Limit order items to be sent back to sourcing on deletion

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are on SRM 7.1 Extended classic.

Can anyone confirm if the limitatin on the LIMIT orders not being sent back to SOURCING even after the PO items are deleted is stilll valid in SRM 7.1.???

Also we want to use LIMIT orders instead of service orders in SRM 7 as there are seevral issues when users try creating carts with the SERVICE HIERARCHY.To avoid the manual errors,we would like to use limit orders in SRM and then if required when the PO items are deletd in SRM the items should be sent back to sourcing.

If the limitation for the LIMIT orders items still hold true for SRM 7,then is there a way or enhancement to enable the sending of limit orders back to sourcing once the items are deleted in the PO in SRM?

I know the report responsible for snding items back to sourcing is BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and CLEAN_REQREQ_UP but is there a way we can handle the sendng of the PO items back to sourcing base don some custom logic for limit orders or for that matter any type of PO created in SRM?

Pls advise.

HI,

This is standard behavior as of SRM7.0. Please refer KBA # 1581345 for more clarification.

Sending back to SOCO is based on Quantity of SC items but in case of Limit PO, there will be always qty =1.

Thanks.But is there any enhancement available if we need to have the LIMIT item get back to sourcing?

HI,

I would prefer to open OSS message with SAP and check with them if they can create any note like OSS # 1247922 ( which is opposite of your requirement - Not to send back SC items even there is change in Qty, etc.)

Let everyone know if SAP's any response.

thanks,

The note 1247922 is for EXTERNAL requirements/Purchase requsitions in ECC backend system and is not what I'm looking for.

Neverthless,I will create an OSS message with SAP and check if tehre is any enhancmenet available for sending limit items back to sourcing on PO deletion.Will update the thread accordingly

Thanks for the help.
