Hi SAP Experts,

Our SRM system is currently set up via ECS (Extended Classic Scenario) I want to change a certain supplier's output medium from Print to XML but I can't seem to find it. Thank you for your assistance

Hi. You need to log into the vendor (external business partner) from NWBC or the portal and edit the vendor.

I think as standard it is in the operational purchaser role.

Once in the vendor, click on "Contact Data" which is on the first tab, then scroll down to output medium.

Here you can change to print, email, fax and XML.

If you don't see XML as an option, you first need to change config in SPRO, cross application settings > Activate SAP NetWeaver Process Integration

Even if you are not using PI, you need to activate this option to get XML to appear as an output option.

Once it appears then the method call output options will be available for you to play with. I've made it call the standard IDOC output in ECC from SRM for my EC POs, as we already have PI in ECC it was easier that way. You can implement whatever options you want once you have the output calling a method.

Dave.

Hello,

during vendor replication (BBP_VENDOR_SYNC report), FORM set_send_medium_mode is used.

Have a look at it.

Hi Laurent,

Since it is from vendor replication in R/3, will you know where I can edit it in R/3? Thanks

Use table: BBP_SENDMEDIUM

Function: BBP_SNDMDM_REPLACE can help you
