Sourcing cockpit

Hi all,
if I have a completed shopping cart with Purchase order ang good receipt, can I use the same SC to create another PO?
Thanks in advance.
Valerio

Hi Valerio,
the only way to avoid that an employee can use again a shopping cart he has been using before, is to go in se80 and delete the link in the transaction. For ex. access the web, when you are on the page with the link to old purch orders and templates, right click with the mouse. Do a 'find' of the words 'templates'or 'purchase orders'. Now go up looking for the html template. Once you have found the template name, go in se80, enter the template name or the correspondent service, then go and put the link in <--! and --> (comment). Republish. You will not see the link anymore.
Actually forbidding a user to copy an old shopping cart doesn't make any sense. He could always create a new one with the same data.
Anyway if there are other reason let us know.

Purchase Order error message when on Sourcing Cockpit.

Hi All,
I have encountered a series of error messages when I try to convert my Shopping Cart into a Purchase Order in SRM 5 within the Sourcing Cockpit. I am using Extended Classic Scenario and have defined the number range in SRM and ECC5. The error messages are below, the moment i try to concert the cart to a Po;
- Internal number range is missing for transaction type. Inform syst. admin
- Transaction type * does not exist. Check entries
- Some backend documents could not be generated, or they contain errors Further Information
- No status object is available for
I have checked the transaaction type, number ranges assignments, attributes in PPOMA_BBP but fail to find the cause.
Any pointers would be welcome!
Thnx,
Mike

Hi Muthu,
The number ranges are consistent as I have checked the number range for local purchase order and this is set as an internal between the range 3000000000 - 3999999999. On the transaction type for BUS2201 Purchase Order, 30 has been set as the Int Number Range, with all other fields left blank.
The strange thing is that the documents that failed to convert into a PO had been reprocessed in the Application Monitor for Purchase Orders, but when I go back into Sourcing to create the PO, I now get the message:
"You have either failed to select an item, or you cannot create a follow-on document due to an error that has occurred"

We can create the following documents from a shopping cart: Bid Invitation, Auction and Purchase Order, but not a Contract. The system goes exits out and dumps the following messages:
"Note
The following error text was processed in the system SV5 : Transaction type ECPO must not be used for object type BUS2000113

Hello Enrico,
Please maintain the transaction type for the BO/TransCat- BUS2000113 in the SPRO at the path SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic Settings->Define Transaction Types and also if you have implemented the Badi BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS , please verify the code for the method ~CONTRACT_LOGSYS_DETERMINE.
hope this info will be useful.

Custom Error Messages in Sourcing Cockpit do not prevent PO creation

Hi forum gurus,
We are implementing SRM 5.5 SP 9 in extended classic mode. We have implemented sourcing cockpit too.
We have coded an error message in the 'BBP_ITEM_CHECK' BADI for the sourcing cockpit and it appears correctly in the sourcing cockpit when necessary.
However, the system still allows the PO to be created, despite the error message being visible prior to clicking on the 'Create Purchase Order' button.
Any ideas? I will create a customer message to SAP with this anyway, but hoped someone may know for certain how to resolve it!
Thanks,
Nick

Hi,
Use the BADi "BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI".
See the foll thread:

PO split in sourcing cockpit ? :-(

Hello my helpful friends.je.je
I have quick question for the SRM gurus:
In the sourcing cockpit, I selected 20 items (per example) and the application splits those items among 2 purchase orders.
What is the reason of this behavior ? I know that ebp separates direct and indirect materials. But in this case everything is indirect.
Is there any field that may cause a PO split ?
Thanks and regards from Mexico !
diego

Following is the criteria which is used to split POs
For Backend Purchase Orders
Company Code
Purchasing Org
Purchasing Group
Document Type
Vendor
Subtype (Direct/Hierarchy)
FI Logical System
Logical System from where an External Requirement comes
For Local Purchase Orders additional criteria is used to split POs:
Delivery Address (for higher releases)
Procument Card Number
Procurement Card Company
Additionaly as mentioned by Vadim, check the Implementation of BADI BBP_SC_TRANSFER_BE (Method GROUP_PO) for any Customer Added Splitting Criteria.

Ashish

The Shopping cart not appearing in the sourcing cockpit of the buyer

Hi
We are using Extended Classic Scenario. The SC was created in SRM and then after approval was send to a central buyer for sourcing. The central buyer redistributes the same to the respective Buyer based on the purchasing group. However the SC doesnt appear in the sourcing cockpit of the actual buyer and when I see the details of the SC item in BBP_PD, I see that the Sourcing Relevant Indicator is marked 'Y' which means Sourcing is already completed. But nowhere a supplier has been added to the SC by anyone and it also doesnt reflect in the BBP_PD.
Any idea how and why the indicator has the status 'Y' and how can I make the SC appear in the sourcing cockpit of the buyer.

Hi Manoj,
If the SC is directly converted into a P.O (either ordered / held status) please check the Sourcing settings in SPRO.
SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > Sourcing > Define sourcing for product categories
Check whether sourcing always carried out was maintained for the required product category. The P.O will get directly created in case the setting is " Sourcing never carried out".
Please check this and let me know if this is the case.

Requirements reappear in Sourcing Cockpit after running BBP_GET_STATUS_2

I have set up plan-driven procurement in the extended classic scenario in SRM 5.0 with an ECC 5.0 back-end. When I assign a vendor to a shopping cart in the sourcing cockpit for an external requirement, it disappears from the worklist. As soon as I have run program BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and I run transaction BBPSOCO01 again, the SC will appear in the worklist again although a PO has been created in both SRM as in the Back-end system. The status of the SC is ordered, the Purchase Requisition is not send again to SRM and I have implemented all relevant notes for program BBP_GET_STATUS_2. How can I prevent that shopping carts are being ordered multiple times? The problem is similar to the problem from KA posted on 9 July 2007, only this is not yet solved.

Hi Nishant,
Thanks for your answer. The problem I have that I have already applied note 1050349. Besides note 1050349 I have also implemented the following notes:

PR to SRM Sourcing Cockpit Issue

In ECC, the ME_SOU* BADI is implemented to activate sending PR of type RV to go to SRM Sourcing Cockpit.
The necessary Workflow Event Linkages are activated in ECC to send the PR to SRM.
When the PR is released, it does not trigger the event to call the workflow. The event trace SWELS at the time of releasing the PR does not show any events triggered.
Any thoughts here to resolve this issue?
Thanks

Hi Kasee,
If you are going to transfer ECC PR to SRM via SOA, the following steps should be configured well in ECC side:
1, LOG_MM_P2PSE_1 should be activated via trx SFW5 in ECC side;
2, implement BADI ME_REQ_SOURCING_CUST;
3, go to trx SWETYPV and check if the following objects are existing:
BUS2015 RFXREQUESTED
BUS2105 SOURCINGREQUESTED
4,activate outbound message as below:
(ERP) Transaction SPRO -> Other mySAP.com components->Supplier Relationship Management->
Message Control-->Activate outbound messages through qRFC
BUS2015 RFXREQUESTED
BUS2105 SOURCINGREQUESTED
5, configure RFC destination for workflow system
6,configure RFC destination for SAP XI
7, create SU01 XI user
8, trx olme: Portal >Set Up Landscape
9, trx smqr: MMPURS_BUS2105_* should be registered.
XML message should be triggered after this.
You may also refer to the following notes:
note 1263876
note 1268336
Hope this helps.

IGA

Need Information on Sourcing cockpit and Business rule framework

Hi Experts,
I am having 2 general qustions :
1. ) What is sourcing Cokpit and what are the things that we can done from sourcing cockpit.Please explain in detail.
example : what i knw abt sourcing is...... It means from where we are going to source our material means vendor.
My idea is to know everything abt sourcing cockpit.
2. ) In SRM 7.0 what is the Busniess rule framework concept and if i need to configure a BRF approval process with respect to Shopping cart and a Purchase order in Extended classic scenario then how do i need to move ahead.
Thanks
Sunny

Hi,
Q no 1:
Sourcing Cockpit is an area from where you can source the requirements..There are two ways by which sourcing can be done.
1. The Purchase requisiton created from ECC 6.0 can be pushed to SRM for Sourcing . Either direct material with Part no or
Service requirement without part number
2. The shopping cart created in SRM can be converted to sourcing.
once the requirments are flown from ECC 6.0 and SRM . in the SRM server in sourcing node--click Carry our sourcing.
you can get all the requirements.
From this you can convert it to Purchase order,contract,Auction. Bid invitation.
Q. no 2 :Business Rule Framework.(BRF)
This is related to Workflow .From SRM 7.0 this workflow is called Process controlled workflow. Only by simple rules the
Workflow for Approval process for P.O ,Contract,Bid invitation can be done.
If you are SAP ABAP person they you can confugure this .Normally ABAP person will do this.. Please go to S ID and get the
details there for Business rule framework
Just check in this forum in Search you can get more details and notes
go to Google.com and enter business rule framework you get more material

Buyer not able to change fields of SC in sourcing cockpit in SRM 7.0

Hi
We are on SRM 7.0 , SP 07 . We are in classic mode.
Buyer is not able to change fields of shopping cart in sourcing cockpit like delivery date and quantity . He is able to add supplier and create PO . Even when he creates draft PO , he is not able to edit the fields of shopping cart like delivery date and quantity. Is it a standard Bug , is their any OSS SAP Note for this
Regards
Ashish

As per SAP Standard BUYER can only vendor and Enter price and create a follow on document.
Buyer does not have a control to edit other data.
Buyer wants to they can do it in ME21N ..PO
not in the shopping cart

Should the vendor in the Shopping Cart be updated from the Sourcing Cockpit

Hi All,
hopefully an easy question for someone to answer.
When a vendor is assigned in the Sourcing Cockpit and the Purchase Order is created should the vendor be updated in the linked shopping cart?
Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,
All questions are welcome irrespective of the criticality so you are free to ask anything related to SRM.
The vendor will not get updated in the shopping cart if you assign a vendor at the time of sourcing while creating a P.O. The same can be checked out by selecting the Source of supply / service agents link in the check status for a particular shopping cart.
The source of supply field will only be populated when you assign the vendor at the shopping cart level and not during the P.O creation.
Hope this will make you clear.

Shopping cart not in sourcing cockpit after PO qty been reduced

Hi ,
We have a issue where a shopping cart was created with qty 100 and it came to sourcing cockpit.PO was then created for the shopping cart with the value qty 100. Later GR and Invoice was done for against the PO for quantity 25. PO qty was then reduced to 25. But still the shopping cart has not come back to the sourcing cockpit.
Table BBP_PDIGP shows the following value for the item of the shopping cart :
VAL ASN E = 0
VAL ASN = 0
VAL CF E = 25
VAL CF    =          0.00
VAL CF     =         0.00
VAL IV E       =     25.00
VAL IV       =       0.00
VAL PO E        =    0.00
VAL PO E AGG     =   0.00
QUAN ASN E      =    0.000
QUAN ASN      =      0.000
QUAN CF E =          25.00
QUAN CF       =      0.000
QUAN IV E    =       25.00
QUAN IV        =     0.000
QUAN PO E =        25.00
NUM ASN      =       0
NUM CONF     =       0
NUM INV     =        0
SOURCE REL IND = blank
My questions are :
1) Root cause of the issue ? Scenario where this can happen ?
2 ) How to resolve the issue ? Just changing the SOURCE REL IND to X does not suffice (Tried the FM BBP_PDIGP_DB_DIRECT_UPDATE to set the sourcing indicator ) . Only when I clear all the values shown above to zero (change the values from 25 to 0) , does the shopping cart comes to sourcing cockpit . But the SC come with the qty 100 which is not correct , it should be 100- 25 = 75.
Please suggest and pls answer all the questions.
REgards,
Saurav

Hi
as of now ,
if the deletion of purchase order can make shopping cart item available in the cockpit.
but you can not expect the sc item should goes to cockpit if the PO quantity has been reduced .
In the PDP scenario - SAP suggested some custom logic if the quantity increased in the PR and remaining item comes / shows in the cockpit but no sap never provide any solution for quantity REDUCED.
Muthuraman
The above is my experience but you can check with SAP what is the standard.

Type PO by item in Sourcing Cockpit (new field)

Hi Dear Experts,
I need your help again.
I`m working with extended classic scenario (SRM 5.0 and R/3 4.7)
I have a big issue in my process: I need to choose the type of PO by item in sourcing cockpig, but that needs to be done manually by the user, because I don`t have rule of business to include in the program for automatically determining the type of PO - by the system (like Pgroup or POrganization).
I checked the note 1052650 - Sourcing cockpit: Split criteria for creating follow-on docs, but this note doesn`t resolve my issue.
I need to include one new field in item level (Sourcing cockpit) and use this new field in split_po_loc_cmp_criteria.
Someone knows if it`s possible or not to resolve this issue ? Or Someone knows wich badi ou other criteria I need to use for solution this big problem ???
Thanks very much.
Best regards,
Cris
