Confirmation Control Key

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We run SRM 5.5 EC and the backend is ECC 6.0. we have two different Org structure in SRM and when one of the Org tried to confirm a PO they get the message " No good recipts possible for purchase order XXXXXXXXXX yyyyy". What we have found is that over in ECC they made a change to the Vendor Purchasing Data for the Confirmation Control. It was changed from blank to 0003 for inb.deliv./rough GR. This is causing an issue when our 2nd Org in SRM tries to put thru a confirmation on a indirect Purchase Order from the SRM side.

We tried to make a change over in ECC to the Deadline monitoring to make the confirmation contol key as an Opt. Enty, but that does not seem to resolve the problem. According to the text message that we were able to follow the message M7036 indicates "For confirmation control for the order items to be carried out, a confirmaion (shipping notification) must have been received. This has not yes been entered".

Any help in how we can control or configure this issue would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam

Hello.

I think I am not 100% understand the business scenario, is it a classic or extended classic scenario?

From MM point of view , GR is not possible if the confirmation control key is asking for a inbound delivery . This is

customizable in the customizing.

The confirmation control key could be determined from inforecord or entered manually.

From SRM point of view , if it is extended classic scenario , please check the PO related document tab, if the shipping notification is on. This flag is from supplier master.

If you wants to change the flag when SRM PO is transfered to MM , please consider BADI .BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI

Thanks Summer.

We are extended classic (EC), I'm not sure what MM is, but I assume that it is for the ECC system or Backend system. I will follow-up on your suggestion, but if you can think of any other solutions that would be helpful if we can make a config change VS a badi change.
