PO Confirmation & Tlane

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Currently, in my system, even though Transportation lane (Tlane) is blocked, Purchase Order confirmation is getting transmitted between SNC and ECC systems. Is there any setting in configuration which I can do so that when Tlane is blocked, PO confirmation doesn't get transmitted? Kindly share the configuration path where I can do the setting.

Thank you

Hi Ravi,

Go to SPRO >> Supply Network Collaboration >> Basic Settings >> Validation >> Own Settings >> Maintain Settings in Validation Profiles

and maintain below settings

Profile:POC1

Validation check:PO_LANE_MISSING

check status:Active

Message type:E

Save mode:N Do not save Message

Continuation Mode:C Continue checks

Profile:POC1

Validation check:PO_Contract_Assign

check status:Active

Save the above settings.

Now create new PO and check.

Hi Nikhil,

I maintained the settings suggested by you and checked the issue by creating new PO. Unfortunately, the issue still persists. Meaning, PO confirmation successfully transmitted to ECC from SNC even after blocking Tlane. Is there some other setting which needs to be done here? Please advice.

FYI: Tested the issue 2 times, once by not adding the settings shown in blue below and 2nd time by adding the setting in blue.

Profile:POC1

Validation check:PO_LANE_MISSING

check status:Active

Message type:E

Save mode:N Do not save Message

Continuation Mode:C Continue checks

Profile:POC1

Validation check:PO_Contract_Assign

check status:Active

Message type:E

Save mode:N Do not save Message

Continuation Mode:C Continue checks

Hi Ravi,

You need to maintain below entry:

Go to SPRO >> Supply Network Collaboration >> Basic Settings >> Processing Inbound and Outbound Messages >> Maintain Settings for Master Data Completion

Select below entry:

XML Inbound Interface= REPLORD_I ReplenishmentOrderNotification

Process Type= ICH Supplier Collaboration

then double click on Profile table:

XML Inbound Interface= REPLORD_I ReplenishmentOrderNotification

Process Type= ICH Supplier Collaboration

MD Profile=SREPLORD

Seq.No.=10

Location Type=1 Ship-From Location

Method=04

Location Number leave this entry blank

Save this entry.

Now when you create PO then PO XML should fail in SNC.

Hi Nkihil,

I have done the settings suggested by you. But still PO confirmation is getting transmitted to ECC from SNC when Tlane is blocked and the issue is still not resolved . Please check and advice.

Hi Ravi,

Have u created new PO after this setting?

You have now setting for Ship-from location such that system should pick ship-from location from transportation lane.

So System should not allow to create PO in SNC if transportation lane is having block indicator.

Hi Nikhil,

With this setting, when I block the Tlane, PO creation, PO change XMLs are getting blocked, but PO confirmation XML from SNC to ECC is not getting blocked. My requirement is that, when Tlane is blocked and PO is confirmed in SNC, then that confirmation XML shouldn't get transmitted to ECC PO. Please check and advice.

Hi Ravi,

As a workaround you can have below solution:

Create Z_validation say ZPO_Invalid_Tlane.

Go to SPRO>> Supply Network Collaboration >> Basic settings >> Validation >> Own settings >> Maintain Settings in Validation Profiles

Validation profile:POC3

Validation check:ZPO_Invalid_Tlane

Check Status:Active

Msg.Type:E

Save Mode:Do not save message

Continuation check: Discontinue check

Validation profile:POC5

Validation check:ZPO_Invalid_Tlane

Check Status:Active

Msg.Type:E

Save Mode:Do not save message

Continuation check: Discontinue check

save the changes.

Now you need to implement badi  /SCMB/BOL_VALFRMWRK with logic such that whenever T-lane is blocked system should not allow to confirm.

For permanent fix raise OSS with SAP.

Please note:When you have blocked transportation lane system won't allow you to create ASN.

Hi Nikhil,

Thanks a lot for your reply. I shall go to SAP for this issue. Yes, I am aware that ASN cannot be created when Tlane is blocked.
