Unable to create follow on documents in SOCO

Hi all,
We are on SRM Server 550 SPS: SAPKIBKT05
Once I click 'propose source of supply', it takes me to the next screen showing the proposed SOS's in a subscreen.
Below this, is another subsreen with three tabs. Currently I do not see anything here? No items.
Any idea what problem could it be? Do I need to activate BW report templates? Or is there something else??
Thanks.
Ali

Hi,
BW reports don't cause it. They will be used for reporting vendor evaluation etc.
There are few things to make SOS to work:
- material and services must exists in COMMPR01
- in COMMPR01 Conditions tab must be filled with proper values eg.
- Ctyp = 01PV
- Vendor = 332 (Business Partner number)
- Ammount = 34,00
- Currency = EUR
- Valid from = 25.10.2006
- Valid to = 31.12.9999
- in COMMPR01 Relationships->Vendor tab:
- Business Partner = 332
Save document.
These values will be show in SOS. In Overview of Sources of Supply will be vendor no 332.
Please check if Your IPC is work correctly in SPRO->SRM->SRM Server->Cross-Application Basic Settings->Pricing->Check Technical and Customizing Settings for Conditions
Please look at SAP note 881265, 778253 too.

Marcin

Unable to create follow-up document in Portal

Hi,
We are using NetWeaver Portal 7.0 and it is at the latest SP(SP10).
When we are trying to create a follow-up document for an opportunity all the fields are getting grayed out and we are unable to create any follow-up document.But from GUI we are able to create it successfully.
Also we are unable to create any sub-opportunity for the existing opportunity
Both the above were possible when the portal was on lower SP(SP8)
Does this issue have anything to do with the SP upgrade or could there be any other reason.
Any inputs on the above issue would be of great help.
Thanks and Regards,
Vijaya Sai.

Hi Chen,
The problem the you are facing mostly occurs due to incorrect assignment of roles. The user id that is used in the EP needs to be present in the CRM backend system as well. The CRM Backend user has to be assigned to the corresponding single role.
Portal user needs to be assigned to a Portal Role.
Kindly have a look at the following document which will give more
information on the role configuration.
Please find the related documentation under:
-> http://service.sap.com/crm-inst
-> People-Centric CRM Inst. a. Config. Guides (on the left side tree)
Kindly have a look at the guide for CRM 5.0
This will give a clear picture on how to set up follow ups. Hope this helps. Please let us know incase you need more information on the same.

When copying pic from iPhoto 09 to a file, to burn a CD, after 35 photos it stops copying and I get "Unable to create/users/dividrublesr/ documents/I don't know what is going on.

When copying pic from iPhoto 09 to a file, to burn a CD, after 35 photos it stops copying and I get "Unable to create/users/dividrublesr/ documents/I don't know what is going on. Forgive me for any mistakes, I am a first timer.

Given that the file is selected then the next possibility is that you're exporting two files with the same name. When you do this the export breaks down as the second file would overwrite the first. Check the filenames.

Newly created follow-up document is inactive

Hi Forum,
I have just created a follow-up document for my service order and created a target transaction as another serv order document through copy control.
The target Service order is showing in the create follow up documents in the main menu, but it is inactive, rest other follow up documents for the source service order transaction are active.
Please help me by letting me know how to make this follow up document active.
Another workaround that i have checked in SAP help is that we have made this in the same organisation unit.
Regards,
Amit

Hi,
Have you maintained all the copy control settings like
1. copy control for transaction types
2. copy control for item categories
3. copy control for target transaction and item categories
Also check whether the permitted channels is not maintained for the target transaction.
Hope this will help

Problem in creating follow-on document (RFQ) for a bid invitation.

Hi Experts,
We have an issue while creating follow-on document(RFQ) for a bid invitation.
Process is as follows :
We have a bid invitation and sent it to two vendors. After this, created two responses one is accepted and another one is rejected.
Now the accepted bid is ready to "Create follow-on Document(RFQ)". But when we do this, the bid with rejected vendor also including in the follow-on document. This should not be the case.
The follow-on document should include only the accepted bid, but not the rejected bid.
Could anyone tell me how to achieve this ?
Thank you very much in advance.

As far as I understand, what you described is the standard behavior. ALL undeleted vendors are copied over to the follow-on RFQ regardless if their bids have been rejected or not. What you can do is to implement BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI for BUS2200 and explicitly remove the vendors which created rejected bids. Make use of the header field "copy_of_guid" to identify the originated RFQ.

Create PR as follow on document in SOCO

We're on SRM 5 WAS 7.00. and following support packages.
SRM_PLUS 550 0015 SAPKIBK015
SRM_SERVER 550 0015 SAPKIBKT15
Overview
We've a special requirement, to create PR's in the back end system instead of PO, from the SOCO based on some special conditions. A BAdI has been identified for this purpose "BBP_TARGET_OBJTYPE". Using code from the standars implementation the conditions have been fit in.
Question.
When creating PO from the worklist in the SOCO, the BAdI is triggered and "TARGET_OBJTYPE" is set to PR. Once the program has executed the new screen shown is title says "Bid Invitation" and an error message " You have either failed to select an item, or you cannot create a follow-on document due to an error that has occurred". I tried looking for it on sap notes but no luck.
Activated debugging, and in there I found that the PR no. is generated and there is no messages in the transfer process either
-> CL_BBP_SC_TRANSFER_SOURCING.
Any hint to what the problem can be ?

Please check the documentation for the BAdI. It clearly fulfills my requirement. I have identified, that the standard screens 4001 of program BBP_SOCO_UI_ITS has some drawbacks, like it does not cater for the change of labels, etc...
Moreover, the screen is in a modified/active status instead of active status.
Using Business Add-In BBP_TARGET_OBJTYPE you can define your own criteria for determining the target objects in the backend system.
As standard, the target objects are created according to the settings in Customizing, see Define Objects in Backend System (Purch. Reqs, Reservations, Purch. Orders).
The type of the target object is then placed in the field CT_ITEM-PACK_OBJTYPE.
The following object types exist:
Object type Meaning
BUS2093 Reservation
BUS2105 Purchase requisition
BUS2012 Purchase order
Then the BAdI BBP_TARGET_OBJTYPE is called up.
Using method
DETERMINE_TARGET_OBJECT_TYPES
you can determine the target object depending on other item data (or any combination thereof) and overwrite the field CT_ITEM-PACK_OBJTYPE.
Ensure that you choose logical combinations. For example, you cannot create a reservation without a product number.
Example
The system has determined via Customizing that a purchase order is to be created. However, you prefer to have certain users restricted to creating purchase requisitions. Then you overwrite field CT_ITEM-PACK_OBJTYPE with BUS2105.

Creating follow-up document in actions

Hello all,
               I need to create a followup document in actions with specific process_type (transaction type) and channel type (category example: in-call , email..)
              Now, I am able to pass my transaction type as an import parameter but not the channel type. Does anyone know how to create followup document with specific transaction type and channel type.
thanks in advance
ark

Hi Ark,
you can copy the BAdI implementation COPY_DOCUMENT. In action customizing assign your copied implementation (don't forget to activate it) in the processing details of you action. There you will also find a button for maintaining processing parameters. Add one parameter for the transaction type and one for your channel type and set the values for them.
In the BAdI implementation add the following parameter:
data: lv_new_header type crmt_object_guid.
copy document
CALL METHOD lc_action_execute->copy_document
    EXPORTING
      io_appl_object     = io_appl_object
      ip_application_log = ip_application_log
      ip_action          = ip_action
      ip_preview         = ip_preview
      ii_container       = ii_container
      iv_actiontext      = lv_actiontext
    IMPORTING
      EV_NEW_HEADER_GUID = lv_new_header   <==========
      rp_status          = rp_status.
Now you have the GUID of the copied document. The table lt_container contains your channel type. Read it out of the internal table and then call the function module crm_order_maintain in order to set the channel type.
Hope you are a bit familiar with crm programming, otherwise this might become sligthly complicated.
Cheers, Ralf

Error in creating follow-on documents after shopping cart is approved

Hi,
After the shopping cart has been approved by the concerned approver and the when the staus is checked in the check status application , it shows 1 error in process i.e. no follow-on document is created in doing so.
Thanks and regards
Sachin

Dear Sanjay,
Thanks for the reply. I have made all the settings , but I am getting an error in the check status application for the shopping cart that has been approved.
Well first instead of getting into the PO that are created in the backend system, let us consider the documents that are to be created as a result of categories that are local. I have maintained a range for local PO's.
I need to know whether any extra procedure needs to be carried out so that PO be created i.e I am not using the sourcing application as of yet and presume that the
POs are created (i.e. the follow-on documents are created on it's own,) .
I have my own local purchasing group for an organisation. It there are any setting please let me
know. PLease note that I am getting the same error as for ones while shooping cart that involve backend systems.
Thanks and regards

Backend contract without Mat no. unable to create Follow on doc in frm SRM

Hi SRM gurus,
We are in SRM 5.0 release using classic scenario. We have created contract in backend SAP but does not contain a material number (MATNR), only short text/description (TXZ01
). This contract is uploaded to CCM successfully and SRM requestors are able to shop the item via catalog ID. However, upon SRM approval of the shopping cart, the status is "approved" but no Follow on document is created in backend. During test, we have activated the tracing BAPI_PO_CREATE1 but it seems that workitem does not go through the FM.
We have also noticed that in COMMPR01, since no MATNR exist from backend, the short text does not replicated.
Can you pls advise how can we create a Follow on document if shopping cart has been raised from a Catalog but only containing short text description. PRODUCT ID does not available.
Thanks,
Madelyn

Hi Madelyn,
Its difficult to tell the exact reason why the shopping cart has not created any follow on document in the back end.
Please look at the following for resolving this issue :
1. In SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > Cross Application basic settings > Define objects in the backend system
Check whether this setting is properly defined or not.
2. Check in SLG1 & RZ20 (Application monitor) for any errors to get a clear picture.
3. Try to create a SC w/o referringa contract and check whether it creates any follow on document in the back end or not.
Also try creating a SC by referring the same contract but not through CCM.
Since there is no material obviously you don't find anything in COMMPR01. Check in COMM_HIERARCHY whether the product category for which the contract was created is shown under the R3MATCLASS (Material Groups)
Hope this will make you more clear and helps in resolving the issue.
Award points for helpful answers.

Create Follow-up document from Service Contract automatically while saving

Hi,
In CRM 4.0, under the Service secnario, Service Data for Service Contract is related to --
1. Interval value
2. Period
Based on these parameter values how to generate the corresponding follow up documents automatically while saving the parent doucment(i.e Service Contract).
For ex, Interval = 6 , Period = 36, then all the 6 docs should be genarated at once while saving the Service Contract.
Please Advice.
Regards
Deb

Hi
Yes , manually executing the Action through PPF.
But the requirement is to generate the subsequent docs at once while saving the Service Contract i.e the corresponding Action should also triggered automatically.
Please Advice.
Regards
Deb

Unable to create a sales document

Hi frns,
while creating sales document (order) an error poping up saying No customer master record exists for Sold to Party.. Pls advise how to solve da above
regards,
kk

There is a possibility that a Customer Master record is not created, or if it is created, it may not be created in the required Sales Area. Please create Customer Master Data in XD01 & after that create Sales Order. It certainly shoule create Sales order. Also check your configuration for SD:
SD Configuration:

IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Sales and Distribution -> Define, copy, delete, check distribution channel
4. Assigning Distribution Channel to Sales Organization
This assignment ensures, a Sales Organization can supply Materials to Customers through this Distribution Channel.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution > Assign distribution channel to sales organization
5. Maintaining Division
Division is a way of grouping materials, products, or services.
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Logistics - General -> Define, copy, delete, check division
6. Assigning Division to Sales Organization
IMG -> Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Distribution -> Assign division to sales organization

11. Defining Common Distribution Channels for Master Data
Use
The purpose of this activity is to define distribution channels which have common master data..
Procedure
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu -> Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Define Common Distribution Channels
Transaction Code: VOR1
12. Defining Common Divisions for Master DataUse
The purpose of this activity is to define distribution channels which have common master data..
Procedure
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu -> Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Define Common Division
Transaction Code: VOR2
Pricing Procedure
In SD, Pricing Procedure is determined based on Sales Area (Sales Organization + Distribution Centre + Division) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure. Sales Area is determined in Sales Order Header Level. Customer Pricing Procedure is determined from Customer Master. Document Pricing Procedure is determined from Sales Document Type / Billing Type (if configured). Once the pricing procedure is determined, Condition records are fetched. If appropriate condition records are found, the price is determined. If Mandatory pricing condition is missing, system will through an error message.
In SD, the steps to configure Pricing procedure are as under:
Step 1:
Condition table: If existing condition table meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition table. Considering the requirement for new condition table, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Table (select the required fields combination, which will store condition record).
Step 2:
Access Sequence: If existing access sequence meets the requirement, we need not create a new access sequence. Considering the requirement for new sequence, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Access Sequence (Access sequence is made up of Accesses (Tables) & the order of priority in which it is to be accessed. Here we assign the condition table to access sequence.
Step 3:
Condition Type: If existing condition type meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition type. Considering the requirement for new condition type, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Type. It is always recommended to copy an existing similar condition type & make the neccessary changes. Here we assign Access sequence to Condition type.
Step 4:
a. Pricing Procedure: It is recommended to copy a similar pricing procedure & make the neccesary changes in new pricing procedure. Pricing Procedure is a set of condition type & arranged in the sequence in which it has to perform the calculation. Considering the requirement for new Pricing Procedure, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Maintain Pricing Procedure.
b. Pricing Procedure: After maintaining the pricing procedure the next step will be determination of pricing procedure. Configuration for determining pricing procedure in SPRO is as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Determine Pricing Procedure.
5. Condition record: Condition record is a master data, which is required to be maintained by Core team / person responsible from the client. During new implementation, the condition records can be uploaded using tools like SCAT, LSMW, etc.
Normal Sales Order Cycle:-
Step 1: Sales Document Type
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
Sales Document Header:
1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
Sales Document Item:
1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category
Schedule Line:
1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.
Step 2:
IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >
1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.
Step 3:
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >
1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.
3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.
The configuration differs from scenario to scenario & requirement of the client.
