Workload Redistribution 'ReportingWorkload' Link

Has anyone been successful at activating the 'reporting workload' link on the Workload Redistribution (redistribute workload) transaction? If so, can you provide information on what this provides the user? Screen shots would be great too if possible, or even just a high level description of this functionality once it's activated.
Is a link to BI/BW required to activate/utilize this functionality? If you could also provide steps on exactly how you were able to activate this in config that would also be very helpful.
Please note that OSS note 835696 is not applicable to us since we are running SRM version 5.0 SRM_SERVER 550, support pack 7.
Thank-you!

Hi Natasha,
the report gives an overview of the workload = scs/bids/contracts, per PGroup /
POrg, etc. There are several filter options. Based on the report, responsible
persons have an overview of the workload and can "redistribute" work items to an-
other person in SRM. Via the SAP Business Content available in SAP help, some
details to the reporting can be checked out.
You need to have BW available and done the necessary config. Specifically to
activate the link, the settings in "SRM Server → Cross-Application Basic Settings
→ Define Logical Systems and Template Names for BW Reports" need to be done.
Thanks,
Claudia

Where is the workload redistribution link in SRM 7?

Hi,
I can not find the workload redistribution link that I use in srm 5 to change the purchase group of one SC or resdistribute the SC to other User.
Is in any role? or is a program or service.
Thanks.

Status 'in process' and 'complete' in workload Redistribution

hi expert.
In the workload redistribution, we found there are two status : "in porcess" and 'complete''. i do not know what's mean about them. and affect what ?
thanks in advance.

Hi Deepthi,
You can look for the "job log" status for the jobs in your process chain. For job logs use sm37 transaction an find the relative db table.
Hope this helps.

SRM 7.0 SP05 - Workload Redistribution functionality

Hello,
Up on using the Workload redistribution functionality in our system the system dumps (strategic purchaser). The workload redistribution transaction does open initially but upon triggering the: search help / execute search via button or undo entries button the system dumps. It triggers the following error: 'User session (HTTP/SMTP/..) closed after timeout'.
- Does the 'Workload redistribution transaction' work in your system, could you test this?
- Is BW set-up required to run this transaction, does this functionality utilize BW?
- The customizing transaction 'Define Logical Systems and Template Names for BW Reports' is not available. How come? Is this transaction available in your system?
- Any possible solutions are very much welcome
Kind regards,
Tim

It seems that after using and waking up the functionality and letting the system rest it started to work. I don't know what that is but I guess we should be happy it's working after all.
Thread closed, question answered.
Kind regards,
Tim

Workload Redistribution not chaning purchase group

Dear SRM Experts,
We are running SRM 5.5 If you run the manual workload restribution, the system responds back and says "update completed successfully". Howerver, when you look at the shopping cart it is not changing the purchasing group to the new one (i.e it is not performing the redstribution despite the system reporting back that it has done it. What could be the cause of this?
Kind regards
Pedzi Mutapiri

Hello Pedzi,
Your issue can be raised due refresh problems. Check note 1493400 (WKL: No refresh of the document list after redistribution).
If this note can not help you, please also take a look on the following note:
1294817 - Warning message when no organization data is entered in WKL.
This one is about any warning message be raised if the purchasing fields weren't entered.

Workload Redistribution - Authorizations

Hi all,
We are running SRM 7.01.
Purchaser when selects shopping carts in Workload Distribution can see every SC in the system. Is it possible to restrict it so that he can only see the Shopping carts of his own¡?
Also, is it possible to restrict to whom he can reassign a shopping cart? Is there any authorization object that can be used for this purpose?
Thanks
Ezequiel

Hi,
BBP_WF_LIST badi can be used to restrict the cart which are derived from the list. You can put the code to avoid other list.
BBP_PGRP_ASSIGN_BADI can be used for whom he can reassign a shopping cart.

Automatic workload reassignment of purchase order

Dear experts ,
My customer need an option for Automatic workload reassignment of purchase group .
We have the rule to determine the purchase group against product group and the price in SC.
Now, we need the possibility to change purchase group in case he was out of office. We want to set the purchaser in status O.o.O and that the SC will go automatically to the replacer purchaser group (We need something such as workflow Substitution function) .
We know that we can use the workload reassignment transaction but this is manually operation.
Is anyone can help us??
Best regards
Gil shinar

Hi Gil shinar
You have two options for changing the assignment of Requirements, Purchase Orders,
Bid Invitations and Contracts to a different purchase group:
1. Automatic Assignment: You can automatically assign these documents
to another purchase group by activating and defining rules in BADI BBP_PGRP_ASSIGN_BADI.
2. Manual Assignment: You can reassign these documents manually by accessing the Reassign Workload transaction.
Workload Redistribution
You use this function to manually assign, or have the system automatically assign, the following documents to the purchasing group responsible for processing them:
RFx
Requirements
Contracts
Purchase orders
Workload is redistributed by users who are assigned the role of Purchaser. Documents are redistributed in background processing.
Integration
Documents may have to be manually assigned for the following reasons:
The person responsible for the given purchasing group is temporarily absent.
The structure of the purchasing group in your organization has changed.
The documents fail the automatic assignment rules.
The rules for the automatic assignment of documents to purchasing groups are not maintained.
If you do not maintain the assignment rule, documents are assigned to a default purchasing group that has to be processed manually.
Note
You can set up assignment rules and rerun the workload distribution to have the system automatically distribute the affected documents.
For more information, see the Customizing for Supplier Relationship Management under SRM Server Business Add-Ins Changes to Purchasing Group and Purchasing Organization Assignments
End of the note.
Prerequisites
You have maintained standard purchasing groups in the organizational plan.
If you want to have the system automatically reassign documents that were assigned to the standard purchasing group as defined in the organizational plan, you must have maintained u2014 or remaintained, as necessary u2014 the assignment in the Business Add-In BBP_PGRP_ASSIGN_BADI.
For more information , see the Customizing for Supplier Relationship Management under SRM Server Business Add-Ins Changes to Purchasing Group and Purchasing Organization Assignments .
Features
Search for Documents
You can use the search to search for purchase requisitions, contracts, RFx, and purchase orders.
Note
Using the Reporting Workload hyperlink in the search, you can access worklist evaluations. For more information, see below.
End of the note.
List of Results
You can:
Sort the results list.
Use the hyperlinks in the column headers to sort the documents in ascending or descending order. Click the hyperlinks in the Item column to view the detailed display for the document.
Select documents from the results list for assignment.
Have the system automatically assign the selected documents to purchasing groups, based on the assignment rules defined in the BAdI BBP_PGRP_ASSIGN_BADI.
You see an overview of the reassigned documents that shows the source and target purchasing groups. The system redistributes the documents among the new purchasing groups in the background, and displays any relevant messages. A success message is displayed when processing is complete.
Manually assign the selected documents to a purchasing group.
Use the input help to select a purchasing group and click OK.
The system displays a list of the selected documents. Here you have the option of deselecting individual documents u2014 these documents are not reassigned. This means you can simulate workload redistribution before the system changes the purchasing groups.
When you have completed the selection, choose Go. The system reassigns the documents to the new purchasing groups in the background, and displays a success message when processing is complete.

Functionality of 'Assign Automatically'

Dear Experts,
What is the functionality of 'Assign Automatically' available in workload redistribution?
St. Purchasing -> Workload Redistribution -> 'Assign Automatically'. I have selected an Bid Invitation and click the above button. Nothing happens.
Worklad redistribution happens two ways
1. Manually, the purchasing manager can assign a work item to a purchaser?
2. Using Badi BBP_Pgrp_Determine.
So, what is the functionality of 'Assign Automatically>
Any input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

REDISTRIBUTION WORKLOAD REPORT

Hi All
have you ever extracted this REPORTING WORKLOAD in the redistribution menu.
What exactly this report gives to the business usuage? assume that i have connected with BW ?
Why BW report shows in SRM box?
How to activate this report:- Workload report is not active? I do have BW system . how can achieve this?
i am in Define logical systems and template names for BW reports.
WORKLOAD_REPORT1 Workload Reporting 0TPL_BBP_PO_Q005_V02
which logical system i should give ? SRM or BW ?
aNY GUIDANCE IS APPRECIATED.
Muthu

Hello Muthu,
BW reports will be shown in SRM Box if the corresponding BW roles for SRM are integrated with SRM roles.
You might to activate the corresponding datasource of this in SRM.
And since you have to connect the source system to BW, I think you have to define SRM system as logical system in BW.

Redistribution of workload

Key Words: Redistribution, Workload, Buyer
Version: SRM 4.0 with R/3 4.6 backend
I was trying out the Redistribution of workload and a issue came up.
A SC was created and approved and a requisition was replicate (or created) in the R/3 backend. The SC and the requisition is assigned to a buyer (Purchasing Group), say buyer 190. Then I logon as a buyer and choose the Redistribute Workload. I pick the SC item and "Assign Manually" the Purchasing Group assignment from buyer 190 to buyer 215. I then rand BBP_GET_STATUS_2 to updated the SC. The SC now has a Purchasing Group of 215. This is expected. However, when I go to the backend and look at hte requisition in the backend, the Purch. Grp is still 190.
What am I doing wrong? What do I need to do? Can Purchasing Group of SAP requisitions be change from EBP?
Thank you,
Naing

Redistribution of workload enhancement

Dear experts,
I have been looking up this matter for quite some while now. We want to enable the user to redistribute the workload at any point of business, such that all follow on documents be assigned to the same purchasing group. The standard transaction does not do this. Any BAdI for such a requirement? Any other solution rather than developing a custom program.
Thanks
<b>M. Ali</b>

Hi,
There is transaction BBPWLRA01 used for redistribute workload for Shopping cart, Purchase order, Bid invitation and contract.
Also, in WEB GUI you can find option 'Redistribute Workload' under Sourcing.

Sashi.
