PPS Activation in SRM 7.0

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are in Process of Implementing PPS (Public Sector Procurement) functionality in SAP SRM 7.0

Do any one have implemented the PPS in SRM7.0, If so, Please help to confirm the below query,

By implementing PPS, will it disrupt the existing scenarios like Self service Procurement, Sourcing etc... ?

We have only one Dev instance and hence we want to confirm by activating PPS doesn't

disrupt the scenario's like Self service Procurement, Sourcing and etc ..

Please confirm,

Thanks in advance,

Best Regards,
Appu

Hi Appu,

There are important things to consider before activating PPS:

1. PPS can only be run on ECS scenario (Extended Classic Scenario);
2. SRM one client scenario is not supported;
3. Confirmation and Invoice cannot be created in SRM side, only in the backend (ERP);
4. An important thing to note here is Service Procurement should not be

        active when PPS is active as it will lead to undesired effects in many

        PPS functionalities like Pricing Arrangement,Hierarchies etc

        ie in SPRO > SRM Server>Cross-Application Basic Settings>Service Procurement

        Service Procurement (in this node no entries should be maintain as is maintained for MM-SRV    scenario or Service Procurement).

I hope this can be of help to you, if so please don't forget to give the concerning SDN points

Cheers,

Melina
