from service market place. The package is not available here. Why?
Do we need to install it do something extra?
Regards,
RanjanHello Nathalie,
If you look at the SRM-MDM Catalog scenarios described in the following page, it seems that you don't need SRM for some of them. :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/en/45/ddd04f8c6e2e97e10000000a155369/content.htm
This is my understanding. But if someone has tries it out it would be nice to hear about it.

Implementation costs SuS-SRM scenario (service procurement/web-based)
Hi out there,
I am currently trying to rough-estimate the implemantation costs for a SuS-SRM scenario (service procurement - supplier enablement/web-based) with all the components it requires:
software-wise: SRM with SuS and XI would be needed
Hardware-wise ? (rough estimate)
Consulting fees ? (rough estimate)
Current facts: SAP Enterprise 4.7 in use
Or maybe somebody can refer me to a SAP price list. I have searched high and low with no positive result. A rough estimate would be good enough.

AndreDear Emmanuel,
Yes you will not find the Interface mapping after the scenario generation. These SRM scenarios are Proxy communication scenarios and mainly involved with no change in structures.
Regarding the Communication channels, yes you have to create the channels first, before the scenario generation.
The SRM scenarios are mainly used with proxy communication and you have to create channels with adapter type XI.
In your case - the scenario is - Service_Procurement_SupplierEnablement . you have to create two receiver communication channels. this scenario mainly exchanges data between EBP and SUS. the integration happens with the below interfaces-
InvoiceConfirmation_Out, InvoiceRequest_Out, PurchaseOrderRequest_Out, ServiceAcknowledgementConfirmation_Out, SupplierPortalTradingPartner_CreateOrChange_Out , InvoiceRequest_Out etc.

Service Procurement PO Issue in MM-SUS Scenario (SRM 7.0)
Hi Gurus,
We are facing issue while creating the service purchase order in MM-SUS scenario.
Creating the PO in ECC with Account Category "K" and Item Category "D". (PO should transfer through XML as in XI config v hv used proxies for both ECC & SRM,when creating PO xml not generated in SXI_MONITOR. what is the config required in ECC to generate the XML)
What is the Process of service entry sheet.
Regards
SatishNote 868192 - Consulting solution: MM-SRV-SUS service procurement
A service entry in SUS is transferred to the R/3 system or ERP system using an IDoc after you submit the entry screen. Service entry sheets are created there and they are then available for release. You can perform the service entry in a number of ways:
Service entry of planned services: you can confirm planned services in the service entry in SUS. An overdelivery may occur if quantities are still open.
Service entry using time recording: planned services, for which a time recording is useful, can be split up. Time recording by the hour or by the day is possible.
Service entry for limits: You can use the free-text entry of new items and also the OCI-enabled catalogs to implement limits.

Question on Self Service Procurement Scenario?
Hai friends
Self Service Procurement is used for automatic generation of PR and shop on Behalf of.
So how is SSP possible in creation of PR in extended Classic Scenario
Is SSP possible in Classic Scenario only? If its possible in all scenario then what is the use of Self Service Procurement
Regards
krishnaHi Krishna,
SSP (Self Service Procurement) scenario is possible in both, Classic and Extended Classic Scenario's. In classic scenario, the follow-on doc. say PO created w.r..t SC will be created in backend system and in case of Extended Classic Scenario, the PO will be created in SRM and a copy will be posted to backend.
PR can be replicated from backend to SRM system in both the cases. It falls under Plan-driven procurement business scenario.
In extended classic scenario, if you want to replicate the PR to SRM, it can be listed in sourcing cockpit as an external requirement and ca be processed further to follow bidding process in SRM.
In classic scenario, you can configure to create a SC in SRM and transfer it to the backend system to create PR / PO as a follow-on document.
I hope this answers to your question.

Prashant

Plant Driven Procurement scenario in SRM Throgh XI.
We are doing plant driven procurement scenario in SRM through XI7.0
(ECC 6.0 (MM)- XI7.0 -SRM5.0 SUS)
1.we downloaded XI Content for SRM Server 5.5 SP 12.But we are unable
to find out SAP ECC 6.0 Software component Versions or Product version
in SAP XI 7.0 SLD.
Please, Suggest the solution to solve this problem.Hi Prateek,
I am doing Plant driven procurement service enablement scenario by using XI 7.0, for this,
we are integrating MM & SRM SUS Through XI 7.0 (MM -- XI-- SRM SUS).
For doing this Scenario,
1. Downloaded XI Content for SRM
2. Imported XI Content into the IR
3.After importing, Plan_Driven_Procurement_SupplierEnablement Scenario was enabled.
Here, MM side SWCV is R/3 4.6 is available by default. but in my case i need to change to ECC 6.0(bcoz,currently we r using ECC 6.0 version )
In SLD, there is no ECC 6.0 version.
So, how to solve this issue.
Thanks in Advance.

Service Procurement in Extended Classic Scenario
Hi,
We are planning to use SRM 7 EHP 1 with backend ECC 6 EHP 4. We are leaning toward the extended classic scenario. However we are a bit confused reading some documentation that saying Service Procurement classic can only be used in classic scenario.
What does this mean? To put this in more simple, can we have this scenario in extended classic deployment:
PDP:
1. We create PR with 2 items, each item have 3 sub-line services,
2. We push this PR to SRM
3. We create PO in SRM and it is copied to ECC.
4. PO will have 2 items, with each item have 3 sub-line services.
Self Service Procurement:
1. We create SC with 2 items, each items have 3 sub-line services,
2. We create PO in SRM and it is copied to ECC
3. PO will have 2 items, with each item have 3 sub-line services.
Really appreciate if someone can clarify this point.
Best regards,
JoshDear Josh,
For your scenarios below:
Self Service Procurement:
1. We create SC with 2 items, each items have 3 sub-line services,
2. We create PO in SRM and it is copied to ECC
3. PO will have 2 items, with each item have 3 sub-line services.
The shopping cart and PO in local SRM system does not support service hierarchy (Service subline) in the system.
PDP:
1. We create PR with 2 items, each item have 3 sub-line services,
2. We push this PR to SRM
3. We create PO in SRM and it is copied to ECC.
4. PO will have 2 items, with each item have 3 sub-line services.
Here also, the system will not create po in the local srm system. The local PO cannot support service hierarchy. The system by default create the purchase order in the backend system directly.
Thanks and regards,

Self service procurement and plan driven procurement in classic scenario
hai friends,
i have configured self service procurement and now i am configuring plan driven procurement in classic scenario.my doubt is suppose a shopping cart is created and placed in a sourcing application of the professional buyer.And assume he accomplished sourcing activity and created purchase order .Now purchase order is created locally or in the backed.i am using classic scenario ,now can u tell where the purchase order is located? if i want to place that particular purchase order in SRM it self what will i do? thanks in advance.Hi Chandra
before going to select Business scenario (self service, plan driven..etc), you must freeze the technical scenario. Depends upon your technical scenario, your PO will be created .
Where PO is created it is called leading system. It is SAP standard.
If you were selected Classic- Po created in R/3.- R/3 is a leading system .
if you were select ECS- > PO will created in SRM and Copy also will be created in R/3 system. In EBP only you can edit the PO not in r/3. here SRM is a Leading system.
regards
