The Shopping cart not appearing in the sourcing cockpit of the buyer

Hi
We are using Extended Classic Scenario. The SC was created in SRM and then after approval was send to a central buyer for sourcing. The central buyer redistributes the same to the respective Buyer based on the purchasing group. However the SC doesnt appear in the sourcing cockpit of the actual buyer and when I see the details of the SC item in BBP_PD, I see that the Sourcing Relevant Indicator is marked 'Y' which means Sourcing is already completed. But nowhere a supplier has been added to the SC by anyone and it also doesnt reflect in the BBP_PD.
Any idea how and why the indicator has the status 'Y' and how can I make the SC appear in the sourcing cockpit of the buyer.

Hi Manoj,
If the SC is directly converted into a P.O (either ordered / held status) please check the Sourcing settings in SPRO.
SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > Sourcing > Define sourcing for product categories
Check whether sourcing always carried out was maintained for the required product category. The P.O will get directly created in case the setting is " Sourcing never carried out".
Please check this and let me know if this is the case.
Rgds,
Teja

Shopping cart not appearing in users sourcing cockpit for completion

Hi
A user cannot see his shopping carts in his sourcing cockpit in his worklist. He finds them with the find tab but he cannot mark them as complete. The completion check box column is not there. However another colleague can find these shooping carts and the completiong column is there. Why this occur?
Does it have anything to do with where the user is placed in the org. struture? Please advise.
Kind regards

Hi,
seems that the requirement is assigned to a different Pgroup. Therefore one user does see it, and the other one not. When you adjust the assignment in the Org Model, the user will see the requirement.
Check the responsibility and assignment of your Pgroups.
Cheers,
Claudia

Shopping cart not getting released from sourcing cockpit

Hi,
Am trying to release a shopping cart from sourcing, but it's not getting released. Mentioned below are the methods I've tried and area'a which I verified for possible error. The major challenge is it's not throwing any error message. Your inputs & guidance are really helpful & appreciated.
- Moved the SC to workarea in sourcing cockpit and tried creating PO - Failed w/o any error.
- Verified in backend BBP_PD - No error message
- verified in rz20 - No error message.
- Attributes used in SC - Verfied all the major values such as Vendor, account assignment, basic data etc - No issues.
- Tried creating PO creation in backend w/o posting it - able to create PO with same data.
Thanks & Regards
Aswini

SOURCE_REL_IND : shopping cart not appearing in the sourcing cockpit

Gurus,
Few of the shopping carts after deleting the follow-on PO doesn't appear back in the sourcing cockpit. Furthermore, I found the SOURCE_REL_IND set to blank in table BBP_PDIGP.
Since this is happening at random, not sure if I can forcefully push the cart into the sourcing cockpit using any FM.
Thank you.
PS : I tried FM : BBP_PDIGP_DB_DIRECT_UPDATE, but the next run of BBP_GET_STATUS_2 is revoking it back to space.

Shopping carts not appearing int eh worklist of the buyer

Shopping carts that are created by the user are not appearing in the buyer Worklist if he is not assigned to that product category.
Please advice,I need the shopping cart appearing in the worklist of the buyer even if he is not assigned to that product category.

Hi
Under that purchase group any buyers are assigned - check it up
for eg.
001 - product category - ABC -Purchase group - John - Purchaser
in the PPOMA purchase group ABC - responsible product category is 001 and under ABC purchase Group - Assigend John
now John might receive sc if you dont assign any sosurce of supply / if you did sourcing configuration
update here what are the seetings are existed in define sourceing.

Shopping Cart not appearing in Sourcing Cockpit

Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server -> Sourcing -> Define Sourcing for Product Categories
In this config. we have maintained Sourcing as 3. sourcing carried out for items without Assd. source of supply also we tried with 2. Sourcing always carried out.
Yet the shopping cart does not appear in the sourcing cockpit .. a PR is created automatically and SOURCE_REL_IND is set to blank.
Is there any other config. that we are missing for cart to appear in sourcing cockpit.

Hi Saurav,
I had a similar problem and solved in the following way.
Please check the settings maintained in
Define Objects in Backend System (Purch. Reqs, Reservations, Purch. Orders)
- Remove the entries from this table.
- Recreate the entries from F4 Search Help only and do not type.
- Do not maintain wild Cards in two columns ( Purchasing Group or Material Group) At least one entry should exists.
- Test it again with creating new SC.

E-Product and Shipping Product in shopping cart not displaying shipping options. What is the fix?

Found this work around from www.bcgurus.com. Thanks guys!
"You can give your downloads a weight of 0.01 and the shipped items at 1, then on your shipping options give a weight limitation of 1 to 800. Then as long as the items in the shopping cart are above one pound, but under 800 pounds you have shipping. If it is just the media downloads there will be no shipping." - Chad Smith
BC is working on fixing this bug I think!

This doesn't seem to address the fact that downloadable items should have no shipping cost. If you use total shopping cart value to determine shipping cost, this is what happens:
* You have a shipping fee of $5 for all orders between $0-50 and a shipping fee of $10 for all orders between $50.01-100
* You add $45 worth of socks and a $10 ePaper download to your cart
* BC charges you $10 for shipping, even though you're not shipping the ePaper
This is a very common scenario for our clients. We really need a "Shipping Never Applies" setting for products, just like we have a "Tax Never Applies" setting.

Whenever I left-click on a link that should give me a drop-down menu within a page the menu does not appear and I get send to the top (or bottom) of the page.

I suspect I've accidentally changed some setting but I can't figure out which one. I upgraded from 3.6.8 to 5.0 but the problem persists. Please help if you can. Thanks.

SC not in the sourcing cockpit after the follow-on document is deleted

HI,
    In sourcing cockpit , I created a contract by SC , but I deleted the contract , the SC didn't appear in sourcing cockpit. the SOURCE_REL_IND still is 'Y',    I have no way to create new contract by the SC .
   I don't know if it is the standard functionatity, It seem to be not reasonable.
Please tell me the solution that SC can be back to sourcing cockpit automatiocally.
even if I carry out the BBP_GET_STATUS_2. it still don't work.
   Thanks a lot.
Jesse

Hi
the rule is below
sc created 2 qty -- PO created 2 qty -PO deleted - now order quantity and PO quantity difference is there so now SC comes to cockpit and this shopping cart item needs to sourced and PO needs be created.
i did not test below scenario.
SC CREATED - contract or Bid invitation created and now Contract / bid invitation deleted and now you are expecting this sc item comes to cockpit.
Note 1068497 - BBPSC04: Incorrect status for items completed in sourcing
Symptom
You create a shopping cart which is sent to sourcing cockpit. You create a follow-on document. For eg: Bid invitation. You delete the same and complete the item in sourcing. The status of the item in check status is shown as 'Approved' instead of 'Cannot be ordered'.
As per the above note sap rule, even though Bid Invitation deleted and reference shopping cart must venture to cockpit to create another follow on document.in your case SOURCE_REL_IND = Y instead of X. What is the item status of sc after contract / po deleted?

Product category mandatory in the shopping cart ?

Hi everybody,
We are studying shopping carts functionalities in SRM in activating ECS.
We are not using articles, but only product categories. We would like to know if the product category is necessary mandatory in the shopping cart? Indeed, if the shopping cart is related to a simple customer need, the information of the product category is not always known by the requester. He would fill only the description of the request.
Thank you for your help,
Vin

Vinna,
Product category (Material Grops) is mandatory for any shopping cart creation, However in SRM some of the basic configuration setting is based on product category only. Mainly the G/L account is mapped with product categories which is important for account validation in the shopping cart.
Kind Regards,
NMK

HT4259 I have my airport extreme plugged in within range but the device does NOT appear in airport utility (on the left). Please advise.

To extend wifi range, I plugged in my airport extreme within exisitng range but the device does not appear in my airport utility (on the left of the screen). The airport extreme is blinking amber. Please advise. Thank you.

The AirPort Extreme can extend the signal from another Apple router wirelessly, so as long as you have a 802.11n version of the products, the extend function should work.
Please check to locate the Model No of both of your AirPort routers. It will be on the bottom of the device. Starts with an "A" followed by four numbers, as in "A x x x x".
Post back with that info.
We also need to know the version of AirPort Utility that you are using. If you are not sure, click the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About AirPort Utility and post back with tht info as well.

Approved shopping carts not displayed in shopping cart status report

Hi Gurus
we are facing an issue in shopping cart status report. When the approver selects 'Approved by me' in shopping carts status report system is not showing any list. There are number shopping carts approved by the user . Other selection like selection period, status , completed indicator were selected properly. But if the approver selects 'Rejected by me' the system is showing all the shopping carts approved, rejected, and awaiting approval related to the approver.
This is happning with one user only. We had checked user authorization and parameters and every thing is fine . Aslo compared the same with other users for whom this report is working fine . We are in SRM 5.5 extended caassic senario.
Any suggestions/solutions on this
VB SAS

In olden days of SRM , we forcily assign account assignment for PR which do not have accounting data in the PR to create a successful SC in SRM and remove the account assignment while creating a PO in the backend.
but since your in SRM 7.0
and also you made ensure that your PR has account assignment but it is not sitting in the cockpit.
and your shopping card trying to create a PO and failed right?
since it has incomplete data , how PO is creating. How system can create a PO without vendor.

Items in the shopping cart appear with different price than in the catalog

Hi All,
We are running SRM 5.0 (Classic Scenario) with external catalogues.
After selecting items from the external catalogue and transferring them to the shopping cart, the items appear with different price(the problem exists in the productive system)
The strange thing is that there is no dependence or sequence between the differences. For example, in one shopping cart, one item is with correct price, the price of the other item is not correct (when I click on the icon which is showing item details in the catalogue, the price is different than the one in the shopping cart). Sometimes the difference is significant, sometimes not - if the item price in the catalogue is 22.34 EUR, in the shopping cart is 21.22EUR or if the item is 45.62EUR in the shopping cart is 45.60 EUR. There is no logic.
I tried to create a shopping cart in the support system, with the same items from this catalogue, and they are sent back in SRM with the correct prices.
I traced all OCI parameters, sent from the supplier catalogue, and everything is correct.
At the example given below the price in the shopping cart ordered in the productive system is 69.00CZK, and after that during the test the correct price of 73.870CZK has appeared.
NEW_ITEM-DESCRIPTION==Durable-KeyClip-keytag%2C+black
NEW_ITEM-MATNR==
NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP==
NEW_ITEM-QUANTITY==10
NEW_ITEM-UNIT==EA
NEW_ITEM-PRICE==73.870
NEW_ITEM-PRICEUNIT==1
NEW_ITEM-CURRENCY==CZK
NEW_ITEM-NEW_ITEM-LEADTIME==1
NEW_ITEM-VENDOR==
NEW_ITEM-VENDORMAT==0176%2F1957001
NEW_ITEM-MANUFACTCODE==
NEW_ITEM-MANUFACTMAT==
NEW_ITEM-CONTRACT==
NEW_ITEM-CONTRACT_ITEM==
NEW_ITEM-SERVICE==
NEW_ITEM-EXT_QUOTE_ID==
NEW_ITEM-EXT_QUOTE_ITEM==
NEW_ITEM-EXT_PRODUCT_ID==23109
NEW_ITEM-EXT_SCHEMA_TYPE==UNSPSC
NEW_ITEM-EXT_CATEGORY_ID==55121504
NEW_ITEM-LONGTEXT_1%3A132==Durable-KeyClip%0D%0Akeytag%2Cblack%0D%0A%0D%0A6pc
I checked the error log in SLG1 for BBP_OCI, and no error message exists. In my opinion the problem can be in supplier system, because otherwise all items will be with wrong price. And at the moment, there are shopping carts in which all items are with the correct price!
It is not something in the user profile, because in one shopping cart created by one user some items are correct, some of them not.
I also checked with the supplier, they said that they haven't change the price, recently.
Has somebody of you met this problem?
In the IMG-> Define External Web Services (Catalogs, Vendor Lists etc.) I have set all parameters for the standard call structure: the URL of the supplier, our company ID and password for their catalogue.
In the Detail view for the catalogue, the following parameters are set
u201CAdditional functions in the product catalogueu201D field:
-     Display product data again in the catalogue
-     Validate product data from SAP Enterprise Buyer
-     Find supply sources
u201CTechnical Settingsu201D field
- Use Error Log
Thanks,
Desi

That means that we are not maintaining material numbers in SRM, so there are no predefined price or info records for that materials in R/3 system, or in SRM.
In the set up of external catalogues, validation of the price is set. Which means that, if a new shopping cart is created from already existing one, and meanwhile, a change of the price is done by the supplier in the catalogue, the new item price will be adopted in the shopping cart.
No prices are maintained in the SRM system, everything is from the supplier catalogue.

Should the vendor in the Shopping Cart be updated from the Sourcing Cockpit

Hi All,
hopefully an easy question for someone to answer.
When a vendor is assigned in the Sourcing Cockpit and the Purchase Order is created should the vendor be updated in the linked shopping cart?
Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,
All questions are welcome irrespective of the criticality so you are free to ask anything related to SRM.
The vendor will not get updated in the shopping cart if you assign a vendor at the time of sourcing while creating a P.O. The same can be checked out by selecting the Source of supply / service agents link in the check status for a particular shopping cart.
The source of supply field will only be populated when you assign the vendor at the shopping cart level and not during the P.O creation.
Hope this will make you clear.
Rgds,
Teja
