[Former Member]

Hi experts

Could be some bug or some configuration is missing?

Thanks

Hi,

Please, check if in SPRO -> ... -> Define sourcing for product categories, if you have maintained a * for product categories. If so, check the help for this topic. It says:

"You can specify the product category generically by entering *. In this case, the source system field also remains blank because no unique assignment is possible."

If you are maintained each product category individually, just delete the line and insert it again. It is possible that category GUID has been refreshed. So, doing this you are updating the product category GUID.

Kind regards,

Ricardo

Hi,

Please do the following SPRO setting

1 )Define Sourcing for Product categories

Category ID : *

Source system : R/3 Logical system

sourcing : Sourcing Always carried out.

2) check in the SRM browser in the product category the material is there.

Check whether material is replicated from R/3 to SRM

Eg : Material No :ABC

ABC should be there in the Product categories.

3) do the setting in R/3 -Tables : V_T160PR & V_T160EX

Now you try to create the P.R and run the report :BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER

It will go. no issues

now where the carts are lying ?

if you did sourcing. it will venture into cockpit for sourcing.

now respective buyer can assign the vendor and create a PO from cockpit.

Sourcing is common for all scenario.

Solution

Question:

Why has my shopping cart not come to the Sourcing Cockpit ?

Answer:

Whether or not a shopping cart/external requirement goes to the Sourcing cockpit depends on the customizing SPRO settings for Define Product Categories for Sourcing (see attachment).

Here there are the following options:

Sourcing Always carried out

Sourcing Never carried out

Sourcing carried out for items withour Assd Source of supply

Aut. creation of Bid Inv for items w/o source of supply

Aut. Grouping. Sourcing for items withour source

Aut. Grouping, sourcing is never carried out

Aut. Grouping, and creation of Bid Inv w/o source

The technical field to check is : BBP_PDIGP-SOURCE_REL_IND

Question:

What do the different sourcing indicators mean ?

Answer:

These are the possible sourcing indictators:

X Item is sourcing relevent and will appear within the sourcing cockpit

Y Sourcing is complete

C Clearing, this should not appear on the database and only during runtime

A, D Grouping/ Grouping - Bid

N,M Request for quotation SC/SOCO

T Temporarily not changeable, because this has a follow-on document

See note 979476, Report BBP_CHECK_SOURCING_FLAG

Sourcing flag is updated with BBP_PDH_DB_DIRECT_UPDATE
