Creating Vendor thru GUI in SRM from ECC

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am on SRM 7.02. My requirement is to create the vendors in SRM from ECC instead of webdynpro application.

But BBPMAINTINT transaction is posing problem as it is to be used in web browser only.

Can Anybody suggest a way out?

Hi Amit,

BBPMAININT is an old Transaction which was designed to be used via ITS using Business HTML. You can start it in SAPGUI if you terminate "SAP Easy Access" first by typing /n into the OK-Code Field. Once the Screen is blank except Button "Start SAP Easy Access" calling BBPMAININT is possible.

But I cannot recommend to do that. BBPMAININT is an old up to SRM 5 Transaction and is no longer maintained. So the results from using that Transaction might be incorrect.

Dear Oliver

Thanks. Can you please let me know what is the new transaction in place of BBPMAININT?

Hi Amit,

there is no new transaction as SRM 7 is based on WebDynpro ABAP and doesn't need transactions anymore.

Since I don't know why you need a SAPGUI based transaction and cannot use the Web based application I cannot suggest a proper alternative.

Dear Oliver

Thanks for your reply. Since there is a need to develop a new application for automating vendor replication from ECC to SRM ,we are forced to go for this option.  As soon as vendor is created in ECC, vendor is to be replicated automatically in SRM.

Please help!

That is fine and I guess you know ABAP BBP_VENDOR_SYNC which normally does this Job. But there is no Transaction available.

Have you consifered to use function modules BBP_CREATE_CONTACT_PERSON / BBP_CHANGE_CONTACT_PERSON ??

Hi Amit,

are the vendor's already created in ECC?

If yes there is one Tcode in SRM for replicating the vendor.

Please let me know so that i will explain you the further process.

Dear Amit,

Have you checked with BBPGETVD  tcode for replicating the vendor.

You have to give the vendor no. Source system, Purchasing grp, Currency .

Check the below link for further reference. Please let me know if you have other issue.

Dear Nishant

Thanks for your prompt reply again.

Actually first we are using BBPGETVD to replicate the vendor and then BBPMAINTINT for creating contact person for that vendor. BBPGETVD is fine but when we run BBPMAINTINT thru GUI application, system throws an error that this can be run only thru web browser.

So we need some bypass of BBPMAINTINT.

Dear Amit,

I don't have server for testing . I think this transcation  BBPMAINTINT is used for updating the same vendor into multiple organization. We had created the abap program for extending the vendor to the purchase organzation.
