SRM POs going to Worklist

Hi All
We are working in ECS, SRM 4. The POs created in HELD status are reaching the Worklist (Maintained under Change Purchase Order) of the Buyer who has approved the shopping Cart.
How do we maintain this?
Thanks !!

Hi,
It looks incomplete PO. Please check Source of Supply is filled.
If you want to show up in Sourcing Cockpit, please customize "Define Sourcing for Product category" under SRM Server -> Sourcing.

SRM Integration in Universal Worklist (UWL)

Hi SRM freaks,
I've one question concerning SRM integration in Universal Worklist (UWL). Currently we have integrated our SAP SRM4.0(SRM_SERVER 500) solution in the SAP Enterprise Portal6.0, and after installation from an additional Business Package the system is working perfectly.
But we have one concern about UWL integration, the workitems which are send over eMail to the endusers are still containing ITS_DEST link which is defined in PPOMA. The following web link is pointing directly to SRM-EBP ITS link and not to the portal. Our idea would be to include a web link which is pointing to portal in order to access SRM-EBP content from there.
Can somebody help us on that topic !?
Thanks for your support.
Rafi

Rafi,
Hi. We are using SRM 5.5 and are intending on changing the ITS_DEST to run SRM through the portal.
That way any email links sent to the users always contain a link back to the Portal (which has our UWL configured).
I'm not too sure of the consequences of changing this attribute on release 500. Our system has an internal ITS - does yours?
Cheers
Rob

How to close down SRM POs

Hi,
How we close down SRM POs against ERP POs is there a different process we should be following?
what reports are available?
what is the SAP best practice?
Any help would be appreciated.
John

My advice re the tests.
Unplug the network cable.
I liked that idea at first. It definitely keeps one
from cheating by using the network. But then I had a
crazy idea - wouldn't it also keep one from taking the
online test?
Well, yes, I wondered about the online bit too, but people use terms in strange ways, and the idea of blocking ports seems inconsistent with the idea of a user taking the test being remote from the server that's supporting the test.
System.out.println("Do you have a second PC that you will use for cheating?"):
String ans = new BufferedReader(
    new InputStreamReader(System.in)
).readLine();
if(ans.equals("Yes"))
    System.out.println("You are not allowed to take this test.");
    System.exit(1);

ERS indicator of PO item is not checked for Contract assigned SRM POs.

Hi Team
We have SRM PO which is assigned to contract as source of supply and vendor for the contract document is assigned with ERS functionality (Aut. setlement in vendor master) for Invoice settlement.
Issue faced: When the contract is selected as sources of supply for Shopping cart and ordered as release order in MM (classic deployment) MM PO line ERS flag is not defaulted. Scenario works for normal procurement with vendor assigned Purchase orders.
Did any one faced similar issue in their landscape.
Regards
Prashanth K Saralaya

I think this is one of the vendor data synchronisation issue like OA vendor .
Vendor master team might change some data but in contract it will not be synched automaticaly. we may require action on CONTRACT equivalent to vendor master maintenance.
if the contract has ERS .It might be available in PO too when you refer contract.
debate come here like who takes precedence vendor master or contract ?
However customer may expect this ERS falg has to set in the contract as well as it may replicate the same in po as well.
for testing manually EDIT via ECC contract and flag ERS.

Checking for held POs in Open Worklist?

Does anyone know of a quick way that I can run an open worklist and look for only Purchase Orders that are on held status?
Thanks.
Andy

Hi
There are standard reports ME80FN/ ME2L - By Vendor / ME2M - By Material where you can get the results by selecting the field Incomplete.
Purchasing Document Vendor Material Purchasing Group Plant Document Date Order Quantity Order Unit Net Order Value Currency Order Price Unit Incomplete Purchasing Doc. Type
4500000174 1000005 100000220 100 1000 26/10/2009 10 TO 1,000.00 INR TO X NB
Or
You can fetch the details by making use of the table EKKO header Table where in felid MEMORY: Purchase order not yet complete.You can fetch all the PO documents foe which this indicator is set as X( Yes).

SRM: Item category B/D for limit PO

Hello Team,
Want to pose a question ? When created a Limit PO into SRM (item category Limit), I found that the back-end PO replica is been created with item category D.
Sounds starnge ?
I believe i did build the system correct with new account assignment category for UNKNOWN. Still system is picking up wrong item category and hence all calculations are going awary.
Please advice.
Thanks in anticipation.

Sandeep,
In addition to what Yann said. My analysis is:
There is one more dimention to this is that the vendor master flag "GR-based invoicing" has the impact on POs item category. If this flag from vendor master don't get transferred to PO then implement the OSS notes 956083.
Now after applying this notes you see the standard functionality:
If let say, we are creating PO with "Invoice Only" flag then there are follwoing options:
a) If the "GR based invoice" flag in vendor master is checked then the POs goes into D item category and you can enter a service sheet for them.
b) If the "GR based invoice" flag in vendor master is NOT checked then the POs goes into B item category and you can enter invoice just after PO.
Please assign points as applicable.

SRM file attachments to be maintained in a different server (content server

Hi Sap Gurus
we are using Extended classic senario of SRM, and Shopping cart, PRs, POs are created in SRM and remains in SRM only, (no transfer to ECC / backend)
and here in Shopping cart, PRs, and POs we attach external files (word, Pdf, gif files) relevantly,
we have a requirement to transfer the SRM external files / documents attached in to a different content server,
the requirement is simple, as to not to Load the SRM server with external documents or attachments, we would like to have this documents in a different Server (here inside content server) so that the documents are accessed and retrived from Content server every time by SRM.
Going to Transaction OAC0, we could see there are different content repositories available, having Document area, and storage Type mainly SAP System database.
here let me know among the list of different content repositories available which one specifically deals with external file attachment storage, so that i can change the storage Type to a Content server
is this the correct way to transfer our SRM external files to a different Content server, or any other best methord please eloborate
Points sure for any correct answers,
Thanks and Regards
Priya

Hi all
We are currently holding shopping cart attachments on the local server but the customer now wishes to hold this on OpenText repository. I have successfully implemented the OpenText repository by changing the value against BBPFILESYST to our bespoke value; however when I do this I can no longer see the attachments that were previously stored locally!
Can someone please advise how this may be achieved or, conversely, how these 'old' attachments can be moved to OpenText?
Many thanks in advance

SRM 7.02 Classic Scenario - Transfer of Purchase Order to Backend

Good day,
I would really appreciate some assistance on the following matter:
We are implementing the classic scenario of SRM7.02 with ECC6.04 as backend.
Our process is as follows: Purchase
Requisitions are created in ECC and transferred to SRM by means of report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER (we do not have PI/XI). These Purchase Requisitions are
converted to shopping carts in SRM and goes to the Sourcing Cockpit. RFX's are created and responses are entered on behalf of vendors. When I now want to
create a purchase order from the RFX response, I get a warning “PO xxxx is inthe process of transfer to backend system”.
When executing transaction SM21, I get a warning “XI unable to access SLD:"Could_not_determine_SLD_access_data". We do not have PI/XI and I would really
appreciate if somebody can assist me with the exact entries that must be maintained in table BBP_FUNCTION_MAP to transfer purchase orders from SRM to ECC.
I changed entries BUS2012 / CreateFromData1 /ERP_4.0/ERP_5.0 and ERP_6.0 from /SAPSRM/CL_SOA_ADPT_PO_CRT_ERP to L_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_PO_CRT_ERP10 and the PO replicated from SRM to ECC, but now in ECC, the purchase ordercannot be changed. It gives an error : Purchase Requisition xxxx can only be
ordered in system SRDxxxx (which is the SRM system).
Can somebody also please confirm that once Ihave replicated the Purchase order from SRM to ECC, the Purchase Order can be changed in ECC.
Thank you in advance,
Marinda

I managed to resolve this by changing the system landscape from ERP6.0 to ERP 6.02

Hi,
In SRM POs, GR based invoice indicator for Goods item is ticked based on the Vendor Master. If the vendor master has the tick, then PO will have the tick for GR based invoice. However for a service PO/limit PO, GR based invoice comes as default in PO and cannot be undone.

Purchase Order in SRM

Hi All
I have a very simple question .
Is it common for SRM implementations to not have the the GR-IV flag checked on Purhase order line item ?
Or in other words is it common to have in SRM , GR based invoices created ?
Thanks & Regards

SRM PO to ECC not desired

Hi,
I am working on a scenario where the client is not desiring the SRM PO created on the SRM Portal to be replicated (reflected) in ECC. ECC should not contain any SRM POs. Is this possible? If yes, how can this be done?
On the other hand they just want the approved invoices to move to ECC for payments. How can this be handled? Please answer.
Thanks,
Lisa

SRM table for backend PO & PR no. in Classic scenario

Hi All,
We are in classic scenario.
I need the table/view name which stores the PR and PO no. created in the backend system.
I could find different view names for PO,PR nos. from BBP_PD but is there any single table/view which stores this data ?
Any other table names will help.
regards,
Sambit

Muthu,
Appreciate your speedy response.
I found your answers helpful. Though the table didnt meet the requirement I have awarded you the points as it was helpful.
I'm not sure why but the BBP_PDBEI table should fetch the data when Bus. object type BUS2012 as suggested by you. But it only fetches the SRM POs created directly not the R/3 standard POs. I mean the table fetches "EBP PO" document type not the "R/3 PO" created directly in the R/3 backend system.
Thanks,
Sambit

Classic Scenarion with MM-SUS (SUS-ECC-SRM/EBP)

Hi SRM Gurus,
We are going for SRM Classic Scenario with MM-SUS . SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0 (Ehp4).
Here ECC will be connected to SRM and SUS ,i..e SUS-ECC-SRM.
I learnt that Classic deployment supports MM-SUS scenario. It means that , every document created in ECC or SRM(EBP) need to replicate in other 2 systems. I have concerns about this replication in 2 another systems.
1. PO-S/C in SRM , creates classic PO in ECC Is this PO sends to SUS ?
2. Confirmation-Is Confirmation done in ECC/SUS/SRM replicates in another 2 systems ?
3. Invoice-Is Invoice done in ECC/SUS/SRM replicates in another 2 systems ?
Can anyone please confirm /suggest , whether this happens or not ?
Regards
NAP

Narendra
I learnt that Classic deployment supports MM-SUS scenario. It means that , every document created in ECC or SRM(EBP) need to replicate in other 2 systems. I have concerns about this replication in 2 another systems. - EVERY DOCUMENT IS NOT CREATED IN 2 OTHER SYSTEMS. SRM PO GOES TO ECC AS CLASSIC PO. THIS CLASSIC PO IS SENT TO SUS WHERE IT CREATES A SALES ORDER FOR VENDOR. SO ITS NOT REALLY EVERY DOCUMENT IN TWO OTHER SYSTEMS
1. PO-S/C in SRM , creates classic PO in ECC Is this PO sends to SUS ? - ECC PO WILL BE SENT TO SUS. SRM-ECC INTERFACE REMAINS SAME HERE. THERE IS NO COMMUNICATION BETWEEN SRM AND SUS
2. Confirmation-Is Confirmation done in ECC/SUS/SRM replicates in another 2 systems ? - CONFIRMATION CAN BE DONE EITHER IN SUS(RECOMMENDED), OR IN SRM, OR IN ECC. CONFIRMATION CREATED IN SRM AND SUS WILL RESULT IN CREATION OF GOODS MOVEMENT IN ECC. GOODS MOVEMENT CREATED IN ECC WILL BE ONLY UPDATED AS A KIND OF FOLLOW ON DOCUMENT IN SUS AND SRM
3. Invoice-Is Invoice done in ECC/SUS/SRM replicates in another 2 systems ? - INVOICECAN BE DONE EITHER IN SUS(RECOMMENDED), OR IN SRM, OR IN ECC. INVOICE CREATED IN SRM AND SUS WILL RESULT IN CREATION OF MM INVOICE IN ECC. INVOICE CREATED IN ECC WILL BE ONLY UPDATED AS A KIND OF FOLLOW ON DOCUMENT IN SUS AND SRM
I hope it clears your doubts....

SRM PO : use default windows printer to print PO

Hi,
I have a customer requirement to output the SRM POs to the user windows default printer.
Customer do not want to configure printers through SPAD transaction...
Customer do not want to display PO in PDF and then to print it to windows printer.
Customer wants to select one or several PO (i already have a bespoke transaction for this in SRM) and then send them to the user windows default printer.
Did anybody already implement this behaviour ?
Kind regards,
Yann

The windows default printer can be configured in SAP as a LOCAL printer by the BASIS team. Once that is configured, you can simply specify the name (LOCL / LP01 / whatever the name given), in the printer name parameters.
check with your BASIS team what is the name for local printer configured in SAP.

Ravi
