Purchaser Log in the cockpit but without BW system

[Former Member]

hello All

I want to track the purchaser foot prints in the cart in the sourcing cockpit arena.

for eg. in the cockpit purchaser what he enetered . when / what action he did.

for eg . in the cockpit , i have a sc with product category STATIONARY in the cockpit as a purchaser he taken the sc in to work area and purchaser dont use propose a source of supply for searching a contracts since i ahve many contarcts . but purchaser manually eantered a different contract manually ( but that contract has a different product category PENCILS ) and purchaser created a PO with PENCILS contract rather than STATIONARY .

why SRM system not validating product category of SC and Contarct manually entered by a Purchaser

SRM should validate whether this contract is applicable for this sc material group or not.

now PO created w.r.t PENCILS contract.

I wanted to extract a report what buyer entered because there is no log contract in the BBP_PD .

Hi Muthu,

Once the data is copied to PO from SC (from Cockpit) while creating a PO.

If buyer / purchaser can edit the copied data in PO and If he changes the product category in the PO other than SC.

As per the SAP SRM Standard Functionality

1) System always over rides buyer edited data over copied data in the PO ( I Mean priority for purchaser edited data). This is logical also. because, the SC creator may not have complete knowledge on the Prodcut category and purchase data like Purchaser / Buyer has.

2) System always check the prodcut category used in PO with the Prodcut category used in Contract. Not with the Contaract Prodcut Category V/S Shopping cart Prodcut Category.

Hope this clears your querry.

Thanks

Hi

I have two questions here

Q1 .I wanted to know what actions are done in the cockpit - like black box information are recordered the pilot actions when aeroplane crashes . we can trace what is the finl conversation between control room and pilot from the black box right. i am searching that black box.

Q2. when purchaser manually assigned inrelevent contract by typing contract number and srm should validate whether purchaser entered a wrong contract or ot and whether it is relevent to sc data or not.

Kiran try this one?

Hi Muthu

Some time back I had asked same question to few experts...but no log/or trace available for this. These changes are just runtime.
