Shopping Cart not appearing in Sourcing Cockpit

[mehul_mori]

Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server -> Sourcing -> Define Sourcing for Product Categories

In this config. we have maintained Sourcing as 3. sourcing carried out for items without Assd. source of supply also we tried with 2. Sourcing always carried out.

Yet the shopping cart does not appear in the sourcing cockpit .. a PR is created automatically and SOURCE_REL_IND is set to blank.

Is there any other config. that we are missing for cart to appear in sourcing cockpit.

Hi Everyone,

I have followed lots of the thread on the similar issue, and i have an issue exactly same as here. My shopping carts/PR are not coming to sourcing cockpit if i have a material attached to it. In the sourcing customization i have maintained product category as * and sourcing always carried out. I went through the notes mentioned in the thread but could not find any possible solution for my problem.

Any help on this issue will be really appreciated. My system enviornemtn is SRM7 with backend ECC6.0 and i have PI as middleware.

Regards

Hi Saurav,

I had a similar problem and solved in the following way.

Please check the settings maintained in

Define Objects in Backend System (Purch. Reqs, Reservations, Purch. Orders)

- Remove the entries from this table.

- Recreate the entries from F4 Search Help only and do not type.

- Do not maintain wild Cards in two columns ( Purchasing Group or Material Group)  At least one entry should exists.

- Test it again with creating new SC.

Hey Mehul,

I am also having similar problem. SCs are not going to Sourcing Cockpit for few product categories. All the product categories are having same configuration.

Any idea how it can be resolved.

Thanks

FOR new product categories , you need to register them in the define sourcing for product categories so that your new categories can venture to cockpit upon your configuration.

Hi ,

If you have maintained as "*" as product category then you don't need to maintain the source system..

Hi Muthu,

1. The settings are Int. Proc. -> 3 Always external procurement and Ext. Proc. -> 2 purchase order if item data complete, otherwise purchase req.

2. We haven't assigned preferred vendor.

there can be several reasons for creating PR instead of PO. Please see the FAQ note 1173815 for the possible reasons, and the guide for debugging under:

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SRM/Howtoanalyzethefollow-ondocumentdetermination

i think you might give * in the product category.

give full name of product category and see the effect.

Hi Mehul,

please check if the badi BBP_SRC_DETERMINE is implemented.

If so what is the logic there?

and also check for the logic in these badis

1. BBP_CREATE_BE_RQ_NEW

2. BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI
