Purchasing orgs in SRM

[Former Member]

Hi

I would like to create a new purchasing org and a few purchasing groups in SRM; in extended classic scenario.

Do we create the purchasing entities in ECC first and replicate this to SRM?? if so how do we replicate? is there any automatic replication?

Or do we manually create the entit in both the systems. Do we need to give a backend reference in SRM?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It's a good practice to first create the Enterprise Structure in ECC. From SPRO settings you can create the Org Strucutre. Once the Org Strucutre is created in ECC then you need to create the same org stucuture in SRM. Only plant needs to be replicated from the R/3 System, rest you need to create it manually.

Under Entereprise sturcute you will find Defination and assignment. So create the Org Structure as per client request and report "BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_SELECTED" you need to run this in order to replicate the new plant created in R/3

Once this is done you need to create the Org structure manually in SRM.

If you want to replicate the org strucutre from HR System then please have a look the below SAP Notes 550055 ,934372

Hi,

You can create Organization structure manually in the PPOMA_BBP transaction.

HR Organization replication is also available.

For backend reference, please check the IMG document for "Activate Extended Classic Scenario".

Hi Masa

Many thanks!!

Does the HR organizational plan replication allow purch grps replication as well??

We have the extended classic activated.

I was wondering if we can create a purchasing group in MM and then replicate this to SRM. or do we have to create both seperately.

Thanks!!

Hi,

No replication for only Purchasing Group. The Purchasing Group in MM is just like Master Data and no relationshop with other objects.
