SRM 7 Contract Distribution not possible in PPS - is it true ?

Hi SRM Gurus,
I gather that the SRM 7.0 Central Contract are not distributed to ECC 6.04 in PPS environment.
( Ours is SRM 7.0 ECC 6.0 Enhp 4 with PI 7.11 on PPS - ECS.)
Correct me if i am wrong.
If so, is there any other way to distribute Central Contract to ECC . Even it its partial distribution.
Thogh, I hv config for CCTR following the SNote 1268821. To start the problem, the Distribution button on the header of the contract is disabled. CCTR tran type configured both in SRM and ECC.
Kindly share your thoughts.

Hello,
You can try reverting the note 1354971, to get an assign distribution button active at item level.
Interfaces(XML) which are used to transfered the central contract are not extended to all the fields related to PPS functionality. Eg. Guaranteed Minimum.
These fields will not be transfered to backend and other process like release value updation to the backend contract has limitation as PPS funcalities can be used only in extended classic scenario.
So we have a limitation and also this functionality will not be supported in PPS.
Nevertheless, you can enable this funcationality and use with the limitation.
You will have to handle this through custom meta data handle where you need to create dynamic class and method and maitain in the customizing table /SAPSRM/V_MDA_HC. You can enable the Assign distribution button and link in the dynamic class.
You can check the configuration in the standard meta table /SAPSRM/V_MDA_HD for reference.

SRM 7 Contract Distribution not possible in PPS

Hi all,
We're on SRM 7 / ECC6 EHP3, and activated PPS. I have been told that for PPS the distribution is not supported completely, and hence the functionality is disabled, NOTE 1354971.
My problem is, since we have activated the PPS functionality in all the landscapes we have at present. I can not switch PPS off or refer to another system without the PPS. By reverting the note 1354971, i have only managed to get an assign distribution button active at item level. I would have assumed, the contract/GOA should be able to be distributed at header level. Consider a contract with 1000 items.
Can please someone tell me what is the process for distributing a contract completely. Not just selective items.
Moreover, this does not work, when i have outline items/sub items in the contract.
Regards
Ali

As it was a bug , we have corrected this through the note 1354971.

When i try to raise a p.o agaist the contract i am getting the error as "Release orders against contract 4600000069 not possible (contract not released)"
What could be the problem and solution for the above error message.
Thanks

I had released and saved for all the levels i.e for all the release codes.
Still it is behaving the same.
I have not used any ref purchase org as mentioned above in one of replies.

Release orders against contract 4600000002 not possible (contract not relea

hi all,
Am trying to create a blanket po from a contract. but obviously, the release strategy i set up for po release has affected the contract created and hence gives the error above.
how can i over come this challenge please?

Dear,
Please check contract release status in ME33K, header - Release strategy. Check all released contract or not. If not do relase with ME35K.

Model distribution not possible in 4.7

Hello,
We have refreshed QAS client with client copy (data) from PRD system.
Afterwards, we created ALE model (BD64) in QAS and when we try to distribute it to DEV system we get an error:
"Client XXX is not available. Please choose an existing client".
If we create model in DEV, distribution to QAS works, but after finishing model setup, sending idocs from QAS to DEV fails with the same error:
"Client XXX is not available. Please choose an existing client".
In dev_rfc logs we can only see the same message:

Of course system is defined in SCC4, logical systems are correctly assigned.
Before client copy ALE worked ok.
Any ideas how to correct this error?

Hi Raymond,
All is well in SM59.
Since we copied data only during client copy this conversion should have been already made during that process as is written in BDLSS. We did copy client from PRD to QAS before and we did not need to run BDLSS for ALE to run ok.
Could BDLSS resolve this?

Sasha

Item mapping during SRM Contract Distribution

Hi All,
When I distribute Central Contract from SRM to ECC How do I do product mapping?
Eg - My product ID in SRM and ECC is different and while distributing contract to ECC, I would need to map SRM product to ECC product.
I checked FM BBP_PRODUCT_MAP is for the purpose of product mapping thru SAP Content Integrator.
SAP Content Integrator is a part of MDM where the mappings are maintained.
But in SRM 7.0 the Content integrator FMs like /SAPMCI/GET_CONTENT seems obsolete.
Any idea how the product mappings is achieved in SRM 7.0.
Thanks,
Rohith

Hi Andrew,
What error message are you getting when distributing the contract to ECC?

DSL contract changes not possible since FIOS is available?

I've been a Verizon DSL customer for 4-5 years. Only the 1.5Mbps is available to us. FIOS became available shortly after I signed for DSL. For the past year (or 2?), I've been considering moving out of state, as a result, I've been on the monthly plan (~$39/month). Yesterday I called Verizon because I wanted to see what the current DSL prices were (768Kbps service and the yearly price for the 1.5Mbps service) and if maybe the 3Mbps service had become available. To my surprise, I was told that I could not make any change to my DSL service since FIOS was available..... Now, I would love to need FIOS, but I can not justify the price for that cool toy when I don't even benefit from/use in full the 1.5Mbps DSL service....
Is this everybody's experience? Is that a new move for Verizon to try to pay for the fiber optic infrastructure they laid down? I mean, this is not something I asked them to do.... I'd rather have them go with faster DSL speed instead of fiber (that's what they have in other countries, ADSL 20 or 30Mbps) rather than not provide me a choice.... I've been a loyal customer and feel cheated. As much as I hate it, I'll have to look at what the cable company now offers since every dollar spent counts.
I'm probably a bad customer for all players involved (cheapest phone service, cheapest TV service, not cheapest DSL service).

When I moved in Auguest I had no problem getting the current DSL at my new place. I flat out told them if they said I had to have FIOS I would go to Comcast. Maybe you got someone new or something. I would try again. If you don't get the answer you want talk to a supervisor and if you still don't get the answer you want they have a line for people who have been unable to resolve issues through those normal channels. It is in the phone book. I have used it before. Good luck. I hope you are able to work it out.

SRM and MDM for material master in SRM contracts for multiple R/3

Dear all,
my question is:
We are implementing SRM 4.0 in classic scenario with multiple R/3 back-end and we want to set-up Global Outline Agreements in SRM in a multi-backend environment where the Material Master are not harmonized.
We heard that MDM and COntent Integraton can be a solution.
Then detailled question is:
Can we have 2 material numbers (e.g. ABC and XYZ) in 2 different R/3 systems refering the same product.
Have the mapping done in MDM (Content Integrator?) to a third material number:123
Replicating the material master 123 to SRM from MDM(?)
Create global Outline Agreements in SRM for Material Master 123.
Distribute the GOA as Outline Agreement to R/3 system 1 with the translation to ABC and to R/3 system 2 with the translation XYZ, all of that during the distribution step (or another).
Have the call-offs quantities correct on 123 in SRM and BW?
IF yes, how is it working, do you have some documentation discribing the scenario and the config steps to do?
Thanks in avance

Hello RD,
That's a good question.
You are on the right way. MDM is the tool for you.
But..
Content Integrator (CI) was first developped for Shell, to address the need of cross-referencing of material/supplier/category IDs, for:
- reporting purpose (actual Spend Analysis)
- mapping purpose (send of XML PO)
CI was later "fusionned" into the new MDM (1.0) solution.
So now, you can not order CI without MDM (even if some SRM slides still present CI).
But mapping API where developped for all inboud/outbound interfaces in SRM, for materials only (good luck for you).
You will find everywhere this piece of code:
Call ECI
    CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_PRODUCT_MAP'
      TABLES
        it_input          = lt_mapping_in
        et_output         = lt_mapping_out
      EXCEPTIONS
        logsys_not_found = 1
        driver_not_found = 2
        product_not_found = 3
        internal_error    = 4
        OTHERS            = 5.
So it is ok, you have the mapping call, but I don't know if all the rest of the process was really "finalized" (call of API mapping in CI, via XI). I personnaly never used it, but I assume it should work.
I my opinion your process is supported by SAP:
- Extract materials from both R/3 and consolidate them as a single product in MDM.
- Distribute this product into SRM.
- Maintain contracts on those products.
- Distribute them to R/3 (The ECI call is also used during contract distribution).
- Call offs corrects in SRM and BW
For MDM documentation, look at netweaver area of service.sap.com.
For MDM/SRM integration, look at SRM 4.0 spend analysis:
https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700004424262004E/GlobalSpendOverview.ppt
For SRM contract distribution, call-offs, BW, look at SRM in details in service.sap.com/srm/SRM4.0:
https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700001966382004E/contracten.ppt

No Contract Distribution with PPS

Hi guys,
We are implementing SRM7 with ECC6 EHP.
With reference to sap note 1354971 Disable Contract distribution in PPS, does it means we cannot use Central Contract function together with PPS activated?
As I understand the concept of Central Contract is to enable an Operational Contract to be used as valid source of supply in both SRM7 and ECC6 (and for this to be possible it has to be distributed to backend ECC6). However, if the distribution disable how would the contract available as source of supply in ECC6?
Cheers,
Tom

Tom
Thanks for your reply.
I am trying to get the contract distribution working but for some reason I seem to be missing something very fundamental.
I think that I have done all the required config steps and PI has been implemented accordingly.
Would you have any config notes / documentation that you would be will to share so that I can hopefully get to the bottom of it.
Regards
Keith

SRM 7.0 Central Contract- Distribution to backend failure

Hello experts,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 Central contracts scenario with PI.
The Contracts get created and Released but the problem is that the Distribution to backend fails. The Status in BBP_PD shows 'Distribution Incorrect' and the RZ20 gives an error 'Backend data cannot be read'.
We checked all the configuration settings (including the PI settings) and everything seems to be in order.
Would appreciate if someone could throw some light on the potential cause of the problem.
Thanks
Raman.

Message must have created . check all SRM outbound transactions .but PI could not catch them.
Note 1284369 - User attributes check in Contract distribution via services - what is your SP level in SRM 700.
The sap stratergy in earlier version
table in ECC BBPD_CTR_IDOCREF with message 019-This will result in setting the GOA status to 'Distribution Incorrect'.
so SAP might have tried the same way in CCTR as well, Once message are created and this message number like IDOC number updated in ECC table for the further refrence .so like wise SRM trying to communicate the same to ECC but it would have failed.
do you remeber when GOA idoc fails this table we will have reference number and reprocessing idoc.
like any reference of your input must register in one ECC table but there may have this table or some other reference table.
/SAPSRM/CL_CH_SOA_MAP_CTR_OUT CLASS DO SOME trick and see what is happening here

SRM Contract Catalog - Creation without XI - is that possible?

Hi,
I am working with a customer on SRM 4.0 / CCM 2.0 / Business Connector 4.7 ( standalone scenario ).
We need to have contract catalogs in our system.
So I read the post from Waheed Mohammad with similar request, but the different is, that I don´t have XI and I do not know what the business scenario "MasterDataInclusion" is
Does anybody know, if SRM Contract Catalog Creation works with Business Connector 4.7 too?!
And what settings have to be done?!
Would be glad, if someone could give me a hint.
Thanks and Regards,
J.H.

Hello Jason,
thanks, I suspect it !
Do you know if it is possible with Business Connector 4.7 ?!

Error in BP transfer No contract account for premise- move out not possible

Hi experts,
I am trying to transfer a BP from its current premise to another premise in the Web IC screen. While doing so i am facing the error saying that " No contract account for premise->move out not possible". I checked the contract account for the premise through normal premise search and it is existing.
I am facing this problem only when i am trying to transfer the BP which has multiple premise, for BPs having single premise it is working fine.
Request you to help me in this regard.
Thanks and regards,

Purchase info record and Contract are not reflected in SC

Hi...
while i am creating a shopping cart in SRM for a particular product... i am not able to find the Purchase info record or Contract in SC - Source of supply tab...
I maintained the Purchase info record and Contract for the particular material in Backend(4.7n).
Plz throw some lights on this...
thx....

Hi
if you are using classic scenario it might have dispalyed in SOS.
check info records/contracts are existed in backend for your product in srm?
is your cart is special request(describe requirement ) or internal goods and services?
if you are in ecs mode. it is not possible to see your inforecord/ backend contract in srm sos window

SRM - Contract management - product category - SRM 5.0

Hello,
The product category was set as mandatory field in the contract management.
By creating a contract or modifying an existing one, a product category must be selected.
When I'm connected in English, i can use product category search function, and all the product category are populated.
I'm so able to select a product category in the contract
But when I'm connected in French, it is impossible to use the search function because no values are populated.
I already check the transaction COMM_HIERARCHY, but English and French are already set.
Thank you for help.

1. GOA+LOcal contract = Central contratct.pls coreect me
:- Basically Central Contracts are created in SRM and copied to ECC. Then after you can refer that contract as GOA.
2. When the central contract is created in SRM is it dcistributed as Contract or Scheduling agreeemtn in ECC.
:- It's distributed as Contract.
3. Also, in SRM 7.0 is it possible to create contract directly in ecc from the sourcing cockpit.
:- No; it's not possible. You have to create contract in SRM first then you can distribute it to ECC.
