Vendors are not replicated

[Former Member]

Hi Everyone,

I am working on SRM 7.0 - ECC 6.0 landscape with Classic Scenario. When I try to replicate vendors with BBPGETVD only 2 vendors got replicated out of 288. Now when I try to replicate them again I receive a message saying "All backend descriptions are already assigned in the system". I had seen this message earlier when you try to replicate vendors that are already replicated. So I tried to use BBPUPDVD to see if I can update and get the missing vendors. However, when I get to the second screen I see that only those 2 vendors that has been replicated are considered to be updated and the remaining 286 vendor are given in a list as missing vendors.

Can you please help me to understand why these vendors are not getting replicated? Can it be that they have missing information so SRM do not consider them for replication?

Thank you in advance,

asli

see our dave important point.

Yes, just make sure that the external range in SRM starts with your lowest vendor number in ECC and ends with the highest possible number.

There will only be 1 range in SRM but it must cover all 5 ranges in ECC.

Just make sure your internal range in SRM does not overlap with any of your vendors in ECC or you will have major problems. I like to give SRM a very high range for internal business partners, then you can use most of the numbers for your external ranges to match ECC.
