'Supplier Registration' option

Hello,
We work with SRM_SERVER 550, SP12.
We want to use the 'Supplier Registration'. Do I have to use XI (Exchange Infrastructure) to transfer the suppliers from the supplier registration system to the SRM system?
Thanks
Yaron Malka, HP

Hi,
XI is not required for transferring supplier to SRM. Supplier is transfered via OPI (Open partner Interface).

Duplicate vendor check during supplier registration

Hi Gurus,
Does SAP SRM ROS check for duplicate vendor during supplier registration? if it is not done in standard, can it be enhanced to do so?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Ranjan,
Every supplier who registers will have a unique BP number in the ROS client. However checking for duplicacy by name is not supported in standard ROS.
One option is that when a strategic purchaser accepts these suppliers and creates a BP in SRM, he notices a duplicacy and informs the vendor. However this will fail if there is a huge volume of vendors registering everyday.
Possible workaround: When the new vendor fills in the registration form, he provides the name of organisation and this is stored in tables using BAPIBUS1006_CENTRAL_ORGAN. May be you can sit with an ABAP guy and find out in which table this entry sits. You can then have a Z table where you store all these organisation names whenever a new vendor registers and for checking duplicacy you could run a loop through this Ztable Column which stores the name and display a message on 'ROS_SELF_REG' BSP reg page whenever a duplicate entry is found.
PS : Entries like 'IBM' and 'IBM Ltd' will still be created as 2 different entities even though they mean the same.

Supplier Registration Questions

Hi everybody,
We are on SRM 5.0 and I am trying to implement the supplier registration system. I have 2 questions on supplier registration:
- Is there a way select buyers can be notified when a supplier registers in the registration page?
- We have several new fields that need to be included in the supplier registration page. Is there a easy way (using BADI or otherwise) to show all these fields in the Screen Suppliers transaction?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Venkat

Hi Venkat
1) No standard option. Need to develop a report.
2) Not to my knowledge. Check ROS_REQ_CUF
Best regards

Supplier Registration Custom Fields

Hello,
My client has a requirement to include custom fields to the Supplier Registration form (ROS_SELF_REG) - I was wondering if there's an easy way to achieve that?
Thanks,
Umar

Hi Jagdish,
Apparently OCI includes 5 custom fields that can be used or schema can be extended using I_OCI_CUSTOMER_EXTENSION; I was wondering if such an option exists for OPI as well or is changing the BSP application the only option available. To implement the complete registration process, I'll need to carry the additional fields from OPI to BP Creation.
One other approach that I have thought about is to use one of the unused fields (in our case, for example, PO BOX) and customize the TRANSFER routines (OPI to SRM/BP). What do you think?
Thanks!
Umar

Supplier Registration Process

Hi,
I am trying to configure Supplier Registration and preselection process in EBP.
1. Supplier is filling Registration form and sending the same.
2. This data is appearing in preselect supplier screen with option to accept and reject or set to NEW.
3. Manager is accepting the same in preselect screen but he is not getting any indication or message that action is complete. There is no acceptance indication is coming.
4. Further in preselect screen on clicking supplier link supplier data should appear that is also not happening
5. While I am going to Manage business partner to convert new registered to bidder or Vendor than also it is not appearing.
I have activated all relevent services and all customization is done as per configuration guide.
What is missing?
Thanks
Sanjay
Thanks

Hello Sanjay,
3. There is no return message when accepting the supplier: its BP status is set to "Accepted" so it disappears from the refreshed list if you have default search criteria 'New'.
You should find the corresponding Prospect with BP transaction, with 'not released' flag unchecked in status tab.
By accepting this prospect, you only change its status via function ROS_BUPA_CHANGE_STATUS.
If there is a supplier directory activated in CCM, then this accepted vendor is sent to CCM, where it becomes selectable via OPI.
I think this is the only XI message related to this acceptance.
Otherwise, this accepted prospect is available in SRM/SUS Supplier directory, via OPI --> your step 5
There is no workflow at the moment.
4- In supplier prescreening, no additional data is supposed to be displayed (you just changed the prospect status)
5- if Self registration on SRM client: In SRM transaction Manage Business Partner, enter the new BP ID (got it from prescreening list) or search it and convert it to vendor. Then add all purchasing data, vendor org ID and so on.
Self registration & SUS are supposed to work on the same client/server, and SRM on another one.
I guess you are trying to make it work on a all-in-one installation. If not, the prospect remains in SUS and that's why you don't find it in SRM.
Then see next step:
You can also access directly to the accepted prospect from all sourcing activities (SOCO, VL, BID), via OPI "catalog". In that case you need purchaser autorisations to create a vendor in SRM automatically from retrive OPI data.
If SUS activated, an XI message is created to send the vendor to SUS.
You need to define a new web service in SRM, with type "List of vendors" where you define the vendor root node, and the calling URL:
http://<server>:<port>/sap/bc/bsp/sap/ros_prescreen/main.do
The same BSP is used for Supplier Directory, but the display is different.
Assign this web service ID in org attribute "Catalog ID".

External Web Service setting for Supplier Registration ROS to EBP

Dear guys,
We are working on Supplier registration scenario where potential supplier are accepted in ROS client and then transferred to EBP via Suppliers Directory.
For this we have defined External Web Service in both clients ROS and EBP
Can anyone tell me what are the Parameters and setting required to define External Web Service?
We have created New Web Service with following parameters in both the clients ROS and EBP.
Web Service ID                     : ROS
Description                          : Suppliers Directory in ROS Client
Bus. Type of Web Service               : Lost of Vendors
Display Partners Data Again in Vendor List      : X
Vendor Root Node                     : 50000620
Use Error Log                         : X
Use HTTP GET to call Web Service          : <blank>
Codepage of Service                    : <blank>
Technical Type of Service               : <blank>
Logical system                    : SRDCLNT300 (EBP Logical system)
Path for Symbol for Service               : <blank>
Define Standard Call Structure with following Parameters
1        <blank>     http://erpdevsrci.egat.co.th:8010/sap/bc/bsp/sap/ros_prescreen/main.do
          URL
2        HOOK_URL      <blank>     Return URL
Please correct us.
With this setting system does display the Suppliers Directory option in Supplier Screening (Suppliers Directory in ROS Client), however after selecting suppliers directory instead of listing the accepted supplier to transfer to EBP, system displays the same suppliers Prescreen again with no option to transfer accepted supplier to EBP client.
I think I have not set the External Web services setting properly ..
So can anyone send me the correct web service parameter setting?
Regards,
Sandeep parab

Ramki/disha,
I have defined following setting in external web services in EBP client
Web Service ID    : ROS
Description: External Web Service in EBP
Bus Type of a Web service : List of Vendors
Display Partner Data again in Vendor List : X
Vendor Root Node : 50000620 (this is Vensor Root node in EBP client)
Use Error Log : X
Use HTTP GET to call Web Service : <blank>
Codepage of Service: <blank>
Techinical type of Service : <Blank>
Logical system : SRDCLNT310 (this is ROs client from there supplier will be transfered)
Path for symbol for service : <blank>
Standard Call Structure Parameter setting as follows
1. <blank> http://....ros_prescreen/main.do URL
2. sap-client 310 fixed_value
3. sap-username dineshp fixed_value
4. sap-password GAJANAN fixed_value
5. HOOK_URL <blank> Return_URL
6. ~OkCode ADDI fixed_value
7. ~target top fixedvalue
8. ~caller CTLG fixed_value
Also defined ROS external web service as default CAT attribute in the organization setting.
Maintained ROS client in SAP_BBP_STAL_STRAT_PURCHASER role.
Created New Users in ROS as well as EBP and tried the scenario. still it failed to transfer the supplier from Ros to EBP.
Where can we debug the error message?
Regards,
Sandeep

Supplier Registration - Is it possible to push new created vendor in SRM?

Hi SRM / SUS experts,
We are defining Supplier Registration processes and had a question with regards to it. After getting supplier information through forms and questionnaire, let's say I approved it and then converted it to Vendor in SRM. Then, is it possible to push newly created vendor back to ECC? I see (database) icon to push vendors to ECC in monitor Business partners transaction, but it is disabled. I am thinking since I have not set up XI integration with ECC, the icon is disabled.
Will you please share your experience with this functionality?
If it can be pushed, then which account group will it take when it is created inECC and which views are created (General data views?)? Is it created under same number as SRM business partner?
Your inpur is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chandra

please refer to the following SAP help for more details on the Montior Business Partners --> and what can be done there
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm50/helpdata/en/e6/4b4b3c99c53c33e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
--> you have to open the tree --> Business Partner Monitor..
and for the option --> to be enabled --> to transfer to backend -> it is looking for two flags
1) Xi should be active in your system
and please refer to the following code --> which decides wether the backend transfer should be enabled (or) disbaled...
technically i know where it happens
transaction se38 --> enter --> LBBP_SUPP_MONIF05..
find the code which starts with -->

Supplier Registration in ESourcing ( Vendor integration with ECC or MDM )

Hi All,
SAP ESourcing has the functionality of Supplier Registration. As per the functionality, Supplier will provide all the required information in the registration form. The Supplier form will go for approval to the Buyer / Purchaser. Once approved, the supplier will considered for RFx event. My questions are :
1 :Is there OUT OF BOX standard solution provided by SAP for integration of newly Approved supplier / vendor of ESourcing system with ECC so that system will automatically create new vendor in ECC.
2 : Is there OUT OF BOX standard solution provided by SAP for integration of newly Approved supplier / vendor of ESourcing system with MDM (Master Data Management system ) .
Please through some pointer on this ?
Regards,
Kalandi

Hi Kalandi
For your first question, if you deploy standard integration package provided by SAP for e sourcing-ECC integration, you can replicate approved e sourcing vendor to ECC using standard script (I think script name is "Publish to ECC" ).
In case you prefer a custom option,you can write a customized script to get a flat file (.CSV) download of e sourcing vendor whcih can be used to update ECC
As far as OUT OF BOX standard solution provided by SAP for integration of newly Approved supplier / vendor of ESourcing system with MDM (Master Data Management system ) is concerned, there is no standard solution provided by SAP but again since it is possible to get a CSV export of vendor field, it can be used to update MDM as well
Hope this helps!

Query related to supplier registration

Hi,
During the supplier registration process can we rate the supplier based on the questionnaire which they have completed and submitted, means is it possible to convert the data i recieve from the supplier in the questionnaire to numberic format and then decide whether to approve or reject the supplier considering it as supplier rating.
Please advise.
Regards
GGL

it would be something like this, Try this
1 localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean Local Enterprise Bean swaptxt
2 localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean Local Enterprise Bean trans3
3 localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean Local Enterprise Bean swapxml

6 localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean Local Enterprise Bean trans1
7 sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean Local Enterprise Bean mail
swapxml -> swap.keyName -> payload-name
swapxml> swap.keyValue> file2
swappdf -> swap.keyName -> payload-name
swappdf> swap.keyValue> file1
trans1> Transform.ContentDescription>file1
trans1> Transform.ContentDisposition>attachment

Supplier Registration without SUS or XI?

Can I do Supplier (Vendor) Registration without SUS or XI? If not, what are my limitations?
I am using SRM server 5.5, and am not using CCM as the supplier directory. I am not using questionnaires. ROS_SELF_REG works. However, I cant notify vendors via email of acceptance. Because I dont have SUS, I cant use SRMSUS_SELFREG and SRMSUS_SELFEDIT, correct? To do User Registration, can I use ROS_SELF_EDIT?
How is workflow WS10000209 (Approving External User Master Record) used?
I appreciate any feedback.

Hi Scott
It's difficult to give a reply hre, but let me give it a try...For more details, try the links given above by other friends.
You do not need SUS for Self-registration.
COnfig
1)Create another client for ROS.
2)Create RFC destination for EBP system in new client. Similarly, maintain RFC dest for ROS client in EBP system.
3)Maintain backend systems for ROS system in EBP and EBP system in ROS.
4)Configure some product categories (need not replicate from ERP) to be used during registration.
5)Configure the IMG settings for Supplier Self-registration (they are easy..just go through them once.
6)Configure SCOT settings (check notes 455140) for outbound & inbound mails.
7)Maintain org plan for purchasing org (ppoma_bbp)& vendor group(ppomv_bbp). No need for elaborate org plan like in EBP...just simple org plan.
8) Maintain table BBP_marketp_info (Txn:SM30)
9) Activate ROS_SELF_REG, ROS_prescreen etc ROS services in SICF
10) Maintain client and logon info in ROS_SELF_REG service (SICF)
11) In EBP client, maintain SAP client parameter for role SAP_EC_BBP_ST_PURCHASER for BSP link preselect suppliers (right click and change node details).
12) Maintain catalog call structure settings in EBP client IMG for the ROS supplier directory. The URL shd be taken from ros_prescreen attributes in ROS client.
Process:
1) With the service ROS_SELF_REG, a partner can register. System creates a BP (prospect) in the ROS client.
2) An email is sent to the given email id
3) Fill the attachment and click 'send survey' button. An email is sent to the system and system copies the survey response to the registered business partner
4) From EBP client, click on preselect suppliers. System launches the ROS client registrations listing screen.
5) Check the suppliers registered, check the data and accept/reject the supplier registration
6) Accepted suppliers data can be pulled into EBP through 'Maintain Business Partners' transaction and create supplier (bidder/vendor) in EBP client.
Hope it helps
Best regards
Ramki

Supplier collaboration and Supplier registration

Hello ,
Has any worked on supplier collaboration and Supplier registration scenarios .
I need some documents on the above topics.
It would be of great help if some one could send these documents on this .
Regards
Jassi

Hi Jaspinder,
As per ur last mail query.
The Supplier Collaboration and Supplier Registration these two scenarios are comes in the picture when ur talking with Supplier or involving Supplier for the decision making process.
1) For Supplier Collaboration we need to configure PDP with SI and Service Procurement and CCM.
2) For Supplier Registration comes under Strategic Sourcing scenario.
You will get the configuration guide for the same at the Service market place.
Please award the points if it helps u in resolving the issue.
