Vendor Replication and Different Back-end Systems

Hello,
Currently, we have vendor replication were the vendor number from the back-end is used in SRM-EBP. Now, we want add another back-end but there are vendor number conflicts. Is there a way to configure it so that the new back-end replicaition generates new numbers in SRM-EBP?
Honestly, there should be a cleansing and alignment of vendor numbers between the two back-end systems. However, that is big task that the organization doea not want to take on at this time.
Has anyone encounter this issue and how did you resolve it?
Regards, Dean.

Hi,
You can find option "If R/3 number assignment is not possible: Internal number assignment" in the bottom of BBPGETDV transaction screen.

Can two different SRM clients systems connect to one R/3 Back-end system?

Hello,
Trying to developing SRM Co-Exist/Global strategy, based on the following scenario:
1. Two different SRM client systems, each at DIFFERENT SRM Version/Release Level. SRM system "A" runs in Stand-Alone and Extend Classic Scenario mode. SRM system "B" runs in Classic Scenario mode
2. Two different R/3 back-end systems, each with SAME R/3 4.7 Version/Release Level.
Question 1: Can the two (2) different SRM client systems be connected to one (1) of the R/3 back-end systems?
Question 2: Are there any Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) issues/difficulties to consider from either the SRM client or R/3 back-end side?
Question 3: Does each SRM client need it own unique transaction document type(s) and number range(s) definitions?
Question 4: Are there any other difficulties, for example, with RFC and Partner Profile related definitions and what are the steps to address/resolve difficulties?
Please advise and thanks in advance for your feedback!
Regards,
Ed

Question 1: Can the two (2) different SRM client systems be connected to one (1) of the R/3 back-end systems?
They can be connected
Question 2: Are there any Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) issues/difficulties to consider from either the SRM client or R/3 back-end side?
Make sure that you have unique consumer entries for Middleware for Material replication, RFCs etc
Question 3: Does each SRM client need it own unique transaction document type(s) and number range(s) definitions?
Yes you need to have them.
Question 4: Are there any other difficulties, for example, with RFC and Partner Profile related definitions and what are the steps to address/resolve difficulties?
Don't see any difficulties as long as the a structured approach is followed.

Role mapping between Portal and Back end systems

I am new to SAP EP.
I just want to know how the mapping between portal and back end system happens.
Scenario : There is a role in ECC system...say FI India. Now there is a request by the FI team that they want to access this role from Portal. In this case, please tell me how the security team will do it. Because I guess, it has to be done by the security team.

Hi,
Usually the role from backend is uploaded to portal then it will be seen as Group and we need to assign our portal roles to this group. Please refer [this|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/d6/7859ec80df46738e23ccb4f4c8c502/content.htm].

Client Copy back-end system

Hi Guys,
We have made a client copy of the back-end system of SRM (SRM 5.0). Only the back-end and not SRM has been copied.
After replication all the master- and customizing data again to SRM from the 'new' back-end I have found an issue with updating the suppliers.
It seems that I can not remove old business partners from SRM with BUPA_TEST_DELETE if these are used already in SC's. However the new copy of the back-end system has completely different suppliers we need to use in SRM. This causes for an inconsistency with the supplier numbers, as we want to keep the R/3 numbers in SRM.
Does anyone has a good idea how to proceed? That is, how can I remove the business partners (suppliers) in SRM which were used before the client copy of R/3, so that I will be able to completely get all the relevant 'new' vendors from the R/3 system after the client copy.
When I execute BUPA_TEST_DELETE it will end up in error saying the suppliers can not be removed. Do I need to archive all the old documents (SC & PO) before I can remove all vendors in SRM, or is there a way to force the removal of all the business partners from before the back-end client copy?
Thx.
Skander

Hi,
I already figured out how to solve the issue.
For anyone who wants to know how to:
-First clear the vendor groups in the vendor hierarchy; do not renove the root node
-Then run BBPGETVD which will get you the new vendors from the back-end; for me only role LF for suppliers.
-Then run BBPUPDVD which will update all the fields for the old business partner numbers in SRM which were used in documents, and replicated from the old back-end system.
In my case I had to play a litlebit with the setting 'only creditors', to update BP numbers which were not suppliers in the new back-end.
After performing these steps everything should be fine.
So it's perfectly possible to make a client copy of only the back-end system without copying SRM (in the classic scenario that is).

Error : No valid R/3 Back-end system

Hi CRM gurus,
I'm trying to connect SAP CRM 5.0 to SAP ECC 5.0.
When I launch trx R3AS for downloading the first object of the list coming from Best Practise (DNL_CUST_ACGRPB), I am getting the above error: "No valid R/3 Back-end system."
Now the point is that RFCs work smoothly, administration console as well and R/3 view CRMRFCPAR was filled correctly.
Where is the problem? I'm looking into, but without results.
Any suggestions in this issue will be rewarded.
Regards,
AndreA

Many thanks Praveen,
I have carried out all the checks in the tables and it seems that everything is fine!.
Creating a RFC Destication for CRM in R/3

I don't really know where the error could lay.

Hi
there are following things you can do
1. log on to your SAP Router
2. check entries in SAPRoutab.
3. Telnet SAPSERV2 (Sap responding server) (Tcode oss1 will give you details of which SAP serve you are connecting ) on port 3299
4. if you are able to telnet SAPserve from your Router server then raise the call to SAP and ask whether they can reach your saprouter or not
5. check /etc/services files and check for service 3299 defined or not
6. telnet local Router server with port 3299
7 try to download Sap Note from SNOTE in you solman system.
all the best

Value for customized fields didn't get copied to back end system

Hi,
We are in SRM 4.0 and using extended classic scenario.
We have defined two customized fields in account assignment tab in shopping cart and SRM Po and also in back end PO.
SRM POs are having values for the field but while transferring the Po details to back end system, for some of the line items of the Po the entries are missing in back end system.
Problem is only with few line items of the PO.
Have tried with FM like BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC and BBP_PD_SC_RESUBMIT, but it is not transfering the values to back end.
Is there any other way to push the missing values to back end system.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Sk,
Table adjustment has to be done accordingly. Get in touch with your Basis team.
Thanks.

Two SRM systems connected to One back end system

Hi..
Note: I have posted this message earlier ......but couldn't find that. I am just reposting the message:
In our quality environment, we have two SRM and two backend systems. One for testing purpose and other for training purpose. We are planning to remove one back end system and connect both the SRM systems to one backend system.
1. Is it possible to have this landscape?
2. In SRM & R/3 we can define two RFC connnections but from R/3 side, I am not sure how the system will determine the respective RFC connection during GR or any other process.
3. Are there any other difficulties?
We are in SRM 4.0 using Extended classic scenario. We are using SRM for processing shopping cart, Po and confirmations.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Hi Prashanth,
is very much possible.
for this you need to configure the partner profiles.
need to define port
need to configure inbound paramters and outbound parameters.
we20 - create partner profiles.
define outbound parameters and inbound parameters of the message type.
we21 - define port.
under Transactional RFC.
and create a distribution model and add message type.
revert back to me if any problem still you find.

Changing the ABAP Back-End System for the UME

Hi,
I went through many forums; sap notes (943498, 764417, 943602, 940893, 810434) and at help.sap.com
(http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/9e/fdcf3d4f902d10e10000000a114084/frameset.htm)
I am not able to resolve the issue.
Problem: We already have SSO configured between Portal (EP7) and backend R/3 system (ECC 6) which is working fine. Scenario is that we have dual maintenance system going on. Now we want to move our SSO configuration for Portal to point to new R/3 system, which is exactly same except different server name (same SID, system #, using same ports on different servers). Here is the catch service file for both R/3 system have same service name and port number defined.
R/3 current: sapmsXXX    3601/tcp
R/3 new sys: sapmsXXX     3601/tcp
Will this be causing hte problem or could be something else.
Thank in advance for your inputs!!

Hi Patel,
It seems that the portal cannot attach backend system via load balancing.
1- Can you access to port# 3601 on 156.44.162.55 via telnet, from your portal system?
2- Did you checked your firewall settings on both systems?
Best regards,

Had to change my Apple ID because the original email address is no longer valid. How do I change the iCloud user name on iMac? I found instructions about signing out of iCloud and signing back end. It asks questions about contact, etc.

Had to change Apple ID due to email address no longer valid. Trying to change id for icloud...saw direction online about signing out of icloud and signing back in...when it ask questions about contacts, photos, etc. being deleted how do I answer those? That just sort of freaks me out.

For the ones that give you an option, select the option you want (keep on the Mac or Delete). For the ones that are simply warning you, click on Delete from Mac.
They will all come back when you sign back on, since all you did was change your existing Apple ID to a new email address. It's the same iCloud account, just with a different name.
It's the only way to get your updated ID signed onto iCloud.

Vendor replication and exchange documents from SRM to SUS (using PI)

Hi Gurus,
We are implementing scenario plan driven procurement with suppllier collaboration on SRM 7.0.
Our architecture involve:
A server machine with SRM 7.0 (SRM server and SUS components both in this machine)
A server machine with Netweaver PI 7.0
A server machine with EP 7.0
A server machine with SAP R/3 4.6C
Now we are working on vendor replication process in order to carry out vendors from R/3 to SUS (on portal enviroment) and we made following steps:
- Replication of vendor from R/3 to SRM by mean tx BBPGETVD: OK
- Replication of vendor from SRM to SUS (on portal enviroment) by mean tx BBP_SP_SUPP_INI:
In this step we put the BP (created with tx BBPGETVD) on field "Supplier" but we obtained the Message no. BBP_XP004
"No vendor allowed for vendor portal"
So we want to know, in connection with mentioned architecture, the way to perform this activity in order to replicate the suppliers in SUS.
Is possible perform activities related to exchange documents (by mean Netweaver PI) between SRM and SUS (as necessary for our implementation scenario) if these mentioned components are installed and configured on the same phisical server machine?
What is the best recommendation about installation of SRM and SUS? A unique server machine or separated server machines?
Is there any inconvenience or technical reason having SRM and SUS in the same server machine?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Horacio

Hi Nikhil,
Thanks for your soon response.
Our process involve PR and PO manual creation in MM and then PO (with ALE message type) is routed to a supplier in SUS via XI. We could achieve that steps succsesfully.
We don´t have in scope neither use SRM for sourcing nor PO creation (via IDOC) in MM.
In connection with my previous explanation; Would you say that our process is MM-SUS?.
If yes, can I follow the steps mentioned in below link described at point u201CProcess Flow Without Supplier Registrationu201D?. What´s the difference between creating and replicating bussiness partner data?.

Till now I have configured the SSO between the Portal and the target system. But Now I am confused with how to proceed further for achieving this scenario.
Please help me ...
Thanking you in advacnce ...

Hi Premkishan,
Check this weblogs
Quick Guide for setting up SSO between EP and R/3
Connecting SAP systems to Enterprise portal with SSO.
You have mentioned that SSO configuration between portal and backend system is done. So you are almost done with CRM part.
You can download the ESS/MSS package from SDN and import into your portal.
This you can get it from SDN. Click on downloads from the top level navigation in sdn. A page is displayed. Click portal content portfolio. In the right hand side panel you click on list of packages. From there choose your correct ESS and MSS package and Keyword search option enter that and search. You will get the downloads.

Catalog vendor having different vendor number in different R/3 system

Hello Experts,
We are in SRM 7.0 classic scenario and we are facing an issue as described below:-
We are using a punched out catalog which has different venor number in different backend system.We have 2 R/3 backend system say R/3 sys1 & R/3 sys2.
Vendor No for the Catalog vendor is say:-
Vendor No     R/3 sys
V123              R/3 sys1
V567              R/3 sys2
We have connected the R/3 sys2 just a week back.We have replicated the catalog vendor number V567 from R/3 sys2 into SRM system and we are able to successfully create a Shopping cart in R/3 sys2 using catalog.
However,we are facing a problem and the problem is that,
When we create a shopping cart in R/3 sys2 using catalog,by default we get a message that "Vendor V123 is not intended for plant"
We are able to change the vendor from V123 to V567 in the portal,but we are unable to understand why the vendor V123 is picked up as a default catalog vendor.
Can you all experts,plz help us understand why this vendor V123 is picked up as default vendor and how we can ensure that Vendor V123 is picked up when we are creating SHC is system R/3 sys1 & vendor V567 is picked up as default vendor when we are creating SHC in system R/3 sys2?
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
RKS

This means for same Product Category (and same material ID) coming from your Punch-Out catalog, you can create a Purchase Requisition in R/3 sys1 OR R/3 sys2 ?
If i am correct, how can you manage in your catalog two vendor numbers for same Product Category (and material ID) ?
I guess only one vendor number (V123) is maintained in your catalog. That's why, even if your management rule is to send your SC to R/3 sys2, you will have always vendor V123 as the default one, as it is the only one in your catalog...

Unknown supplier in back-end system

Hi to all,
i'm trying to restore a testing system in SRM.
When i'm creating a purchase order, the error in object appears. The supplier is all ok in R/3 and SRM and is correctly opened into purchasing organization.
On my opinion, it seems something about link between R/3 and SRM (parameters i suppose...but which??).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Christian

Hi Christian,
Can you check the backend mapping ID in your SRM supplier, or look in table VENMAP, to see if the R/3 vendor ID linked to the SRM supplier is ok ?
