External Requirement in ECC 6.0 EHP 4

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Can we configure external requirement (plan driven procurement) with out PI/XI on ECC 6.0 and EHP4.

Because I read the configuration guide it's not clear. Still sap support old method like configure profile on table V_T160PR,V_T160EX .

Thanks

Hi Laasya,

I am working on ECC 6.0 (Ehp 4). I dont think it is possible to configure 'Plan Driven Procurement' without using XI/PI.

We use the standard scenario i.e. 'Plan driven procurement with Supplier Enablement'

Ok.. So in your scenario SRM will not be used right....

But in the below forum Tim said it's possible...So I'm not sure.....

Hi Laasya,

I have gone through that thread multiple times even earlier. But all I could gather from Tim's postings is that you can implement Central contracts without PI using ESOA.

But for plan driven procurement, how will you get POR, ASN etc from vendor without using PI?

Hi,

But we are only using Plan Driven Functionality for Sourcing and Contract. It means once PR created in ECC transfer to SRM for Sourcing, by selecting vendor through RFx process create Central Contract in SRM transfer copy to ECC.
