We are in the process of building a SRM sandbox environment, and the business team are stating that they are expecting to leverage a 'hybrid' approach to implementing the system where they have some functionality from the Classic scenario and some from the Extended Classic. Is this feasible?
We are already live on ECC6EHP8, and we have a PO 7.5 box. For this sandbox environment, we have stood up a single SRM 7.14 server with the db, an AS ABAP and AS Java stack. We created a second client for SUS but have not done any config yet.
From the master guide it appears there are three technical scenarios: Standalone, Classic and Extended classic. Presuming that a hybrid scenario approach is feasible, should I implement the Extended Classic implementation steps?
1. Extended classic scenario = If you need to edit PO in SRM and send a read only copy to ECC
Do GR in SRM and send a copy to ECC
2. Classic Scenario = Create PO in SRM and send an editable copy in ECC
Do GR in ECC and can /cannot update back to SRM
Most people implement extended classic since you would want the PO to be modifiable only from SRM and not in ECC
Mostly depends on what your business requirement is

Hi,
Yes, you have to implement the extended classic steps. With BADI BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI you determine whether it is classic or extended classic.
Both scenario's can exist together. That said, seeing that SRM is at the end of it's life, I would go the classic route. It really depends on what special extended classic feature is needed in your business requirements.
Kind regards,
Robin

Hello Ray,
It depends on the used business process or functionality. Which functionality would you like to use from Classic and from Extended Classic scenario?
Best regards,
Daniel
