SRM 7 ehp1 with ECC 6 ehp5?

Gurus,
Is it mandatory to use SRM 7 ehp1 with ECC 6 ehp5? Our client has ECC 6 ehp 4 and is now upgrading from SRM 4 to SRM 7 ehp1. Can you share some links where I can confirm if SRM 7 ehp1 with ECC 6 ehp5 is mandatory?
Also pl let me know what is the difference between shopping cart creation in SRM 4.0 and SRM 7.0 ehp1. SAP says they have changed something and made it more user friendly. Is it different from normal SRM 7 (without the ehp component?)
Regards,
John

Hi,
There are 3 ways of sending PO from SRM to ECC
1.Via - RFC ( by setting the system landscape to a lesser version ) it will not have any side effects just that it used RFC connections instead of ESOA
2.Via PI - by setting the landscape to the current version and configure the relevant XML services in the SOAMANGER
3. via Non PI Web Services- by setting the landscape to current version . This time the webservices are configured in SRM system itself.
I have configured transfer of Contracts from SRM 7.01 to ECC 6.5 EHP5 as Contract/ Scheduling Agreement to the backend with Non PI Web Services(via XML). This way we didnt have to install PI at the client place which saved them a lot.
I have written a blog on how to transfer central contracts from srm to ecc using web services but without PI , please find the link below and hope it is helpful.

SRM Sync with ECC

HI Everyone,
We are using Classic Approach and the SRM is integrated with ECC. Now we have a problem after doing client copy. We have done client copy only for Quality from PRD in ECC and not for SRM PRD to quality. So there is no proper sync between the SRM Quality and ECC quality. Hence the integration is not proper and the documents are not generated in the ECC quality.
Please guide me the procedure of how to sync the ECC with SRM qualtiy.
Thanks.
Siva

When system is copied from other systems all Logical systems and RFCs will be pointing to the old system. You need to run T-code BDLS for changing the Logical systems to the current systems. Then delete all master data like Material groups, Materials master, Vendors and then re replicate. This should solve your issue.
Thanks,

SRM 7.0 EHP1 integartion with ECC

HI,
We are currently using EHP4 of ECC and upgraded our SRM system from 5.0 to EHP1.
What is the min version reqt for integration SRM 7.0 EHP1 with ECC??
I read somehere that SRM 7.0 EHP1 cannot be integarted with ECC lower than EHP5?can someone confirm?

Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for the response!
It is recommended to have SRM 7.01 with ECC EHP4 (at least) to get the maximum advantage of integration part of SRM and ECC system. With these combination, you can create central contract via ESOA services and distribute the contract to R/3 backend system.
-->By SRM 7.0 .1 do you mean SRM 7.0 EHP1?
Can you also confirm if all features of ECC EHP4 are part of EHP5?(EHP4 is subset of EHP5)
We are currently on SRM 7.0 and are planning to upgrade to EHP1.However on the ECC side,we have all business functions needed in both EHP4 and EHP5.Considering this,would it be advisable to anyways upgrade SRM to EHP1?
Also by upgrading to EHP1,my undesratanding is that we only activate the scenario specific switches in the system..is that true?
Please advise.

How is the integration with ECC in SRM 7.0??

Hi,
Working with SRM 5.0 or 5.5 the use of XI for integration with ECC is not mandatory because when we send any document from ECC to SRM like requisitions (to convert them in shopping cards) or when we send any document from SRM to ECC like shopping cards, PO´s, contracts, we only use the RFC´s and the abap programs.
Is the same behavior with SRM 7.0?????
Could the integration from SRM 7 with ECC 6 work with RFC´S without XI or for this vertions is XI mandatory?????
Thanks

SRM70 is closely integrated with XI for transferring docs between ECC and SRM. SAP introduces eSOA tech nology with SRM70 and hence all documents like PR from ECC to SRM, Central Contract from SRM to ECC, PO creation (Classic), etc uses this techn ology.
Thanks,
Jagadish

Hi All,
I am new to SAP SRM 7.0.Could you please let me know that what are all the components needs to be in place to execute the technical scenarios and business scenarios.I had an hands on experience on SAP SRM 5.0 with ECC 6.0 backend.
Some where i read that there are lot of configuration changes when we integrate SRM 7 with ECC EHP 4.Do we need to have PI 7 for executing Centralized contract and plan driven procurement scenario?Please guide me to have some exposure towards higher version.Thank you in advance.

HI
Need to do following
1. Keep conidtion types in ECC & SRM same for contract.
2. Also Add message types BLAORD & COND_A manually in ECC in WE20.
Then only it works

SRM 5.0 as an Add on with ECC 6.0

Even i have the same question on how we would manage the distibution model when the SRM System is installed as an add on with ECC. Since being on the same client here are some of the Questions. I have also opened a new thread on this.
1.) How would the distribution model be distributed when on the same client?
2.) How would the Documents flow between two different systems?
3.) In an SUS-MM scenario, how would this be handled when installed on the same client?
4.) How would material and vendor replication facilitated?
Any thoughts would be highly appreciated !!
Thanks,
Sundeep

Hi Sundeep,
I have answered for vendor replication here :
One Client Solution
For product category, material and material type replication, this is same process through activation of relevant objects in table mdsv_ctrl_opt_a
Then you have to trigger the replication through mds_load_cockpit
For SUS, you have to select SUS_ONE (instead of EBP_ONE) in table bbp_backend_dest
That all what i know so far
Kind regards,
Yann

PO No range when we ink two SRM system with One ECC system

Hello Experts,
We have a client requirement to link Two SRM Systems with One ECC system.
In this case what number range we need to maintain in both SRM systems for PO.
-The number range of ECC PO should get update whenver the PO is transferred from any of the two SRM system.
-We have Extended classic scenario.
-Also PO Doc type is going to be same.
Can we handle this by increasing the buffer of the number range in one of the SRM system?
Any idea...pls help urgently.
Best Regards,
Anil
Edited by: anil.s.verma on Oct 1, 2010 4:33 PM

Hello Anil,
Being in Extended Classic Scenario (leading PO being in SRM, R/3 PO number range is concidered as external because PO number is given by SRM), the only solution for you is to:
1- give same number range interval for PO (internal in SRM system 1 and SRM system 2, external number range in R/3), e.g. 3100000000 - 3199999999
2- in SRM system 2, fill in current number with (for example) 3159999999 and let empty (or current value) in SRM system 1
3- assign, in each system for your concerned transaction type, number range as internal in SRM and external in R/3.
In this way, you will avoid overlaping in R/3 between PO numbers coming from SRM system 1 and SRM system 2
Regards.
Laurent.

Clariffications in MM SUS Scenario with ECC 6.0 backend and SRM 5.0

Dear Team,
We are implementing MM SUS Scenario with ECC 6.0 backend and SRM 5.0
We need to following clarifications
1 Once we create ASN in SUS, how to cancel the ASN. We are not able to see cancel button for ASNs
2 When we create GRN in ECC against the inbound delivery and perform Return Delivery, this Return Delivery is getting updated in SUS. But the ASN status is not changing to canceled. We are not able to perform new ASN for this. Also invoice is being allowed for these ASNs. How to control the same.
Request your inputs please

Did SRM 4.0 can work together with ECC 6?

Hi:
   We are in a process of upgrade, we are plannig to move from R3 4.7c to ECC 6, and also we have a SRM 4.0.
   Do you know if it is possible to SRM 4.0 to work with ECC 6?? We want to know if we can stay our current version of SRM, and just upgrade R3 to ECC.
   Does anyone have this scenario implemented in your business?
   I'll appreciate your answers.
   Best regards, Abraham

Copying custom fields from SRM PO to ECC PO standard fields

Hi All,
There are three custom fields which are added in SRM SC and PO at item level. My requirement is to map these three custom fields to three standard fields in ECC PO. Can any one please explain me, how the replication of SRM PO to ECC PO happens? I could find a function module "B470_PO_CREATE". Can any one tell me through which transaction or program this FM will be triggered.
Any useful answer will be rewarded
Thanks,
Deepthi

Hi Kumar,
Sorry for the late reply. I have the solution for this question.
For copying the custom fields code is to be written in the BADI "BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI", method "BBP_B46B_PO_OUTBOUND". This BADI has both ECC PO fields and all the SRM fields(including the custom fields added in PO and SC) in separate structures.IS_HEADER, IT_ITEM etc has all the SRM PO values. CS_BAPI_POHEADER, CT_BAPI_POITEM etc has ECC PO values.
There are two function modules, BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC and BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC_V2. Execute these function modules with the GUID for PO after PO change or create in SRM system. Once the FM is executed the BADI will be triggered and the additional functionality carried out and PO replication from SRM to ECC happens.
Hope this helps you. Please let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks,
Deepthi

SRM - Problem with a SRM Order with text position

Hello,
I produced an order requisition from SRM. (Document Type EC / Field Sel.Key NBB) Unfortunately I cannot change the category of commodities during this order requisition over the transaction ME52N. This must be however possible. The appropriate Field Sel.Key NBB is correctly adjusted.
The problem apparently lies in SRM. With normal SRM orders in the R/3 an order is put on. The category of commodities may not be changed then no more.
With SRM orders with text positions a order requisition is to be put on in the R/3. Functions also. The category of commodities is not also here alterable only unfortunately. That must function however.
My question: How can one change the data of the order requisition with text orders over SRM?
Regards
J.V.

hi J.v
you can make new request rather than changing the purchase request since material group in important data.
why you want to edit the PR and again trying to edit the data in sc created from pr.
I recommend you to create a new PR for your request.
since
eprofile offered sap ecc according to your material grp / purchase group combination inthe eban table (eprofile field).
but why you are trying to edit the same pr in the backend method(it is no.2 activity in sap - not supposed to do right)
if you dont want that request cancel the sc (complete it).
hope now you understood.

SRM SUS to ECC throgh PI

Hi Experts,
I need to develop a scenarion from SRM SUS to ECC through PI.My Requirement is From SUS the invoice is encrypted in a PDF format, PI will decrypt that and pass the data to ECC.(This is the reqirment).
MY concerns are: 1. Which scenario i need to develop in pi.
2. Is there any configuration settings are required in pi to convert encrypt to decry pt.
3. PDF to PDF scenario?
Can you please suggest me on this above requirements
Warm Regards,
Bala.

Hi Ranjan,
As of now without Ehp1, vendors are replicated to backend MM systems using a PI scenario "Supply_base_management".
And you are right, from Ehp1 vendor replication will be handled as you mentioned and ECC Ehp4 will support that.
