Vendor Classification and SRM

Hello Experts,
I have set up vendor classification in R/3 MM for a client. This client is also using SRM. Is it any functionality for vendor classification in SRM and can the settings I have done in backend be transferred to SRM?

Hi
how have you created vendor classification
Is it that you have created number of vendor account group like forwarding agents , transporters , import vendors , local vendor etc.
if yes we can create the same group in SRM manually and assigne them different number ranges which are assigned to them in R3.

create the same account group and assign the same nu ranges and try segregatting them

Vendor deletion in SRM and ECC

Experts,
We are on SRM 5.0.ECS.,
I have read several threads on SDN but none talks about the actual steps of setting the flag for deletion of a vendor in ECC and then updating the chnages in SRM.
What are the steps for setting the deletion flag for vendor in ECC??DOes it need to be done throigh XK06?
Also once the flag is set in ECC,are the changes replicated through UPDVD??Also wha are the updates done on SRM side for that vendor??Is the deletion flag also set for the vendor or the vendor is directly dleted from SMR?????If so which tarnsaction can I check that??
After the vendor deletion happen on both ECC and SRM,what is the message which comes up when we try to create PO with this vendor in SRM?
Also before the vendor is deleted from both systems,is it necessary to close all the old documents(SC and PO) which has this vendor?
Thanks.

Hi,
What are the steps for setting the deletion flag for vendor in ECC??DOes it need to be done throigh XK06?
Yes it can be done by that tcode.
Also once the flag is set in ECC,are the changes replicated through UPDVD??Also wha are the updates done on SRM side for that vendor??Is the deletion flag also set for the vendor or the vendor is directly dleted from SMR?????If so which tarnsaction can I check that??
tcode : BP (Tab Control )
You will see central block for that vendor. If purchasing block is setup it can be seen in manage business partner tcode.
After the vendor deletion happen on both ECC and SRM,what is the message which comes up when we try to create PO with this vendor in SRM?
If central block is there it won't be available in search list. If still user manages to enter the vendor the system may throw up error message. Vendor is blocked for purchasing.
Also before the vendor is deleted from both systems,is it necessary to close all the old documents(SC and PO) which has this vendor?
Vendor is treated as business partner in the SRM. BUPA_TEST_DELETE is used to delete any vendor or business partner. The system itself will issue an error message that vendor can't be deleted. In R/3 its independent.
My suggestion is apart from deletion please select purchasing block.

In which table the link between the R/3 vendor and SRM vendor no are found?

Hi experts,
Can anay one tell me in which table exactly where we can find the relation between the R/3 vendors who are replicated to SRM and material groups which are replicated to SRM.
I just want to know th backend number and the frontend Number of the above two
please help me.
Regards,
Sairam.

Hi Sai,
All the replicated material groups from back end R/3 can be seen using COMM_HIERARCHY transaction as categories.
You can choose category as the search criteria and then click start tab to view all the replicated material groups.
In the VENMAP table you can see all the replicated vendors from back end along with their logical systems from which they were replciated.
Using PPOSV_BBP transaction you can see all the replicated vendors in your Vendor Group along with the vendor code and Business partner number.
Hope this resolves your query. Clarifications are welcome.

Reconcilation of Customer and Vendor from CRM and SRM to 0bpartner in BI

Hi,
I am having customer master data and vendor master data in ECC both represents the same numbers .Ex: 10001 - customer1 and 10001 - vendor1.
I am sending this data from ECC system to CRM and SRM system and again Iam loading this data into 0BPARTNER Infoobject in BW from CRM and SRM systems.
In BW it is messing up, when i do a report on CRM cube it show me the vendor descriptions where i supposed to see customer descriptions .
I can't change the ECC customer and vendor numbers since i need to change all other legacy systems depending on this .
Can any one tell me how to fix this problem and your help is truly appreciated.
Thanks,

BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI - Documentation and LOF (Vendor List) in SRM

Hello experts,
Someone would have details of how to use the badi BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI?
Currently I am with the extended classic scenario and need to activate the classical simultaneously.
Does anyone have any information on how the LOF (Vendor List) in SRM?
Thanks,
Pedro

In BADI BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI you can change standard behaviour
from classic to extended classic. System change from classsic to ext.
classic.
I suggest you to set in customizing "use classic scenario" (without
BADI) customice classic scenario check it and when works ok,
use BADI to use extended as usual except for reservations.

Vendor created in SRM and sent to MM

Hi,
All procurement (only indirect procurement) will be managed in SRM 7 with ECS.
In order to manage vendor request creation with workflow in the portal, we plan to manage all vendor creation in SRM and to replicate it to MM. These vendors will be probably manually completed in MM with FI data.
Did you already experiment vendor managed in SRM and synchonize it to ECC ? I found nothing on this outbound SRM interface.
Rgds
Charlotte

Hi Charlotte,
You are right. There is no standard interface between SRM and ECC to create vendors. Hence you will have to develop a customised solution.
Approach : Create your vendors in SRM as Business Partners -- Push them to SUS client -- Ask vendors to provide you with FI, tax, bank account related info in SUS -- trigger workflow on saving this data -- approve/reject this data -- download data in an excel and create vendor manually from the excel in your ECC system

Data Consistency when Copying/ Refreshing ECC 6.0 and SRM-SUS 5.0 Systems

Hello,
We are planning a refresh / system copy of an ECC 6.0 and SRM-SUS 5.0 system
The refreshes will be completed from backups taken of production systems refreshed onto the QA Landscape.
I have referenced the following SDN thread that provides some guidelines on how to refresh R/3 and SRM systems and maintain data consistency between the systems using BDLS and changing entries that correspond to backend RFC destinations:
[Is there a process/program to update tables/data after System Refresh?;
This thread is fairly old and relates to earlier versions of R/3 (4.7) and SRM (3.0). We have heard that at higher system versions there may be technical reasons why a refresh canu2019t be performed.
Does anyone have experience of completing successful refreshes of landscape that contain ECC and SRM systems at higher SAP versions (ideally ECC 6.0 and SRM-SUS 5.0) Does anyone know whether it is technically possible?
Are there any additional steps that we need to be aware of at these higher SAP versions in completing the copy to ensure that the data remains consistent between ECC and SRM?
Thanks
Frances

I have seen this somewhere in the forum: See if this helps you

Vendor Evaluation and Analysis

Hello,
Where can i find " vendor evaluation and analysis" information from SRM 5.0 datasources. I looked at it and i couldnot find it. Is it from SRM or do we get the data from ECC.
Need your assistance.

Extractor for Vendor Classification as hierarchy

Hello,
The standard don't extract more than one value for the classifcation. Then, I want to extract this data as a hiearchy.
Example R/3:
Vendor Classification
V1 G1
V1 G2
V2 G3
V3 G1
V3 G3
Then, the datasource should create this hierarchy:
G1
...V1
...V3
G2
...V1
G3
...V2
...V3
...V1
¿Could you give me an ABAP code to do this and to create the DataSource? ¿More ideas?

Hello Syed,
Classification data for objects like material or vendor needs to pulled through classification data sources which needs to created specifically through transaction CTBW.
I am not sure whak kind of information you are looking for...but if it is the information about classification then it has to be created.
You can just make a search on classification data sources as there are numerous threads about it.
If its just classification characteristics like vendor type then you can look for master data sources for these objects.
Thanks

Posting Vendor Classification Data using XK02 transaction

Hi All,
I am getting the vendor master legacy data by using an IDoc where in i am uploading the vendor information through transaction XK02. Now i have to enhance that to post the vendor classification information also. There is a function module IDOC_INPUT_CREDITOR, which is modified to a ZIDOC_INPUT_CREDITOR and the changes are made as per the client requirements. Could you please let me know how can i post the vendor classification information along with the vendor information. Let me know under which segment i need to write the code for this. Please share your experiences in loading the vendor master data load along with vendor classification.
Let me know if you need any more information.
Thank You,
Suresh

Here are the fields you need to fill.
BIKSSK-MAFID = 'O'.
BIKSSK-KLART = 'Z10'.
BIKSSK-OBJEK = 'YOUR-VENDOR-NUMBER-IN-INTERNAL-FORMAT'.
You may also need other values concatenated to vendor number if the classification is at company code level or purchasing org level.
BIKSSK-CLASS = 'YOUR-CLASS'.
I am not giving BIAUSP because I think you can figure it out.

Vendor field on SRM Purchase Order

Hi.
Please can someone elaborate and explain why my preferred supplier that I have entered onto my Cart does not copy through to the Vendor field on SRM Purchase Order please? At this moment, the Preferred Vendor field is incorrectly populated whereas previously, only the Vendor field was populated. We have the ECS activated.
Thank you.
Pooja!

Hi
Prefered vendor - if you manually added a vendor - This partner function no. 39.
check your BBP_PD whether you have prefered vendor or fixed vendor in partner head.
Fixed vendor -partner function is 19 like contract ...etc
check these details or your approver might be changed your source of supply if he has access to modify the cart.

Vendor mapping and password resets in EP7

Good day,
This is my first thread, so please bare with me.
I'm currently faced with a challenge regarding Vendor mappings and password resets.
We make use of EP7.0 and Netweaver 2004s for the backend. SRM version is 5.0. We map the vendors in the portal to the relevant backend systems. After setting the passwords for the vendors in the backend, we have to log in with the ID's to hard set the passwords. The vendors are set as dialog users and thus their passwords need to be reset regularly, in our case, every 30 days.
My question is this: Is there a better way of managing the vendor mappings, like for instance making them service users which removes the need to change passwords, as from what I understand, it's actually the vendor groups that are mapped to backend users and not every user that belongs to the vendor group. The users still need to log onto the portal with their passwords.
Any ideas are welcome.
John

If its One Portal User to One backend user, you can eliminate this need of password resetting by configuring Logon tickets.
From what I understood is it that you have many portal users all mapped to a common backend user?

Change Vendor Name in SRM

Can any one tell me how to change the Vendor Name in SRM which is getting replicated from ECC where the name has been change to the new vendor. The new Vendor name is not coming over in the replication from ECC (5.0). Reason for vendor change is that the old vendor was purchased by another vendor.

Our common reasons for Vendors not transferring from ERP to SRM using TCode BBPUPDVD or BBPGETVD are.
1. Vendor does not exist in ERP
2. Vendors email address is faulty
As stated previously SLG1 log usually reveal the problem.
We also have a problem with the scheduled Vendor Sync job that runs each night failing to import new vendors, even though the spro config has been set to include new vendors.
I suspect that the Vendor Sync job my be stopping as soon as it finds a faulty email address and we do have a few hundred of these lurking in our ERP system. I plan to investigate, when I get time, but if anyone else has this problem I would like to here of your experiences?
Hope this helps
Allen
