SRM Extended - PO Not Created in Back End System Although Shopping Cart is Error Free and Approved

[Former Member]

I have seen lot of messages posted in SDN related this issue , but no where i could get the solution to resolve this issue.

In BBP_PD  , The shopping cart remains in 'Approved' status and does not come across any errors .No purchase order is created in back end system.

I have debugged the complete shopping cart approval process and its related workflows.

During debugging, i confirmed that the system is deriving the back end object to be created as purchase order and does validations and no errors found. Only thing i could not see is try creating a purchase order.

We are using SRM 7.0 and back end system is 6.0.

Please let me know what;s wrong with the systems. Also to highlight that this is the case only with a few shopping carts and the rest are working fine i.e. creating POs once they are approved.

OSS Note : 1788671 - BBP_SC_AUTO_RETRANSFER to resubmit the SC

Hello,

if the workflow for the WI is completed, this means workflow event "Setreleased" did not triggered the follow-on document creation.

Check OSS note 1499352 - SRM Transfer: Redesign, bug fixes (regarding report BBP_PD_SC_TRANSFER) and to all its related OSS notes.

Have a look at KBA 2233889 - Diagnostics of status reports and BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB

Hi Deepika,

Please check any RFC errors for workflow in SM58. The worklfow ID might be getting locked.

Hi Deepika,

Please also check sourcing indicator of the related SC item(s). Open SC in BBP_PD, click on the related item and seach (ctrl+F) for source_rel_ind field.

It is possible that another sourcing activity is determined based on product category (as Vinita mentioned) or the item is stocked in transfer.

See details in Wiki: http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/x/pAC1G

Hi Deepika,

There could be lot of reason(unknown) PO does not create despite fact SHC is already approved.

in most cases WF issue.

What do you see in item status in shopping cart search screen?

hello Amit ,

when I go inside BBP_PD with my Sc , I can only see header status. It is

I1015  Awaiting approval     X

Where can I see the item status ?? Cant see it anywhere..

There is a status released field in item detail..it is blank.

but it is blank even for the SC that has a PO created..

Hi Deepika

Can you check a configuration in the system SPRO for sourcing ..

Maybe the SC is waiting for the PO to be created based on the config as below

Hi Vanita ,

We have not mentioned any config in sourcing.. We are completely by passing the sourcing

[vinita_kasliwal]

Did You check if the status shows error in transmission in BBP_PD  or check in RZ20 must be some error in the back-end .. Check the field SOURCE_REL_IND it should not be 'X'

I am assuming you have a classic scenario activated ?

Also check the field BE_OBJECT_ID  does it have any value ?

We have an extended classic scenario.. I have checked the things you mentioned but everything is fine.. We are now resubmitting the SC.. lets see if that helps.
