Settings required for external vendor catalog

Hi Experts,
Please advise if i have external vedor catlog and want to use it for shopping carts. What config settings i need to do for it.
Regards,
Kamal

Hi,
You must define your catlog here in EBP
SRM server- > master data-> Define external web services .
You must give inbound parameters for the vendor catalog to access from ebp.
As well as this catalog definitions must be defined in CAT attribute in PPOMA_BBP.
Also please refere the OCI config document for further setting.
Cheers!!

What are the settings required for QM in procurement

Hi Team,
What are the settings required for QM in procurement. I have set indicator for QM in procurement in QM view in material master.
I am not clear about following fields to be maintained in QM view.
QM Control Key
Certificate type
Target QM system
Tech. delivery terms Indicator.
Please suggest me in which case to be used this fiels. Is it relivant to Quality Certificates.
Thanks

Hi,
All meaning are
QM Control Key :
If you activate the indicator for QM in procurement in the material master record at the client level, you must also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
Certificate type :
Certificate types applies to the Certificate processing in procurement & Certificate creation
Target QM system :
whether the vendor's verified QM system, according to vendor master record or quality info-record (for a combination of vendor/material) meets the requirements for QM systems as specified in the material master
- If you activate the indicator for QM in procurement in the material master record at the client level, you must also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement. If you want Procurment control then accordingly define Control Key.
- If you want Vendor's perticular certificate for Material then you have to define Certificate type.
Also, you have to maintain Material, Vendor's Info record at plant level.
Thanks,
JM

GR/IR Account - one for internal vendor and another for external vendors

Hi Experts,
Can I have two GR/IR accounts - one for internal vendors and another for external vendors? Please let me know.
Thank you.
with regards,
Muthu Ganapathy.

Hi Muthu,
GR/IR accounts are not dependent on Vendors, they are dependent on Materials, to be precise on Plant/Valclass.
You can post to 2 different GR/IR accounts if you set up 2 different classes. then it is possible.
For setting up the same. Go to T.code : OBYC, Transaction : WRX.
Here Setup different GR/IR accounts per val.class.
Letme know if you need further info

Settings required for including changes in data in a transport request.

Hi All,
I need the settings required for saving ths data changed in a database table into a customizing request.
Kindly let me know the steps involved in the process.
To elaborate:
I have a maintenance screen for a DB table.
Whenever a user creates/changes data to/from the DB table , using the maintenance screem, the data should be saved into a customizing TR.
Regards-
Harmeet Singh,

Hi there,
Any config change will be saved under a transport request TR. Also tables are of 2 types: Customizing table & application table.
Changes / new entry in a customized table are transportable. You will gte a TR when the customized table values are changed / new entry.
But application table entry / changes are non transportable. You willnot get a TR when saving the data.
To know it, go to SE11 --> give the table name --> display --> attributes --> Delivery class. Delivery class A is application table, C is customizing table.
Also some standard tables like MARA, VBAK are not allowed to maintain. If a table is allowed to be maintained, table maintaience allowed is checked in the above.

Sivanand

Production order usage for external vendors

Hi Guys,
I am working on a scenario where the company is orderiing to manufacture from external vendors involving different stages. There is no material sent to the vendor and the vendor manufactures the first stage and sends to next vendor, there are four stages involved.
We are planning to use production order for the purpose and 4 operations thorugh which 4 purchase orders will be sent to four vendors and services or materials will be posted. I am just thinking how the final GR for finished product will be posted to the inventory. The requirement is track the cost at each stage...
Please let me know of your thoughts on this...
Thanks and regards,
Sid

Hi
I dont think you will have any issues with the tracking of the cost and GR of the finished product.
You have 4 operations each resulting into a PO for different Vendors each component/service of the opertaion will be received against each PO that you might have issued and so will be the cost collected actual cost for each operation.
Final GR can be posted for the header material against the Production order. I would request you to complete a full scenario and review it with your FI/CO team for any issues. I dont think you will have any.
Please let us know if you need any more info
Thanks

1099's for external vendors

We have a set of external vendors that are NOT set up in SAP. Is there a way to create a 1099 form for these vendors using S_P00_07000134, but without setting them up as a vendor in SAP? Is there a user exit (or something) that could capture this non-SAP vendor information before it is sent to the smartform?

Hi Leslie,
I also had the same requirement like few tax amount for a particular vendor is present in SAP and the remaining entries are present in the legacy system and we are asked to combine both the tax amounts from the SAP and the legacy syatem and disply in the 1099 form and i solved it. I am giving you the steps i took to solve it.
1). Each SAP vendor (LIFNR) is linked with a legacy vendor(ALTKN) in table LFB1. Check for which SAP vendor your legacy vendor is linked.
2). Create a custom table which has the key fields as SAP_LIFNR, LEG_LIFNR, WITHT and two other fields WT_WITHCD and the amount field.
3). Now copy the Smartform which is used to the "Z" smartform. Inside which you can add the logic to display the legacy vendor details along with the Standard SAP vendor details.
and also change the configuration of the smartform to the transaction using spro as shown in the screen shot.

Suggestion on exposing ECC 6 Prod WebGUI for external vendors!

Hi,
Our requirement is provide access to few transactions of our Production ECC 6 (EhP4) to external vendors and currently there are no Portal business package for these transactions. Re-development of these transactions could take a long time because of the complexity involved.
What I would like to know is what is the general practice and recommended approach in such scenarios:
- Provide access to these transactions directly via ITS (WebGUI) using HTTPS protocol then by removing all toolbars and strict authorization roles assignment for the external users then secure it via Reverse Proxy using any Web Dispatcher?
- Or create Web Applications (using BSP or WD4A) for each transaction and provide access through external portal?
I would really like to know what's the best practice and recommended approach in such scenarios? And is exposing production ITS WebGUI as explained above safe?
Thanks and Regards,

Call a external vendor catalog - OCI In ECC using web dynpro

Hello Everyone,
We have a requirement to call a OCI External Catalog in ME51n Transaction in ECC, that is working fine.
Now we need to create a Web dynpro ABAP Application which performs the Task of ME51n Transaction along with OCI Integration.
So far i have create a small Web dynpro ABAP application to check does OCI Catalog can be integrated in ECC using web dynpro ABAP.
My Screen Consit of a single Button UI, on click of the button i am calling the External Catalog, from the catalog i select all the materials and click on submit finally we need to bring all the selected materials to get displayed ina table.
Half of the Development is done i.e i am able to call the catalog but not able to receive the selected materials.
following are the details-
1. I check in SRM first how the Ctalogs are been called, i found 2 Services responsible for the same in SICF transaction -
Inbound HLDR and Outbound HLDR which uses handler class as SAPSRM_CL_CH_WD_INBOUND_HDLR and SAPSRM_CL_CH_WD_OUTBOUND_HDL, so i copied the same classes into ECC and created the same SICF Service.
Contn. in next post

2.In my Web Dynpro ABAP application i have a Inbound plug in my window in the handler method of the inbound plug i fill a table lt_parameters of TYPE tihttpnvp, it has 2 columns name and value
In this table i fill following entries-
Name-CATALOG_URL
Value-https://XXXXXXXX.com/invoke/BVProcess.SAPOCI/processCatalogRequest
Name-USERNAME
Value-XXXXXXXX
Name-PASSWORD
Value-XXXXXXXX
NAME = 'HOOK_URL'.
VALUE = 'http:/XXXXX.hostederp.local:8000/sap/ZOTC_CAT/Zinbound_hdlr'."?TARGET_URL= {Appdress of the WDA Apllication}
NAME = 'OCI_VERSION'.
VALUE = '4.0'.
NAME = 'OPI_VERSION'.
VALUE = '1.0'.
NAME = 'returntarget'.
VALUE = _top
also in this inbound plug handler method i fill a lv_url variable of type string with-
lv_url = 'http://XXXXXX.hostederp.local:8000/sap/ZOTC_CAT/Zoutbound_hdlr?sap-client=100&sap-language=E'.
3. finally from the handler method of the inbound plug i call a Suspend plug p[assing the above two variables i.e
lt_parameters and lv_url.
wd_this->fire_zw_suspend_plg( url = lv_url i_parameter_tab = lt_parameters ).
4. Using above i cam able to call the catalog and select the materials.
5. Now if i Finally clcik on submit on the catalog it should return the materials to the WDA Application.
For WDA Application to accept the Materials i have created a resume plug in which i am using -
wdr_task=>server->request->get_form_fields( CHANGING fields = lt_fields ). to get all the selected materials into lt_fields.
6. But unfortunately i am unable to receive the selected materials in lt_fields.
I think i am missing something in Hook URL or some other parameter.
Please help, ur comments and suggestions are welcome.

Akash Rana

Export Table to flat file and upload to FTP server for external vendor

I have done some extensive searches on the forums and I think I have an idea but really need some help. Basically have a table that needs to be exported to a flat file and uploaded to a FTP server so that our vendor can get the data Monday-Saturday and automated by sysdate. This data is used to produce daily letters that go out to customers.
After doing some searching I came across the UTL_FILE package and reading more into this right now but I am not sure if it is what I should be using to create the file.
I am using TOAD right now and can see how to do it manually however really need the file to create itself and send automatically at 6 am Monday - Saturday with the date at the end of the file name making it a unique file for each day.
Thanks in advance for all of your help.

As Justin and others have mentioned I wrote [XUTL_FTP|http://www.chrispoole.co.uk/apps/xutlftp.htm] so you wont find it in the Oracle documentation. It's pure PL/SQL and uses UTL_TCP and implements an integrated PL/SQL FTP client / API. One of it's many overloaded procedures FTP's the contents of a refcursor straight to a FTP server of your choice, meaning no intervening file is required. Since it is pure PL/SQL, it is trivial to schedule using DBMS_JOB/DBMS_SCHEDULER.
Any questions just ask.

Hi,
Which BAPI can be used to post a "vendor invoice" ie.like a utility bill where there is no PO or GR ?
The few BAPI's that I have searched and obtained is:
1. BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE
2. BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST
Our exact requirement is to have a BAPI which can take the following fields as input:
GL Account
Cost Center
WBS element
Material No
Customer
Tax Code
Trade Partner
Customer group
And give the following data as response
Verification number in SAP
Payment status

Kindly help me to find the correct BAPI.
Greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks,
John

Hi,
When we use BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST for posting an invoice without a PO, we are facing major issues.
We have to input vendor account number and the amount. This should be entered in 'ACCOUNTPAYABLE'.
Even though there is the field 'VENDOR_NO' for entering the vendor number, there is no field for entering the amount !!.
Kindly help me to identify where I should input vendor amount as input (either in 'ACCOUNTPAYABLE' or elsewhere).
Also, I am entering GL account number in field 'GL_ACCOUNT' in the segment 'ACCOUNTGL'. But there is not field to enter the amount.
Kindly help me to identify where I should input GL account amount as input (either in 'ACCOUNTGL' or elsewhere).
Thanks,
John
