SRM Invoice posting without PO reference - Contract Management

Dear experts,
We are on SRM 701 with ECC 6.0, in ECS.
Our requirement is to allow invoice posting in SRM, without PO reference. The invoice will only refer to an existing SRM central contract.
We did all the relevant customizing and we were able to:
Replicate SRM central contract to ERP, through PI;
Invoice creation in SRM and posting in the backend (FI), through IDOCs.
As far as I understood in this scenario, the invoice posting is made only through FI (not using MIRO).
My expectation was to have the contract number in some field at the invoice document level, in the FI.  However there is absolutely no reference to the contract in the invoice document. Does anyone know if this is a standard behavior and/or any idea of how to achieve my requirement to have the contract number in the invoice posting?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Andreia

Hi guys,
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks!

  • Invoice posting without doing GR

    Hi Gurus,
    We have a requirement where we want to do establish 2 way matching between PO and invoice posting without doing GR for procurement of free text material ( Purchase Requistion->PO).
    How can we establish this process.
    Regards
    Ashish

    Hi
    We  already looked into the option which you have suggested but we are creating auto Pos (ME59n) from ecatalogue shopping cart (which is always free text material) in SRM , the PO then goes to vendor by NEU message type ( ALE cond record) so buyer has no option of deselecting "GR" flag and neither "GR based IV flag" on PO.
    Pls suggest what can be done so that invoice can be posted without GR.

  • Using SRM for carrier and freight forwarder contract management

    Hi,
    Does it make sense to use SRM to manage contracts from carriers and freight forwarder? Has anybody done that? The documentation I read makes me think SRM is oriented towards manufacturers.
    Do you recommend any other solution for this situation?
    Any comments are highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Prakash,
    SRM does provide the facility of contract management with the help of Purchase Contracts and Global Outline Agreements but it is used as part of the sourcing for materials and services. The materials or services have contracts against some given target value against which PO is released. The contract is based on a material number ( eithe material or a service) which will be used as a source of supply during the creation of the Shopping Cart. It might not really fit in the scenario of carrier and freight forwarders but still can be customized for this kind of use.
    The contract management functionalities in the R/3 space can also be looked on for this purpose.

  • Baseline date not getting populated from SRM invoices posted to ECC 6.0

    Hi,
    We are currently in ECC 6.0. The SRM system is in 4.0. We have this particular problem that the baseline date is not getting populated from the Invoices posted from the SRM. The baseline date is blank and the document is saved.
    Did anyone face the same problem??? Can you please refer SAP note 541934 and expand........
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Yes, you could check the attached note 541934 and regard the implementation of the field ZFBDT in the invoicing document.
    Note 541934 provides a solution how to achieve the MM-customizing for payment baseline dates getting effective for invoices with SRM-origin. This note needs to be applied at your ERP-MM-side in the former plug-in-layer. As described in the note, this is a modification. It's recommended to apply in non-productive system first.
    Hope the above infor.are helps for you!

  • SRM Invoice posting issue

    Hi Experts,
    We are working on SRM 5.0 . Few days back new support pack 'SAPKIBKT14' was implemented.
    After this we are trying to post the invoice based on PO in SRM. we entered the PO number and clicked on 'Insert',
    then it should display the item details as well as 'Invoicing party' & 'Vendor' details. But here in my case
    'Invoicing party' & 'Vendor' details are not displaying, only items details are displaying.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    The invoice is created in SRM but it doesn't replicate, Have you checked the inbound IDOC in your backend (Tx we05)
    In the status segment you should see the error.
    I hope this help

  • SRM, MDM, ECC integration for central contract management.

    Hi there,
    I am questioned by a client with respect to the possibility of the following scenario -
    1. There are several SAP back end systems in place.
    2. SRM 7.0 will be implemented as single sourcing system.
    3. The SAP back end systems carry different material master codes for the same material and this will remain the same and no cleaning effort to have a unique code across all systems is going to be done.
    4. If we use MDM in the mix - will it be possible for the SRM system to act as a central contracting solution and create a central contract with the unique material code in MDM.
    5. On distribution of this contract across to individual SAP back end system the back end should map the MDM code to correct material code in that respective system.
    Any insights with respect to if this is possible with some enhancements or not at all possible will be highly appreciated.

  • Invoices posted without good receipt initial posting - please help

    Hi Gurus,
    I would like to ask you if you have and answer / solution for this situation.
    I have a release order with 6 invoices + goods receipt. The problem here is that all the invoices were posted, but not the initial goods receipt. a Financial account had already been posted as well, so i dont know how i will solve this situation !!
    Can u please help me ?
    If u need more information please ask me.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mário.

    Hi
    If you see these invoices in the vendor line items, all would have got payment block in it. Unless GR is done for these PO's, it will not get released automatically. If GR is not required for these invoices, then you will be able to make payment. But if GR based IV is ticked in PO, unless you do GR, you will not be able to make payment to the vendor.
    You can still post GR through MIGO for the same PO. System will allow you to post GR for these invoices.
    Award points if found useful.

  • ERP release for Central Contract Management with SRM 7.0 EhP 1

    Hi all,
    i would like to have clarification with ERP and SRM release combinations regarding SRM 7.0 EhP1.
    Indeed, the "Software Component Matrix for SAP SRM 7.0 EHP1", for Operational Contract Management, tells 'EHP 5 for SAP ERP 6.0 required'.
    Moreover, in RKT dealing with SRM EhP1 delta overview, ERP 6.0 with EhP5 is mandatory for an upgrade to SRM7.01.
    Nevertheless, i would like to have confirmation regarding this point.
    We do not want to use PI to execute the Enterprise Services for CCM. So, we intend to switch BF SRM_WSRM_1 on.
    But on the ERP side (EhP5), the only BF dealing with Contract Management is LOG_MM_P2PSE_2 which description is about Service Procurement (and more exactly for item hierarchies).
    Does it mean we can use SRM 7.01 with ERP 6.0 EhP4 and without PI but only if we do not use Central Contracts with service hierarchies ?
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards.
    Laurent.

    Hi Laurent,
    Yes.
    When Central contract was designed in SRM 7.0 with ERP EhP4, it was designed with no service hierarchy. But in SRM 7.01 Central contral was enhanced to handle service hierarchy and it works with ERP EhP5. The problem is when we have SRM 7.01 and ERP EhP4. To handle this complication SRM 7.01 was designed to send flat service lines to EhP4 and lower release even though Central contract in SRM has service hierarchy. So while transfering to ERP EhP4 system in standard, all outlines are not consider for transfer and only service lines (Functional items) are transferred to ERP. To do so user needs to maintain the backend destination information of the connected backend system in table BBP_BACKEND_DEST via SM30 transaction with correct system type (for EhP4 system it will be ERP_4.0 and for EhP5 ERP_5.0). SAP Standard program checks this while XML generation for transfer and if system type is ERP_4.0 system it removes all outlines from temp table before generating the XML data. When it is done, ERP has only service lines in its XML and it does the manupulation to create the replication of central contract.
    Master Guide (Including Upgrade Information) - SAP SRM 7.01 states:
    "The use of SAP NetWeaver PI is optional but it is required for outbound XML-based messaging or for connecting non-SAP planning or execution systems."
    So service hierarchy is possible in SRM 7.01 and ECC 6.04 but only with PI. For other CCM functionalities, SRM 7.01 and ECC 6.04 without PI works fine.
    Best regards,
    Christian Zeuch

  • Using SRM for very large contracts and contract management

    We are doing an SRM 7.01 implementation project. SRM will be used primarily for outsourced contract management. The contracts are all services associated with facilitites (plant) maintenance and also support services like cleaning or catering.
    They have very large numbers of items priced individually (e.g. 10,000) per contract. The items price depends on the location the work is expected to be performed. The location is represented in SAP RE-FX architectual object. The price can be priced at any level of the hierarchy e.g. service A is priced the same across the whole state but service B is priced per campus.
    q1. SAP advises that there are performance limitations on SRM contracts >2000 lines. Has anyone experience in a solution to provide very large contracts in SRM? How did you do it please?
    q2. SAP advises to use the plant to represent the location for pricing purposes, but this would result in a very large number of plants. Has any one experience in alternative solutions to for variable location pricing in SRM contracts please? I.e. like integrating the RE-FX architectural object or similar into contract and PO line items.
    thanks very much

    We consider the upgrading to SRM 7 end we need to know if in this VER' the Contracts present the item price when you using condition in item line.
    Thanks
    Isiaki

    Hi
    the price has more than one prices and you have to click see conditions and see
    orSRM tables;-
    1)       Take the GUID from CRMD_ORDERADM_I table
    2)       And input that GUID to /1CN/CBPSAP016 table
    ECC tables: -
    1)       A016 (Input GOA number and item number)
    2)       You will get KNUMH numbers
    3)       Enter KNUMH numbers in KONP table
    4)       You wil get all the pricing condition details

  • Condition types and Pricing in Contract management - SRM

    Hello,
    We have configured Contract management in SRM 5.0 (Global Outline Agreement).
    I'm trying to create an exact rpelica of the R/3 pricing in SRM. Surprisingly when I created all condition types in SRM, it needs condition group maintenance. which in turn needs an access sequence. Now following are the problems I'm experiencing..
    1. It is allowing to create a condition group maintenance in TTE. Somehow I managed it thru SPRO to create the one under BBP.
    2. No menu path available to create a condition table under BBP. Again the same available for TTE. I managed to create this one as well.
    3. Now the price/net price maintained at line item should get assigned to PB00 by default, but this does not get assigned.
    4. All the documentation talks about implementation of BADI, but that does not help, cuz condition types may be created for new terms/norms in future.
    Anyone has created condition types in SRM and implemented the same in Contract management and successfully replicated the contract in the backend with all condition types carried with values?
    Regards,
    Ashish

    Hi
    you check the bellow table for contacts data.
    ekko--> Contract header data
    ekpo--> Contract item data
    konh--> Conditions header data
    konp--> Conditions Item data

  • Downpayment clearing for opentext automatic invoice posting

    Hello everyone. My client is using OpenText VIM ( Vendor Invoice Management ) for incoming invoices. VIM automatically triggers FB60 (in case of PO invoice) & MIRO ( In case of PO invoice ). The invoice posting happens automatically in the background which doesn't allow automatic vendor downpayment clearing against these invoices ( done my a 'down payment clearing' push button in normal circumstances in MIRO when posting the invoice manually ). My client doesnt want to use F-54 for downpayment clearing after MIRO. Many of your clients now-a-days would be using automatic invoice posting , how are you guys managing the automatic downpayment process. I would really appreciate any kind of help. Thanks in advance

    IN A090 metioned the account under down payment clearing account field.

    Hi All,
    I need to create vendor invoice (without PO reference) as we do using FB60.
    How it can be done?
    Is there any BAPI which can be used ?
    I have used BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE to create vendor invoice with PO reference.
    Is the same BAPI we can use for creating invoice without PO reference? how to use ? or any other solution.
    Thank you very much....

    Hi Ashvender,
    Thanks for Replying....
    You are right we create IV with PO reference using MIRO and
    We create FI invoice by FB60 i.e without PO reference. But i want to upload data from excel sheet for without PO reference for FB60 as per given template below
    <b>Invoices with no reference to PO - FB60 format</b>
    Vendor       Date         reference        header txt    Bus area    G/L account
