Pull/Request a Purchase Requisition of the SRM

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

we are struggeling a little bit with the PR to RFx Scenario in SRM. At the moment this is how it works: We create a PR in the ECC System, then we release it, and afterward it is sent to the SRM System where we can create an RFx out of this PR.

What we want is, that the is not sent to the SRM System becuase ECC pushes it into SRM. We want to enter the PR Number into the SRM System, and at this point the PR is requested in the ECC and will be sent to the SRM (so the SRM pulls it out of ECC), because we sent a requested out of the SRM? Do you have an idea how we can do that?

Big Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards

To stop the ECC PRs from being pushed into SRM automatically, you just have to stop the background job that carries the ABAP report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER. You can write a custom report in SRM that pulls the PRs from ECC to create either SC or RFx by first looking into the EPRTRANS table to find qualified PRs. This can be done via RFC calls. I am not sure if SOA interfaces exit for this purpose.

Hi

if you dont want to do PDP scenario

better remove t160ex and t160pr entry so that EPROFILE will not be set and eprtrans will not filled .

i understand that in srm 7 it is CPPR which is used to send PR to SRM and there are two option 1) manually pull the PR and create a RFx 2) Automatically based on condition of material group & purchase group the PR is sent to sourcing cockpit.Udo needs to know how to use the 1st option choose the PR required and convert to Rfx

Thanks & Regards

Step 1: Ensure that SAP Enhancement Package 4.0 business function LOG_MM_P2PSE_1

is ON.

􀁸 Goto transaction SFW5 and expand node u2018Enterprise Business Functions

􀁸 Activate the switch LOG_MM_P2PSE_1

You can get the complete documentation on business function _ LOG_MM_P2PSE_1 by

clicking on the information icon under Documentation highlighted in the above

screenshot.

Step 2: Create Implementation of BAdi ME_REQ_SOURCING_CUST. Refer to Appendix

section 5.1.1 for complete details.

Step 3: Activate event type linkages for external sourcing

􀁸 Go to transaction SWETYPV in SAP ERPsystem.

􀁸 Check that the following entries are present

bus oBJECT BUS2105 RFXREQUESTED WS38800009 NO ERROR

bus oBJECT BUS2105 SOURCING REQUESTED WS38800009 NO ERROR

If it is not present then copy the entry for event u2018Createdu2019 for object type u2018BUS2105u2019

and Receiver Type u2018WS53800009u2019 and change the event name.

Note

Workflow event RFXREQUESTED is used to trigger XML message while creating SAP

SRM RFx from Collective Processing of Purchase Requirements (CPPR).

Workflow event SOURCINGREQUESTED is used to trigger an XML message while

transferring the Purchase Request (PR) as an external requirement to SAP SRM

Sourcing.

If you do not see XML messages getting created, verify that steps 3-5 are properly

configured.

Step 4: Activate outbound messages through qRFC

􀁸 (ERP) Transaction SPRO -> Other mySAP.com components 􀃆 Supplier Relationship

Management 􀃆 Message Control 􀃆 Activate outbound messages through qRFC

􀁸 Check that following entries are present:

BUS2105 RFXREQUESTED QUEUED REMOTE FUNCTION CALL

BUS2105 SOURCING REQUESTED QUEUED REMOTE FUNCTION CALL

Hi Udo,

your way of expressing the issue is bit confused to understand.

could you please let me know which implementation scenario you are working on ,which version of SRM?

As per my understanding u r trying to transfer a PR to SRM from which you can create a RFX is this correct?

please provide few detials on that so that it will be easy for the SRM experts to reply your thread

HI Subhash,

sorry for confusing you...

We have SRM 7.0 SP5 and wie try to use the Classic Scenario.

At the moment the ECC pushes the messages directly into the SRM, when you release it on ECC. What we are looking for is that the SCM pulls the Purchase Order out of the ECC. So that the Porchuse Order can be modified as long it was not pulled.

Udo still not clear.

since

PDP scenario

PR WItHOUT fixed VENDOR AND WITH MORE THAN ONE SOURCE OF SUPPLY - so now you need to identify the best vendor so it can to SRM ( pr converted into sc) . so now buyer needs to identify best vendor among 10 vendors for eg. so he needs to create a bid invitation.

- IF YOU dont want to create a Bid Invitation , you can cOMPLETE THIS SHOPPING CART. SO CART WILL BE DIED AND BURIED.
