UNSPSC mapping with Product categories

HI Experts,
Can any one let me know why we use UNSPSC mapping in SRM.Once we map it do we need to do any setting in SRM.How it works.
KNowledge points will be appreciated

Hi Subbu,
You can map UNSPSC category to your product category using bbp_catalog_transfer BADI

Product categories Central contracts as SOS in SC

Hello,
We are implementing SRM 7 Level 9 with extended classic scenario.
We have created central contracts with items with Products categories only.
Those central contracts do not appear when the requester has selected the same product category in the shopping cart item.
We see no IMG activities for this. What can we do?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I have set up several central contracts, each time with one contract item with one product category. It means we have only ONE criteria.
Contracts never appear in SC SOS tab.
It works well with classic scenario (I can grab all contracts I have in ECC against the product category).
Does ECS require more than one criteria to automatically assign the contract to SC item? Because we want to run ECS here.

Hierarchy - Product Categories

Hello everyone!
I´m starting to prepare the environment to start working with CRM standalone (no integration with R/3).
I need some help/tips/materials/etc on how to created Products, Hierarchies with product categories, etc.
I am reading the ConfigGuide C09 (Central Master Data Standalone). I believe there is a gap between items 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 because I have no products created yet. Do I have to create a base hierarchy first? How?!
I appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks,
Luis.

1. Create Hierarchy First, you can do so by transaction comm_hierarchy.
2. Create Categories under the hierarchy in step 1.
3. Under the categories created under step 2 add the settypes you want to use in your Product.
4. Start creating product under the categories created in step 2 from transaction commpr01.
Without creating Heirarchies & Categories one will never be able to create a Product.

UNSPSC Code Mapping with Local Material Group

Hi Experts,
We are on SRM 7.0 SP05
We are trying to map UNSPSC Code with R/3 Material Group, which has been replicated to SRM. We have maintained the mapping table for UNSPSC with SRM Material Group.
We are using the BADI BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER to change the UNSPSC with a corresponding material group and are modifying the internal table enriched_item_datacategory_id field. Though we are able to successfully change it in the BADI but the changes are not reflected in the shopping cart. Does anybody know why this happens? Is there an OSS note to resolve this problem?
Appreciate your great help
BR,

Muthu,
We have not done anything with MDM but as for CCM, I can tell what we have done...
In IMG: Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server --> Master Data --> Content Management, you can define your schemas and mappings.
When shopping through a catalog, make sure the SCHEMA and the UNSPC are passed in the OCI stream. If your scemas and mappings are straight-forward, then no addtional coding is required. However, if this is not the case, addtional coding in BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER may be needed.
I have seen in the forums that many have recommended custom tables and mapping code in BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI. However, I like to stick to standard as much as I can.
This may be simplistic, but I think it will help you get a idea on the CCM side. Sorry I could not help you with MDM.

Determination of G/L using Product Categories

Hi,
I'm looking to load the full UNSPSC tree into SRM, but from my testing, after mapping the level 1 product category to the various account assignment types and the relevant G\L accounts, I cannot see the G\L mapping for the lower levels (2-4)of the product category when creating a shopping cart. Should the lower levels inherit the same G\L account to account assignment mapping as level 1 or should i use a BADI to define a different logic for determining the G/L account?

I can confirm that when mapping G/L account to Product categories using the UNSPSC schema, by entering 1* all subordinate levels of that UNSPSC code will also adopt the same G/L mapping.

Price Lists in SD on Product Categories

Hi !
I have the following business scenario;-
Product Category: A with products:-
A1, A2 , A3 etc
Product Category: B with products:-
B1,B2,B3 etc
The basic prices(condition type:PR00) for the products in category A are in the range:
Rs 10,000 - Rs30,000.
The prices for the products in category B are in the range:
Rs 40,000 - Rs60,000
The products from both categories are supplied to the same set of customers.
Can we create price lists in SD to map this scenario, particularly based on the product categories?
Thanks.
Edited by: Shamik Sengupta on Jun 11, 2008 1:05 PM

Dear Shamik Sengupta
In material master under Sales: sales org.2 view, there is a field *"Material pricing group".*
In IMG Path -- SD --> Basic Functions --> Pricing --> Pricing Control --> Mintain Price Relevant Master Data Fields --> Define Material groups. Here create some group according to your requirement and assign it in the material master as cited above.
Now assuming that your condition is PR00, in V/07, maintain the table 029 so that your requirement can be met.

External Requirements and local Product Categories

Hi all,
please could you assist:
We are running SRM 7 with several ECC backends in ECS.
We would like to transfer ext. requirement from one backend to SRM (via BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER).
No problems so far.
Prerequisites:
Product categories should only be maintained local in SRM (no r3MATCLASS).
Idea for Solution:
Use of BADI PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2 and BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI to use the internal product category for replicated materials and for the Inbound external requirements
Questions:
If we now transfer an external requirement from ECC to SRM (including a product), how does SRM behave (STANDARD)?
Is it mandatory to obtain the replicated product in SRM including the backend product category?
That would mean, we have to replicate the product categories from ECC as well and could not map the incoming requirements to "our" SRM interlanl product categories?
Any experience concerning standard SRM checks for external requirements?
Thanks and best regards
Andreas

Problem solved
We have just mantained local product categories.
Replicated products (from ERP) are automatically switched to these local categories

Issue in Color Theme on the map with ADF geographic components

I am facing an issue in bringing up a map using color theme .I can able to bring up a map with color themes using geographic components feature in ADF.
The problem here is 'Edit Color Map Theme' dialog which lists Map Theme in five categories like continents,counties,countries,states_abbrev,states_names.
we had implemented map using Color Theme based on the states_abbrev and found it was working properly.
But after some days we found that the settings we made to work for the map no longer works and resulted in no color theme on the map being displayed on the page.
It was found that the states_names works properly instead of states_abbrev by that time.
But again after some days it didnt work with state_names and we revert back our code to follow state_abbrev so as to get the desired result.
Does somebody know where is the problem and how to approach this issue?

Quick Install is gone.
Database repair doesn't work.
Color coded categories is gone, and as you've discovered Theme colors are gone.
Print to Excel is gone.
Many desktop clients that worked with 4.2 do not work.
It won't work with legacy devces.
and others.... There are lots of complaints about 6.2 scattered around the forums. Personally, the HotSync manager keeps forgetting the connections I've set, and goes to default views.
You aren't missing much of anything, IMHO.

Runtime-Error after deploying a mapping with the generated script

For example a very easy scenario:
1. Create a table and a view in a DB-schema, witch ist registered as WB-target-schema with the following scripts:
create view v1(c1) as select 'a' c1 from dual;
create table t1(c1 varchar2(1));
2. Import the table and the view into a OWB-module
3. Create a mapping ‘m1’
4. Drag and drop view and table into the mapping
5. Draw an arrow from the view-column to the table-column
6. Save and close the mapping
7. Mark the mapping in the ‘Design Center’ and klick the ‘Generate’-Button
8. Save the generated script ‘M1.pls’ to file
9. Run the script in SQL*Plus, connected with the target-schema (without using the Control Center Manager)
=> very easy right now ;-)
10. Start the mapping with the following script will produce the following error
SQL> declare
2 v_status varchar2(100);
3 begin
4 m1.main(v_status);
5 end;
6 /
declare
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "OWB_OWN.WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL", line 1027
ORA-06512: at "SCOTT.M1", line 2048
ORA-06512: at line 4
If i delete or comment the four WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL-calls - it work´s fine!
But is this a good advise?
What exactly does the wrapped package ‘WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL do?
Thanks
jwehner

I just ran into the same problem myself. I used the same technique of saving the generated OWB script to file and then compiling it through sqlplus. When I used the "Deploy" option for the mapping, then the problem went away. So when OWB is deploying the code it seems to be setting something internally that doesn't get set when you simple compile the PL/SQL. I don't know of any workaround to this. I will need it eventually, since I don't want to use the UI to deploy to various test environments and production. Maybe the built-in scripting language is the way to go.

ABAP report for Active Product Categories by Vendor

Hi,
I have been trying to write an ABAP report in SRM to list all vendors attached to active product categories. My problem is identifying the active product categories. Can anyone help me identify these?
Regards,
Conor

Some alternative is in KSB1 (Cost center line item report) - you can change the layout and include offsetting account and its text.
But, in vendor line item report, if you want vendor number, vendor number, GL account number (offsetting) account and its text, then you should go with abap development.
Have a look at the following note, if really serves your purpose.
Note 1504612 - Line items: Offsetting account info (BAdI FI_ITEMS_CH_DATA)

Report to pull multiple Product Categories/Organizational Units per project

Hi Experts,
We are facing the following issue.
We have created a Project and have associated multiple Product Category & Organization to this project, many to One relationship. This we have achieved through customization. When we are pulling report for this project through Reports-> Project Summary Extract. Itu2019s giving us only one Product Category & one Org Unit per Project. The business wants us to pull all the Org Units & the Product categories associated with the Project, when we are displaying the report. This org units & product categories will be shown in Org Unit & Product category columns respectively separated by commas.
Looking forward for your help.
Thanks,
Ritik

Hi Vikram,
We have not created any custom fields neither for the Product Categories nor for the Org Unit/Business Unit(T1.BUSINESS_UNIT_OBJECT_NAME). These two fields are already there in the Result fields for the report Project Summary Extract . I am just looking for some way to pull all the Product categories & Business Units associated with the project in the Product Categories column & in Business Unit column respectively separated by comma or show it as in example 2 given below(in multi rows).
e.g. 1:
Project:     Product Categories:
PROJ1   -> PC1,PC2,PC3
Or
e.g. 2:
Project:      Product Categories:
PROJ1        ->                           PC1
PROJ1     ->                    PC2
PROJ1     ->                             PC3
I have already copied the existing query & modified it to achieve the above, but still this is not working. Currently i am querying FCI_MAS_INTERNAL_CAT for Product Categories & FCI_PRO_PROJECTS for projects.
Can you please provide me any sample query to achieve this functionality. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ritik

Mapping with R/3

Hello Friends,
I dont have Material Fright Group in CRM to map with R/3 Mat Fright group, which is available in MARC table. How can i map this field in CRM. This field i want it for Pricing . Please let me know how can i achieve this.
Regards
Satish

Hi Dinesh,
As you don't have any structure readily available for your new data to sit into CRM, you need to enhance the corresponding table with extra field.
There after you also need some data structure to bring this data into your system, i.e. CRM system. Data in CRM system is brought using mDocs.
Thus you need to enhance appropriate product mDoc with new field.
Also you need to populate the new field with data, then and then data will be saved in the CRM system.Thus, you also need to implement Middleware dataexchange badi to fetch the data from respective table in R/3 and fill it in the newly created Zfield of mDoc.

Registration of Suppliers to New Product Categories

Hi,
As we have seen, during registration of new suppliers, system offers a list of product categories to select. System sends questionnaires related to the selected product categories, to prospective supplier's email ID. The supplier submits answers to these question. The buyer will scrutinize the details, registers him as supplier and also maintains supplier list for the product categories which he has requested.
Now the supplier is interested in some more product categories. So he has to select some more product categories. The system should send him a questionnaires for those product category. The buyer will scrutinize the answers submitted by the supplier and maintains supplier list for those product categories.
How to map this scenario in standard SAP?
Ganapathi

Hi Ganapathi
Nikhil is correct.
i assume that supplier want to register some more product category which is not in the system . sorry if i understood wrong.
or it is just understanding between buyer and supplier.
There is no fixed rule that whatever supplier register the product category and he will receive the PO or contract.
It is understanding between Buyer and Supplier what type of product category supplier expert to do service for the purchase organisation.
Whatever product category is existed in the ROS system the same only can be registered by the Supplier.
Because purchase organisation uses only some product category which they wants for their organisation.
For ex
step 1:-BREAKS product category - TVS registerd in the ROS system and become supplier
step 2:- again TVS supplier want to add WHEELS product category ? and expects a questionaire for WHEELS from the Purchase organisation?

Cannot see list of Product Categories in Shopping Cart entry screen

Hi All,
I would appreciate it if someone could help me with this issue.
Although I appear to have sucessfully replicated the backend R3 Mat Groups into SRM Product Categories, as I can see them in the hierachy screen, i.e. Hierachy ID R3MATCLASS in trans code COMM_HIERARCHY, they are not appearing in my Shopping Cart entry screen Product Categories drop down.
I have looked in Org structure maintanance and can see two things that may be the root causes:
(a) In 'Exended Attributes', if I select the Source System, I do not get the option to list the product categories in the match code box
(b). In the 'check' screem, the system is displaying the message 'Attribute ITS_DEST not yet defined'
Any feedback on how I can pull in the groups during cart entry would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Kathirvel,
I am not sure if this workaround is correct, but rather than using trans code BDLS as you suggested, I defined the logical system 'ABC' . This logical system was the assigned as a target system in 'Assignment of Logical Systems' under the product category customisation (table COMV_LOGSYS_MAP)
These changes subsequently allowed the drop down on the Org structure when selecting a Product Category in extended attributes, therefore making the list available in the web front end.
The IMG help text for COMV_LOGSYS_MAP says:
Case 1
You have created the categories in your test system. They therefore have the logical system <SYSTEM_TEST>. So that the categories can also be changed once they have been transported into the production system, the categories must have the logical system <SYSTEM_PROD> in the target system.
Maintain the following entry:
Source <SYSTEM_TEST>
Target <SYSTEM_PROD>
The logical system of the categories will be changed from <SYSTEM_TEST> to <SYSTEM_PROD>.
This appears to have resolved the issue. I would be interested to hear what you think,
Many thanks , Steve,
