Sizing MDM-SRM scenario

Hi,
In MDM 7.1 how many hosts are actually needed to run a MDM-SRM scenario? Do you need all five (import server, syndication server, mdm server, layoutserver and dbms) or is it enough with one mdm server that hosts the whole MDM solution? And if so, does the SRM catalogue require a seperate server, or does it run on the same server as a regular EP server? Im feeling a bit confused in this whole MDM environment thing atm.. please help out

Hi Naim
For answer your question you should provide more information about your plans.
For example:
if you haven't plan to do import master data automatically- import server is not needed
if you haven't plan to do syndicate master data automatically - syndication server is not needed
if you haven't plan to do product catalog - layout server is not needed

SRM-MDM-XI scenario

Hi all,
I am trying to use the SRM-MDM-XI scenario. When i run the report BBP_CCM_Transfer_Catalog in SRM to transfer the product data to MDM, i get a success message.
The communication channel for product data transmission is ready.
However in the sxmb_moni of XI system i see the following error. :" Inbound interface found several times (for same sender and receiver) for the outbound interface".
Kindly help me resolve this error.
Thanks,
Nikhil

Hi Nikhil,
Check the scenario created in Integration directory also check if you are using same receiver interface for Multiple scenarios.

Material Replication from ERP to MDM (SRM-MDM Catalog)

Hi Experts,
I would like to replicate the material master from the ERP system into the MDM (SRM-MDM Catalog)?
I don't want to replicate the materials from ERP to SRM, and then from SRM to MDM.
1. Does ERP provide any transactions to achieve this ( like MECCM / MDM_CLNT_EXTR) ?
2. Is there a necessity to use the PI system in these communications? If so, what Integration Scenario I need to use in PI Enterprise Repository?
3. Any further changes to Materials in the ERP system should automatically replicate into the MDM system.
From SRM, I create SC with items from Materials in MDM.
Please let me know if you require more information.
Thanks
Kasee

Dear Krupa,
Thank you for your quick reply.
So we should consider the scenario where SRM is the central repository for the contracts, and all the changes done in SRM should be replicated to ERP.
In this scenario, do you know which steps should be done to allow contract replication from SRM to ERP? I already created a central contract in SRM but there is no message sent to PI.
Thanks in advance.

Andreia

Hello Praveen,
you can refer the threads for CRM-MDM integration as mentioned below:
Configure CRM with MDM !!!
Connecting MDM to CRM
Integration of SAP CRM with non-SAP-Systems
To integrate the SRM or CRM System with MDM, you might be need some middleware like XI/PI in between.
You can configure the MDM generic extractor to replicate the referance data (lookup table data, Transaction-MDMGX).please refer the thread as mentioned below:
Re: MDMGX Transaction in R3-XI-MDM Scenario
you can also use the standard transaction "MDM_CLNT_EXTR" to replicate the main table data fro SAP System to MDM.I am not sure that this will work for SRM or CRM System. I have used it in case of R3 System. you can refer the SAP NOTE-1035601, 836985 for this transaction.
Also can refer the threads as mentioned below on MDM_CLNT_EXTR:
Working of MDM_CLNT_EXTR transaction
MDM_CLNT_EXTR Configurations
Working of MDM_CLNT_EXTR transaction

R/3 u2013 XI u2013 MDM integration scenario - Standard import Maps problem

Hi Data Masters,
We are working on R/3 u2013 XI u2013 MDM integration scenario for Vendor Object. We have extracted main table Data using u201CMDM_CLNT_EXTRu201D program. Now while importing the data in MDM we want to use u201CStandard business content i.e. Standard Import Maps (Name u2013 cremdm - 03 u201D but this maps are not mapping all the fields. So do we need to extend this maps..??
OK. Second, To create own maps we are facing following problems,
1) In source section many fields are reflecting twice means in two segments i.e. LFA1 and ADRMAS like Name, City, Street, country etcu2026 whereas in Target section we have one field for the same so how to maps this fields.
2) In source, There are few fields like ADRNR which have values but in target we donot have any fields to map for the same, so how to handle thisu2026
Helpful answers will be rewarded,

Namespace problem in SRM scenario.

Hi Experts,
I am using the RFQ scenario on SRM (Proxy) to PI to RFC.
The scenario is standard SRM Scenario.
The problem is with namespace, coming from SRM Proxy is http://sap.com/xi/SRM/Sourcing/Global
using same message Type on PI, but XML namespace here in PI is different for this message, it is http://sap.com/xi/SAPGlobal/Global
As the namespaces are not matching, the message is in RED.
How I can solve this ?

Hi Vijaykumar,
Thanks for your reply.
But it is standard proxy structure, Is it fine to modify this ?
& it is proxy, so we have to regenerate it in SRM also.
is it fine ?

R/3 - Xi - MDM integration Scenario.

Hi experts,
We are working on R/3 XI MDM integration scenario for Customer master wherein requirement is to consolidate the u201CGeneral datau201D but at the same time we need to retain u201Csales area datau201D for each record as it is.
For example, In sap ECC system we have Master record (Which is duplicate) as mentioned below,
Id   Name           Sales Area.
1    Neethu      SA1
2    Neethu Joy     SA2
After merging two duplicate records general data we will have a single record in data manager. Further we want to link Sales Area Data to same consolidated record. Final picture in MDM data manager should look like this,
Id   Name           Sales Area.
1   Neethu      SA1; SA2
Can anyone suggest a solution? How we can u201Cappendu201D Sales area data to Consolidated General master data. How we can deal with u201CDelta Recordsu201D to achieve the same Output..??
Matter is most urgent...Points will be rewarded.
Cheers,
Rajesh Chavan

Hi Rajesh,
On merging two duplicate records, generally data merge as a single record in data manager.So i would suggest in this case
You have to change your Repository design and MAP. you can achieve this, Firstly For Sales Area you have to make this lookup field(Multi-Valued) in main table which will lookup to SubTable say SalesA for which Multi-Valued is YES.
Now come to Import Manager, Here during Map as you have
Id Name Sales Area.
1 Neethu SA1
2 Neethu Joy SA2
Map first Source Sales Area Field with Name(DF) when you select SalesA as your Current Destination Table then import Main table records as ususal here in which you also map Sales Area source field with Sales Area which is lookup field(Multi-Valued) in main table
IN Data Manager, During Merge Records when you select Sale Area field as SA1 in Merged Record for Id 1 then Right Click on SA2 for Id 2 here your append Option will get enabled using this you can get desired output as
Id Name Sales Area.
1 Neethu SA1; SA2
Rewards if useful....
Hope it will help you,

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.

Dear 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.

SRM scenario XI / PI requirements

Hi all,
i have a question regarding XI requirements in SRM scenarios. What are the requirements for CLASSIC, EXTENDED CLASSIC, STAND ALONE and DECOUPLED scenarios? Are there standard contents for all of them? I understand that in CLASSIC, the connection of ERP and SRM-EBP is via RFC. Can we use XI instead for the integration to be clear?

Hi
Downlaod SAP SRM SERVER and SRM SERVER IC tpz and import them in IR.
one of these would have the mappings and the other would contain service intrefaces. If you want to make any changes, copy this to a custom and make releavnt changes.

MDM catalogs to be used for PM-SRM scenario

Hello All,
We are in a situation where we are using the SRM-MDM scenario for regular shopping carts. And also would like to leverage these MDM catalogs for purchases made in ECC Plant Maintenance "work Orders" for non-stock ECC material numbers maintained in ECC.
These material numbers in ECC will have a Manufacturing Part Nmber (MPN) in the material master data.
Since we had some difficulty connecting these SRM-MDM catalogs directly to the ECC work order we would like to bring these requisitions generated by "Work Orders" and push them to SRM. (Standard SAP)
Once these Requisitions come into SRM as SC.. the system automatically approves this SC (Which is standard SAP) but in this process we would like to know if there is a way the system can automatically make a call to MDM based on the Manufacturing Part Number (MPN) and bring in the price and the vendor details back to the SC automatically.
Currently we are using SRM 6.0 and MDM 2.0 in our landscape..
Any suggestions will be appreciated and rewarded..

Service hierarchy for SRM-MDM catalogi scenario

Hello,
We tried setting up the 'new' SRM-MDM service hierarchy catalogi. I've looked over some sdn threads already and read the SAP help http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/en/6b/7fb967f6cd4df0a5a9d5dec7e4aa72/frameset.htm. Both told me the service hierarchy should work in the SRM 'bidding/RFx' scenario. Since service hierarchy should work for RFx we continued trying setting it up but ran into the following problem:
Up on opening our service hierarchy catalogi it returns the following message 'Table is empty' and does not show us any items(mss hierarchy is enabled in the SRM-MDM UI configuration for this catalogi). If we change thé UI setting to 'products' the items do show-up in a 'flat' manner (without hierarchy).
- We've set up grouping in the SRM-MDM catalogi for these items
- We've set up an entry in the MSS hierarchy lookup table and assigned this entry some of the catalogi items
- We've not setup any MSS Hierarchy price
- We've setup the item types, the outline item is of type 'MSS header' the subtypes are of type 'Free Text' and the MSS hierarchy entry is of type 'MSS header' aswell.
- we've setup the hierarchy manually with testdata via the important manager (no pi/ix).
Could anybody confirm service hierarchy works in the RFx scenario (mss hierarchy enabled)? Is there something we've missed or are forgetting? Any other pointters are greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tim

Hello Masa,
We have not loaded our service hierarchy catalogi items from ECC nor SRM. We've manually set-up test-date via the import manager and data manager tools. This, as long as you set it up correctly, should still work in my oppinion?
For the UI configuration the service (mss) is enabled causing the 'empty table' line to show up. If we would change it to 'product' the items would show but in a flat manner.
Do you have any other pointers . F.e. what the item types should be (subitems: free-text and header: mss-header) and what the role of the mss-hierachy and mss-pricing table are and what we should do with those? We've configured grouping (main item, component item, substitute item ..) to enable hierarchy is this correct?
Ps. What does 'MSS' stand for, what does it mean?
Kind regards,
Tim

Automatically create a PO from a catalog buy in the classic SRM scenario

All,
We are on SRM SAPK-70207INSRMSRV classic scenario and R3 EHP6 FOR SAP ERP 6.0
When a shopping cart is created and approved from the MDM catalogue we get an automatic purchase requisition. currently the purchasers manually create the purchase order from that purchase requisition but we want to have an automatic purchase order for every all catalogue buy.
is this possible in the classic scenario ?
Can we also assign specific purchasers to these automatically created purchase orders, based on, for instance, the purchasing group as we use vendor invoice management so these purchasers will receive invoices with a price differences.
Thanks as ever.
Antoinette

Depending on product responsability and organizational responsability, purchasing group is automatically determined for each SC item.
For those purchasing groups, users are assigned inside the PPOSA_BBP transaction.
So, i do not understand your request.
