SRM - SAP/Procurement

Hello Guys
I am new with SRM and I have a work flow that work at the moment with the engineers creating a reservation that is checked by a warehouse material manager which according with the material availability triggers the procurement process creating a PR or just goods issue the material.
Is there any possibility that the SRM automatic would triggers the procurement process according with the material availability, remember that the reservation that the engineers raise it is allocated to a WBS element, and our stock is not valuated, which means the cost to the project comes from the PO.
If some one could send just the material that would explain some possibilities about the shopping cart triggering the warehouse management would be enough.
Thanks

Hi Carlos,
this is not possible alone within the SRM System.
Instead of this I would suggest the external requirement scenario.
You can do the MRP in the R/3 backend system, and send the purchase requisitions (depending on purchasing group or material group) with the external requirement scenario into the SRM system. This request will be sent into the sourcing coocpit as a shopping cart, which can be proceed by the sourcer (PO, Bid, Auction).
Kind regards,
Peter

SAP Procurement for Public Sector package

Hi All,
does anyone have any useful info on what is actually included in the SAP Procurement for Public Sector package?
I've read the solution brief which is really general and doens't actually give any details.
What I'm after is to know which components of SRM are actually included in this licensing package?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
I'm part of the IBU for Public Sector, specializing in the SAP PPS Package.
HIGH-LEVEL PACKAGE CONTENTS (a.k.a. BOM):
- SAP SRM (current GA release based on 5.0; Q4 08 planned release is based on 7.0)
- SAP Document Builder (current GA release v 2.0; Q4 08 planned release has v 3.0)
- SAP NW Records Management/Case Management (rights to use for any procurement scenarios - HR, FI, other uses require additional licenses)
- Enhancements to these components and SAP ERP 2005 that are known in the technical component list as Government Procurement 1.0 (in the current GA release) or Government Procurement 7.0 (in the Q4 08 release).
COMPONENT EXPLANATIONS:
- When we say "SAP SRM", generally we mean "the combined package of engines that were formerly sold as single components", including Strategic Sourcing, Bidding Engine, Auctions, MDM Catalog (only - not all MDM is included), etc. Legally, I cannot say "all SRM components" because the list may be changed periodically, but I cannot think of a particular exception either.
- SAP Document Builder is currently not sold separately.
- SAP NetWeaver Records and Case Management are not the ones used in CRM - these are the standard delivered apps for Records and Case Management with SAP, used to accomplish several PPS scenarios.
CLARIFICATIONS:
NOTE1: product PPS should NOT be referred to as "SAP Government Procurement", which is a retired product name. The term "Government Procurement" today only refers to the technical set of enhancements, and is an internal convention within SAP, so you won't see it referred to normally.
NOTE2: eSourcing is not the same as SRM. eSourcing is not part of PPS, and is not part of the license for PPS. We do not recommend a customer to buy both eSourcing and PPS, since they address different needs and pains. e.g., PPS should be considered when integration with ERP is important.
NOTE3: ERP 6.0 is required for PPS customers, but SRM 'core' does not have that dependency. It's too long to explain here, but suffice to say you wouldn't expect to be able to run an XBOX game on your 1986 Nintendo console. We cannot run most new PPS functionality on older ERP releases for much of the same reason: we have been building new functionality as quickly as NetWeaver gave us the tools to do so. If this stuff were easy it've been done by now - by SAP and our competitors.
However, rest assured ERP PRs (and SOs) can still start the process as well as SRM Shopping Carts and POs are replicated to ERP so follow-on GR/IR can be done in ERP.
Enhancements have been made to ERP 6.0 as well, including in the base release, and in EhP 3 and EhP 4 of ERP 6.0, which will be important with the Q4 08 PPS planned release, to enable signifcant new complex line item and pricing functionality and other features. And again - you can run Classic + Extended Classic using the Ext Classic BADI.
NOTE4: ERP 6.0 is not part of the PPS BOM and no ERP 6.0 rights are included. Customers must have Business Suite or other ERP user licenses in conjunction.
NOTE5: Customers with SRM licenses today may convert their license to PPS. This is done on a case-by-case basis, so SRM customers in Public Sector are not required to migrate or convert - contact your SAP AE for details if you need more information.
For more information, you can contact me at: FirstnamedotlastnameatSAPdotcom.
Rules prohibit me from typing the address into the answer, but I am the Field Services contact for partners in the Americas for this product so it's appropriate in this case to contact me directly.
Thanks to SDN regular Andreas Muno for sending me your Post so that I could respond.

Mapping of Intercompany transaction between SRM & SAP R/3

Hi SRM gurus,
We have a scenario where the client wants intercompany transactions to be mapped between SRM & R/3.
i) they say according to interco transactions, using SRM PO, the following journal entry will be posted upon GRN:
                    Dr           Expense
                         Cr          A/P to Co Code 1 for SRM Vendor code
Question : if co code 1 recognizes A/R in Intercompany code, can we match the balance i.e : is it possible to recognize "A/P to Co Code 1 for SRM Vendor code" as Intercompany balance
ii) When Co. 1 pays for pdts / services on behalf of Co. 2, an intercompany, the journal entry will be as follows :
Co. 1 : Payment voucher (FB60)
a) on GRN :
                    Dr   Prepaid promotion
                          Cr    GR/IR Clearing
b) on IR :
                    Dr    GR/IR Clearing
                          Cr    A/P to Vendor
Co. 1 : Journal Entry (FB70)
Charge to Co. 2
                    Dr. A/R from Co. 2
                          Cr. Prepaid Promotion
Co. 2 : Journal Entry (MIRO)
On Invoice Recipt to Co. 1
                    Dr. Expense
                          Cr. A/P to Co. 1
Is it possible to make a set of journal entries as below by make config changes in SAP R/3 :
Co.2 :
Upon GRN : Dr Expense
                       Cr GR/IR Clearing
Upon IR :   Dr GR/IR Clearing
                       Cr A/P to Co.1
Co.1:
Upon IR :   Dr. from Co. 2
                       Cr. A/P to Vendor
The client wants to track the above postings scenario through old vendor code which is used as SRM vendor code and which is same as maintained in R/3 vendor master "Previous acct. no." field in Accounting view. To me the above entry on IR in R/3 is not at all feasible.
Like to have your expert suggestions on the above scenario how to map b/w SRM & SAP R/3.
Rgds,
Samik

Hi. What exactly are you looking for with the vendor material number? Note 444976 and 412817 are about it not transferring, butthey are very old, you have not said what version of SRM you are using.
For the goods receipt, I doubt there will be a note to let you set the posting date or document date in the backend based on approval date, but you can easily use BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI method BBP_CONF_CHANGE to set this date to whetever you want.
Regards,
Dave.

ECC - SRM - External Procurement Scenario

Hi SRM Gurus,
I have to transfer Purchase requisitions from SAP ECC 6.0 to SAP SRM 5.0
the account assignment of these Purchase requisitions is "U", but it makes the purchase requisitions not to be written in the table EPRTRANS, in addiction there are no BAdIs or custome exit available in which I can insert some code to resolve the problem, the only one Customer Exit (BBPK0001) is not called if account assigment category on PR is Unknown.
Do you have any ideas to help us?
TX in advance.

Elementary Difference between Sap MM ,Sap SCM , Sap SRM ,Sap WM

Please let be know How these modules diffrent from each other on very basic levels and whats the pupose of keep introducing new module in place of enhance or upgrade existing module .

Hello,
Please use the report RM07MMFI to compare the MM and FI balances. In case, there are differences, please note that these differences may be inconsistencies in your system and to clear such inconsistencies, please contact SAP through a regular CSS customer message.
There are other comparison reports, such as SAPF190 which is very useful to find out inconsistencies in your system.
I hope the above information helps.
Thanks and regards,
