Shopping cart Purchasing group determination

Hi All,
I have created Org structure like this
Backend pur.organsiation> purchasing group(Back end)>buyer1
department1-->user1
Buyer1 is responsible for department1
When user1 is creating shopping cart , I found in shopping cart purchasing group field is not showing.
Later I have created Local pur org and Local Purchasing group and Buyer4 assigned to it.
When I create a SC , now purchasing group field is showing with only one buyer i.e Buyer4.
we are on SRM 7 EHP1 and Extended classic scenario.
Is this standard behaviour that SC only shows Purchasing groups of local Purchase org.
Thanks
Abdul Raheem

Hi Nikhil,
I can see buyers for local purchasing group only, not the Back end purchasing group buyers.
For back end purchasing group I have kept in function tab a check box as purchasing group, and purchasing group number refering to back end system

    Hi
    product category are directly related to purchase group. depends upon the settings in the organisation structure , the system determines which purchase group is responsible for procuring this product category.
    so back track your product category and purchase group link and this purchase group is made a link with purchase organisation. since product category responsiblity is a mandatory in srm.
    Can you update here . where your user was positioned in org structure?
    hope that you made a link between purch organ with purchase group?
    po1
      --> pg1
    and moreover check following settings. are you try to procure via describe (spl request)?
    Purchase group - responsibilty tab what are the product category you mentioned?
    have you maintain Organisation responsibility under the responsibility tab?.
    still you find difficulty ?

  • Purchasing group determination in Shopping cart

    Hi All,
    when I am creating Shopping cart and choose Free Text  Describe what you want  and then I find that Purchasing group filed at item data tab is not available.
    But when I am selecting select goods/service and choose Product Id then shopping cart  is determining back end purchasing group and purchasing group field is shown at Item data tab.
    why SC is not showing Purchasing group field for free text items.
    Can any one has this similar issue in your system.
    I am on SRM7.01 Extended classic scenario.
    Abdul Raheem

    Hi Nikhil,
    If I choose the one material for the same product category in SC , it is picking back end purchasing group.
    But If i am choosing free text item and selects the same product category , Purchasing group field, it self is not showing in SC.
    I wonder, if I create a Local purchase group, and create a  free Text SC for the same product categoy, it is picking local Purchaing group.

  • Purchasing group determination

    Hello,
    We are using the extended classic scenario but we need to activate the classic scenario in the badi BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI because we want to create reservation in R/3.
    Now we have a problem with the purchasing group in the shopping cart, the system always determine the purc gr from R/3.
    We need to obtain the purch grup from R/3 in case the system creates a reservation and in other case (no reservation) from SRM.
    We have tried to modify it in the badi BBP_PGRP_FIND but this is not possible because the creation of reservation depends of the request quantity. Also we try to change it on BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI but we get sometimes an error message about the purchasing organization differs from target system
    Thanks in advance, Juan Manuel

    Hello Juan
    BBP_OM_DETERMINE_RESP_PGRP this is std fm determines purchase grp upon responsible product category.
    BBP_PGRP_ASSIGN_BADI - helps or BBP_PGRP_FIND to determine reponsible purchase group in a sc.
    but this badi controls follow on documents need to  created
    bbp_target_objtype  i.e overriding the 'Define Objects in Backend System (Purch. Reqs, Reservations, Purch. Orders)' i believe you must do with this target badi. correct me i were wrong.

  • Buyer of shopping cart, purchase order and contract

    Hi
    I wanted to ask about buyers. Are buyers usually a purchasing group/organisation? I am not sure if my thinking is right but wouldn't a buyer of a shopping cart and purchase order be the same. And a buyer of a contract would or can be different to the shopping cart because a contract is a source of supply and is probably linked to many purchasing groups/organizations.
    Is this reasoning right? Buyers are different to approvers too isn't it? Please could someone explain this to me?
    Kind regards

    Hi Deepa,
    Are buyers usually a purchasing group/organisation?
    Ideally each buyer should ahve a unique purchasing group. In thsi case we can say that each buyer is a purchasing group. However, in some companies, its a possiblity of sharing a purchasing group. In that case multiple buyer users will be assigned to purchasing groups in the SRM organizational structure.
    buyer of a shopping cart and purchase order be the same.
    Normally, if a PO is created w.r.t. SC, the purchasing group is copied. So its the same. However we can change the purchasing groups in sourcing cockpit using workload reassignment option or direcly in the PO/contract document.
    So we can say that its necessary to have PO/contract purchasing group same as that in SC.

    The point you're talking about is my issue. What does  determine the Shopping Cart timeout?
    Is it the Session Timeout? Or is there also a special value for the shopping cart.

  • Shopping cart, Purchase Order

    Hi all
    In a classic Secnario:
    I created shopping cart. I approved as manager when it was waiting for approval. But when I come back, it is showing only approved. Since after approval it should create Purchase Requestion/ Purchase Order.
    Any light will be helpful.

    hi,
    Goto trascn CHECK STATUS and go in tht item details.There click  on the FOLLOW ON DOCUMENTS link.If the PO is created,you will find it in the graphical display the details about the PO (follow on document) which is created in the R/3 backend.Also see if the job/program "CLEAN_REQREQ_UP " is running because of which the status is updated in SRM once the PO is created in the R/3 system.

  • How to determine the purchasing group using BADI BBP_PGRP_FIND

    Hello Friends
    We use SRM Server 5.5 (Classic scenario).
    As you know that, purchasing group has the responsible product categories in PPOMA_BBP, when user creates the shopping cart to determine the purchasing group. 
    In our case, we should determine the purchasing group using other criteria.
    MM side is OK to determine the purchasing group using specific criteria.
    Because Material Master has the purch. Group information. 
    In case of SRM, we should develop the logic using BBP_PGRP_FIND BADI.
    But I’m not sure how to use this badi.
    We want to determine the purchasing group based on the following logic.
    If described shopping cart without product ID
    Do Standard purchasing group determination logic.
    Else
    Assign the purch group from MARC- EKGRP (Purchasing Group)
    Is it possible to determine above the logic?
    If yes, Could you give me some information?
    Thank you,
    Best regards,
    SH

    Thank you for your answer.
    I found the way to develop the our logic using BADI: bbp_pgrp_find.
    But I’m not sure the following logic is correct.
    To differentiate described req. or product id req, We check the E_ITEM – PRODUCT using BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL.
    IF E_ITEM – PRODUCT is blank, Read the category ID to find the purchasing group.
    To find the purch. Group, we can use FM:  BBP_OM_DETERMINE_RESP_PGRP.
    Import parameter: IS_RESP_ITEM_DATA – Category _ID
    Export parameter: ES_PURCH_DATA
    ELSE
    CALL the customer function to read the R/3 purchasing group from MARC- EKGRP
    Search the HRT5500-TABNR using purchasing group from R/3.
    Search the HRP5500 – OBJID using HRT5500-TABNR
    Call the FM:  BBP_OM_DETERMINE_RESP_PGRP
    Import parameter: IS_RESP_ITEM_DATA – PROC_GROUP – OBJID
    Export parameter: ES_PURCH_DATA
    Thank you

  • Grouping of Shopping Carts using the report  BBP_SC_TRANSFER_GROUPED

    Hi Experts,
    I am a new SRM consultant and have been asked to investigate an issue regarding grouping of Shopping Carts using the report  BBP_SC_TRANSFER_GROUPED.
    The wanted scenario:
    For one specific vendor we wish to pool/group request coming from various shopping carts into one PO e.g. once a day. The shopping carts for that vendor can be destinguished by one specific product category.
    We are on classic scenario hence the PO will be created in our ECC system.                                                                               
    Settings we have done to accomplish what we want:
    1. We have set up the transfer for grouping on the specific product category in the sourcing area in the IMG structure
    2. We have run the report BBP_SC_TRANSFER_GROUPED (grouping takes place according to the product category)
    This approach works, the shopping carts gets grouped into one PO in ECC. however the line items from the Shopping Carts are mixed in the PO eg SC1: Item A, Item B, Item C, Item D SC2: Item 1, Item 2, Item 3, Item 4 PO (Current result) Item A, Item 1, Item B, Item 2, Item C, Item 3, Item D, Item 4.
    This seems quite strange, as there are no logic reason for this split. It would be understandable if it was a matter of delivery dates of the goods, but they are not in any order i.e. first coming delivery date first.
    Does anyone know how to correct this or can anyone clarify why this sequence mix happens?
    For me it seems like a program errror.
    Hope you can help me solve this issues
    Cheers Christian

    Hi,
    In SRM -Product categories = Purchasing group in SAP R/3.
    During the transfer of P.R   from R/3 you have enter the Purchasing group in R/3.
    In SRM in the PPOMA_BBP in the extended attribute you can enter the exact product categories
    or else enter * in the product categoies and the backend logical system
    in SPRO --define objects in backend system --- in this enter the purchasing group and category Id
    check your default settings in the SRM web browser

  • Can't access account, shopping cart. Can't purchase or access downloads!!

    This has been going on since Jan 12 1000 Eastern Standard time.
    I can tell from the other discussions that I'm not the only one.
    I can access the store, browse the different sections (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc), I can't listen to sample clips of music.
    But when ever I try to access my account, view shopping cart, purchases media, or check for downloads I get the striped bar & the notice "Accessing iTunes Store". But that's it, the bar just keeps cycling for minutes on end without connecting.
    Back on Jan 12th I got on error message stating that I was almost out of memory. But I have nearly 40GB free on my Laptop HD and on my external HD (where my library is located) I have a spare 260GB. At the time, no other applications were running so it couldn't have been the RAM load.
    Anyone else having similar problems connecting? This is getting unbelievably frustrating. I've been an iTunes customer for nearly two years with almost no problems. Do they realize that with this problem in place they're effectively losing a customer by shutting me out?

    I got on to ask the same question, in my particular situation, I have been unable for three weeks to choose a song in the iTunes store and send it to my Shopping Cart. The response, which didn't have a number was, "The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." Having been stopped by this note for three weeks has been quite frustrating. After reading the string, I thought I was going to have to dump a lot of my Shopping Cart (that I use like a Wish List).
    Now my Shopping Cart seems to be finally unstuck. This is what I had to do, and it may not work for everybody. I went to the Shopping Cart (after taking screen shots of it in the event I had to fully dump it) and purchased a couple of songs stored there. I also deleted a couple of selections that were apparently no longer available. Then I went back to the iTunes Store, went to the song I've been wanting to send to the Shopping Cart for three weeks, clicked on it and this time, it went to the Shopping Cart without seeing the "y'all come back later" roadblock. I quickly purchased it too.
    I don't know if this is a permanent fix, or if I'll have to try it again next time it gets stuck, but maybe it will work for you.

  • Purchasing group sequence and defaults

    Folks
    We are in SRM 50 and was wondering if anyone has tinkered with the sequence of purchasing groups for a buyer, while creating a shopping cart ? If so, how?
    To explain, when the buyer logs in and he/she is responsible for say 4 purchasing groups, the system seems to be sorting purchasing groups based on the organization ID and it assigns the first purchasing group as default (It used to be the last one in the order in EBP 30, before we upgraded). Even this has exceptions at times. How is the sort sequence of the purchasing group determined/controlled?
    Any insights would be appreciated.
    Suresh

    Hi
    Welcome to the world of SRM. )
    Actually, it depends on the Organizational chart maintained in the SRM system using PPOMA_BBP transaction. For each company code in SRM, there will be at least one Puchase organization assigned to it, which in turn might be linked with several Purchase groups. (this is what you have maintained in PPOMA_BBP , inside the Extended Attributes section of the main root node of the Organization )
    - Well it depends .. sometimes, you might maintain the attributes at every level of the org units.
    Anyways, I will try to help you out on the Defaulting Purchasing group logic as well.
    Well, until, SRM 4.0, we have noticed, purchasing groups based on the organization ID and it assigns the first purchasing group as default. It is sure.
    After SRM 5.0, this purchasing group defaulting is changed to last, as in your case... ( I am not sure.. about this), might be some other reason can be behind this...
    Which SRM scenario are you using ?
    <u>You can control the Puchasing group by implementing the BADIs.. The Standard SRM system provides various BADIs to get this job done.</u>
    Please do read the standard documentation available with them, before writing any code for the custom BADI Implementations.
    Refer to the following Business Add-Ins (BADIs) in SE18 Transaction.
    <b>BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI
    BBP_PGRP_FIND_BADI</b>
    <u>In BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, you can change the already defined Purchasing group, based on your business logic and requirements.</u>
    In BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI, you can issue customer error messages incase the Purchasing group selected does not match with the company code, etc.. as per you business requirements.
    Similarly, In BBP_PGRP_FIND_BADI, you can make your changes accordingly.
    Let me know incase you face any issues.

  • Backend Info Record data transfered to Shopping Cart

    We are using extended classic scenario, SRM 4.0 SRM Server 5.0.
    In our backend R/3 system we have standard info records created with material #, vendor, price UOM etc.  I would like to show the vendor, price, uom (from the backend info record)in the Source of Supply section of a shopping cart after entering the material # (product # in SRM language).  Also transfer the price and vendor to the shopping cart if desired.  Has anyone found a BADI or some other method to do this???
    We do not use valuated materials so EPP_Get_Backend prices does not work for us.

  • PO releaser in R3 must be shopping cart approver

    Greetings,
    We have a requirement to configure R3 PO release strategies such that the final budget/finacial approver of the originating shopping cart should be determined as the PO releaser.
    We are using SRM 4 and ERP 2004 backend.
    How can we achieve this?
    Do we need to store and transfer the shopping cart approver login ID in the backend PO in R3?
    In terms of the required R3 release strategy configuration, how would we config the release group so that the shopping cart approver is determined.
    I realise that this question is largely MM, but because PO releaser originates from SRM, i thought its best raised in this forum.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    You can send what you want to R/3.
    But ID & eMail address is not enough, you need the user (SU01) to loggin R/3 and release the PO in R/3.
    That means you need to create SRM requestors also in R/3 to use them in PO release strategy
    (usually requestors don't have a user account in R/3).

  • Change shopping cart

    Hello all, I am confusing in a point, I have this issue:
    I have a shopping cart with 1 item and 2 approvers
    First approver reject the SC
    Creator of shopping cart can change this shopping cart after the approver reject it?
    When the shopping cart can be changed?
    Thanks
    Rosa

    Hi ,
    Whether the SC requester can change the SC or not is determined by the parameter "BBP_WFL_SECURITY" under the personlization tab in trascn PFCG for the SC creator role(e.g. EMPLOYEE role).
    When the Approver rejects the SC,the witem is sent back to the requester informing him that the Sc has been rejected by the 1st approver and if he has the authorisation(based on the parameter BBP_WFL_SECURITY) to chnage the SC,he can change the SC and resend it for approval.Then the Sc will be again sent to the 1st approver for approval and the cycle continues.
    To change the SC,the SC creator will be able to see a CHANGE button on the Screen to make the changes and resend the SC for approval.in order to get the change button, the parameter setting level should be atleast "Low".
    See the foll details on security level:
    Security Levels
    Each user in the SRM system can have a Security Level.
    The Security Level predicts how a workflow will react when a change has been made to a business docuement. I.e. A Shopping Cart, Purchase Order etc.
    There are 5 different values for the BBP_WFL_SECURITY and there are several ways to check the security levels.
    Checking the Security Level of a user
    Here I discuss two ways to check the BBP_WFL_SECURITY of a user. The first is by using the Business Object Builder and the second is by using User Maintenance.
    1) Business Object Builder: SWO1
    Logon with a user who is authorized to access transaction SWO1 Business Object Builder.
    Enter the Business Object for a SRM User BUS4101 and press 'Test'. Now press the 'Instance' button to give us the ability to examine the user. Enter the user name of the user and execute. Now we can see many of the attributes that are associated with this user. The Security level of the user is available here. The value is the BBP_WFL_SECURITY for the instanced user.
    2) User Maintenance: SU01
    Logon with a user who is authorized to access transaction SU01 User Maintenance.
    Enter the 'Username' of the user. You can now see much of the data that is associated with this user. To check the users security level we must navigate to the 'Personalization Tab'. Now Double-Click on the object key 'BBP_WFL_SECURITY'.
    Security Level Definition
    As mentioned above, there are 5 different Security Level values that can be assigned to a user, each of which will have a different effect on a workflow when the associated business document has been changed. These range from 0-4 and they can be maintained for each user in User Maintenance (SU01 -> Personalization Tab -> BBP_WFL_SECURITY), provided the user you have logged on with has the ability to make changes to these settings.
    Please note that if the customer has an active implementation of the BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI, it is possible that the BBP_WFL_SECURITY settings in the database can be overridden.
    BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 4 High
    If the user who changes the purchasing document has their security level set to 'High', the workflow will never restart after the change has taken place. No restart flag has been set in BBP_PDH_WFL_CHECK_RESTART. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
    BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 3 Medium
    If the user who changes the purchasing document has their security level set to 'Medium', the workflow will re-evaluate the starting conditions of the workflow. If the change made to the document means that the starting conditions of a new workflow are satisfied, then the new workflow will be called and replace the old workflow. The existing workflow will be terminated.
    If, however, no other starting conditions have been satisfied, then the workflow will continue. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
    BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 2 Low
    If the user who changes the purchasing document has their security level set to 'Low', then the workflow will always restart after the change has been made. The restart flag in function module BBP_PDH_WFL_CHECK_RESTART will be flagged. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
    BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 1 None
    Here the user does not have a security setting and changes to the document at not possible. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
    BBP_WFL_SECURITY = 0 Not Defined
    When the setting is '0', however, the value is INITIAL. Again, as mentioned above, the BADI can override these settings.
    It is wise to note that depending on the business document there are differences in how changes will effect a workflow! Please see the function module BBP_PDH_WFL_CHECK_RESTART to see these exactly!
    Workflow Security BADI
    Occasionally, the business requirements of a company necessitate the ability to override the workflow security settings of users. In this case, function module BBP_PDH_WFL_SECLEVEL_GET checks if an active implementation of the BAdI BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI exists. If it does, then the logic contained in the BAdI will determine what security level is required. If not, then the value will be taken from the database as normal. These can be used specifically to determine whether a purchasing document can be changed during approval and also to determine how the workflow should behave when a change to the purchasing document has taken place.
