SRM Purchasing Group by the user

Hi,
When the user create a SC, Purchasing group is determined by the material/product group (part of configuration).
Can the business user choose the Purchasing group while creating a SC ( like R/3 ) ?
If yes, how do I make it work, Please help.
-Pranav

Hi,
Yes but only if your Pgroups are pointed on your user/node where your user sits.
in that case, the drop down list in the SC will allow you to select the Pgroups.
in other terms, if the system is not able to select a pgroup because all your pgroups are configured the same way (Prcat..), then the user is able to select one amongst all pgroups.
Kind regards,
Yann

Not able to add groups to the user ODSEE via OIM 11g R2

Hi,
I have created some groups in ODSEE and ran the recon job to sync these groups in OIM 11g R2.
Groups are populated in OIM 11g R2 and while raising the request for ODSEE Application Instance I can see these groups.
Now following are the issues I am facing :
1. ODSEE groups are not getting displayed in Catalog ( I have ran the Entittlement-List job also)
2. When I request for a group while creating the request, the group is not getting assigned to the user in ODSEE, wherein user is getting created in ODSEE successfully.
Please help.
Thanks

Please let me know what could be the reason of not adding the groups to the user in ODSEE.
I was able to add the groups successfully to user by assigning the groups while raising the request in OIM 11g R1.
But the same is not working in OIM 11g R2, if I check the OIM logs it is calling the function ADDUSERTOGROUP but the groups are not getting assigned to user.
Thanks

Unable to see Active Directory Groups in the User Profile Database after Profile Import

***Major Update - I have finally been able to get the direct attention of the folks responsible for the User Profile Service on the SharePoint Product Team. Long story short, they have reproduced the error and identified as an actual mistake
that needs to be fixed, so it is now officially in the bug pipeline and will be fixed. The current estimate is some time in the summer. They will keep me updated with timeframes, which I am allowed to share as time goes on.
SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise RTM. W2K8R2 w/multi-server setup:
AD/DNS
SQL 2008
WFE
APP
Claims Mode Web App only using Windows Integrated Auth
So, this was never a problem in 2007, and I didn't even realize it was a problem in 2010 until I started to build a solution that utilized my blog article:
InfoPath - User Roles in Browser-Enabled Forms Using AD Groups. I went to utilize the same web method of the same web service, but I noticed that no data was showing up at all. Typically,
the GetUserMembership/GetCommonMembership methods return the specified user's memberships: AD Security Groups, AD Distribution Lists, and SharePoint Sites (not SharePoint Groups, though).
My user profile sync is working. All AD users are pulled in with the proper profile data.
"Users and Groups" is selected in the Synchronization Entities section of my Sync Settings.
Security groups are working for permissions and audience targeting. Confirmed my users are affected properly by the use of Security Groups.
My query to the GetUserMemberships web method (and GetCommonMemberships) is running (not failing), but it's not returning anything even though my user is in some Security Groups and has explicit membership to multiple sites.
The GetUserProfileByName method of the same UserProfileService.asmx web service
returns all the regular profile data like expected, so the web service works and my profile database is populated
Basically, I'm not seeing my AD groups or any membership data populated in the profile database. I did use MIISCLIENT.exe to see what I could find, and here is what I saw:
Using the Metaverse Search, I searched for the "person" type and saw all of the users in my profile sync connection (single OU)
Using the same tool, I searched for the "group" type and saw nothing, but the message said 4 items were retrieved
I realized that the only column showing was displayName, and they were blank, so I added other columns to be sure
objectGUID, objectType, distinguishedName all showed values, and I could now see all the Security Groups from the OU where I'm doing my profile sync
My "person" objects all have displayNames showing but none of the groups do. In SharePoint, the GetUserMemberships method relies on displayName and accountName, but neither are coming through the profile import
So, it does seem like the groups are coming in with the profile import, but I can't see them. I also can't verify that the groups are being associated with my users in the profile database, because doing a query to the membership methods returns nothing...not
even blank rows.
***Edit: New information! Regular AD Distribution Lists _do_ work properly. I just never bothered testing them until folks on my blog notified me. DLs come through the profile sync, are visible in the profile database, and show up
when using the GetUserMemberships method.
***Edit: Ok, now we're getting somewhere. I checked my last profile sync with the MIISCLIENT, and this is what I found:
Here are the properties of my Distribution List:
Here are the properties of my Security Group:
Notice that the groupType value of the DL is a normal integer (2), but the groupType value of the SG is some crazy negative number. Both types are still lacking DisplayNames for some reason, but when I retrieve the DL via GetUserMemberships, it DOES
show the proper DisplayName despite nothing showing in the MIISCLIENT.

Hello Clayton,
I have same problem with SP 2010 and now I am testing SP 2013 and seems that the problem still.aa
Probably I have some configuration problem, but all seems work, except this.
SharePoint 2013 has no improvements on this. Until seeing this thread, I thought it was an issue within my farm configuration or AD Service account for User Profile Sync. And I've dug far and wide for any other possible settings which would prevent users
from populating in the site people-picker. This might be flagged as off-topic, but I'll beg differ. How can I expect SharePoint to retrieve AD Users and Groups for accuracy in the sites which rely on this server??? Frustrating. I've spent hours and days on
this! I have 3 SP2013 farms with multiple clients (different OU's/containers and security groups). Testing in a separate QA DEV farm with the same config. NO luck yet!
This is where I'm at with it (posted this as a question recently on SharePoint Stack Exchange):
"Help.... Please.... Users from AD groups are not populating in the site people picker. I've set up a SharePoint 2013 site collection permissions group with only AD groups in it, no users added directly. Whether or not I give this SharePoint group permissions
to the site content, I still get none of the AD users showing up in the people picker. I have done the iisreset after adding the groups.
I've checked all of the people picker properties in stsadm to be sure there are no constraints in effect on the web app or site collections. User profiles are synching and I've tried both AD import and User Profile Sync. The AD groups are security
groups, though not email-enabled. The AD service account has all the special permissions. My web app is claims based. My app pool runs with Network Service account. No policies in place to restrict users, checked CA and the site collection settings.
What am I missing? I've read in multiple places that this is a supported/working config. So why can't I get these users to populate in people picker for things like Assigned To in a tasks list, or attendees of an event? "
There is some pretty good insight here, but no real hope:
User profile
synchronization: importing users and security groups in SharePoint 2010
Other Properties that I checked, before realizing this was an issue with the Profile Import...
stsadm -o getproperty -pn siteuseraccountdirectorypath -url https://URL
stsadm -o getproperty -propertyname peoplepicker-activedirectorysearchtimeout -url https://URL
stsadm -o getproperty -propertyname peoplepicker-distributionlistsearchdomains -url https://URL

stsadm -o getproperty -propertyname peoplepicker-searchadforests -url https://URL
stsadm -o getproperty -propertyname peoplepicker-serviceaccountdirectorypaths -url https://URL
Hope we find a better answer, as it IS very misleading. User Profile Import specifies Users, or Users and Groups. Nothing is said about Containers or Distribution Groups, worse yet there lacks any clear disclosure about how "Groups" will not
actually import if they are a Global Security Group and the users contained within them exclusively will NOT be included in your profiles,
nor in any compiled Audiences. Which was another BIG bummer!
I'm hoping to see future improvements on the Group imports.

How to transfer the correct Purchasing Group to the BE ?

Hi,
Im using the extended scenario, so...all my documents are transfered to my backend (R3) with the same purchasing group.
Now I want to change that, so.. every document sent to R3 should have the "corresponding" Purch. Group.
The problem here is that there's a person who decides how to reassign the workload between several Purch Groups.
My initial idea es:
- Add a new attribute in PPOMA for Local Purch Groups. This new attribute is the Purch Group Key in the backend.
- Customize the "transfer" badi in order to update the Purch Group.
Does exist any other solution to this ?   (I dont know if I'll be able to accomplish this even with my initial idea.
Thanks for your help !

Hi guys,
I found note: 787426.
Somebody has done this ?   I dont understand this fields:
PARTNER = business partner number of the requester in SRM
->Is it something like 50000202?
EXT_PARTNER_PFT = '0013' for requester
-> What is it ? Should be a hardcoded '0013 'value ?
PARENT_GUID = GUID of the relevant parent-entry (ITEM_GUID of the relevant item)
-> This value will be taken from... ?
Thank you !

Diego

Local purchasing group in the creation of a shopping cart

Hello everybody,
I'm working on SRM about shopping carts. When I create a shopping cart, the purchasing group is a local group, and no purchasing organisation is available. In fact, I want to be able to modify these elements and specially I want the values corresponding to the elements of the enterprise structure (PPOMA).
Could you help me please?
PS: the organisational elements correspond to the elements of the enterprise structure when I create a purchase order

Currently, I am able to send the email of the purchase order to the vendor mail address, which is mentioned on general data tab of the vendor master.
In addition, the requirement is that the purchase order also to be emailed to the User, who has created it.

However, when I try to add the VU and the user name to the vendor master partner details tab, the system is not taking in.
Please let me know how can I email the purchase order to user.
Thanks in advance for your time.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
1) Add the user email address also in the vendor master.
2) Verify all settings in condition records.
3) Check tcode sost for any waiting send requests.

SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser.OwnedGroups not incling the Groups where the user added throgh AD groups.

Hi All,

Hi,
The
SPUser.OwnedGroups property returns a group of
SPGroup objects that the SPUser owns.
When AD users or AD groups added in a SharePoint group, both will be seen as SharePoint user objects. That means “AD1” is only a SPUser object, not a “group”, there
is not a collection of SPUser objects in this SPUser object(AD1).
Therefore, the AD users added in the AD group will not belong to a SPGroup, though they have the permissions given through this SPGroup.

It is - came over from a Droid (was a former 3G user)... forgot how smooth and seamless the iPhone experience was. The Droid was nice, and Android is interesting, but the iPhone is so much simpler and easy. I hacked the heck out of the Droid, and it's so nice to be back on a smooth, "just works" phone.
Anyway, thanks again.

All Purchasing Groups need to be visible to a user

Hi,
I have an instance where an employee should be able to see all purchasing groups in the organisation. At this point of time he can only see purchasing groups in his organisation unit.
Please let me know how would it be possible to see all purchasing groups in the organisation.
Thanks
Sunny

Hi Sunny,
The available purchasing groups for the users is determined through the purch. group responsabilities.
To have all the purch groups available for the final users, set the responsability as global for all the groups: To do so add the Org structure Highest node in the org table control in the responsibility tab, and no material group, or generic entry '*'.
A second option is to use the BADI and add all the purch groups as possible entries.
My advice: be carteful, that a default purch group automatically assigned to the SC item is important, because few users will change it. You have to work on that (default determination in the BADI, checks in the BADI change for the SC, ...).
Regards.

PPOMA_BBP - Get purchasing group from user

Hi experts,
I have a Structure in which a user belong´s to multiple purchasing group´s. I need a function to return all the purchasing group´s from a given user.
Thanks in advance
Paulo Andrade

Hi Pradeep,
I tried with the function modules you say. It returned only one purchasing group, but the user is assigned to two purchasing groups in ppoma.Im using SRM2007.
Example:
User: TSTRFX
Position A10 - Impressos/economato 50,00 14.11.2008 Unlimited
Position A20 - Mobiliário 50,00 14.11.2008 Unlimited
Thanks

Purchasing Group authorization based on the user

Hi All,
Can anyone suggest me ideas on how to restrict in accessing details of a PO for a purchasing group based on the user who tries to access it .
the object is M-BEST_EKG.
need guidance in using AUTHORITY_CHECK in restriciting PO group based on the userid.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ry

Hi,
ACTIVITY controls what user can do to the PO.
01-Create
02-Change
03-Display
EKGRP controls the purchasing group
To restrict to a specific purchasing group, modify the authorization object in the role which user has to allow the specfic P.Grp. only
Cheers !

How can we change the purchasing group which it is maintained in R/3?

Hello All.
In case of MM, purchasing group is assigned to material master.
It means purchasing group is maintained based on material code.
But SRM has different maintenance level.
As you know that purchasing group has the responsibility based on material group (Product category).
So we should change the purchasing group from R/3, when end user create shopping cart.
How can we change the purchasing group which it is maintained in material master?
Thank you,
Best regards,
SH.

Hello So Hee,
I am not a technical guy.
But for your requirement i am building a logic.
I am not sure whether it will work.
You need to check with your ABAPER.
It is as below:
When the SC is approved and the other configuration is correct ,
PR is created in ECC by the virtue of BAPI.
You want that the pur grp should be populated on the base of matl code and not on matl grp.
Hence in SC you will not fill up pur grp.
In the programme for BBPSC01 i.e. SC creation you will add modification that it will call a custom FM.
This custom FM will get the matl code from SC and will find the value of pur grp from R/3 MM01i.e. matl master(you may get in MARA).
Now in the BAPI you need to incorporate this additional value of yr pur grp field.
So the desired pur grp as per yr R/3 matl master will be populated in yr R/3 PR.
Again: this is all hypothesis.
That's all I can help you.
