SC item 'Cannot be ordered'

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a SC is approved and the item has status 'Cannot be ordered'. The follow on document is not created though the SC is complete. This there a way to reprocess the SC and create PO?

Kindly advice.

Regards,

Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,

Can you check the items of the cart? When an item is completed in the sourcing cockpit, the item status should no longer be shown as Approved. The note 946524 explains the behavior in detailed.

When the item status is shown, it is calculated based on the different values of the item. The item has the source_rel_ind set to Y, which means that the sourcing is completed for the item. If sourcing is completed for the item, it will no longer be shown in sourcing cockpit. Indeed the item would show the correct status 'Not orderable'.

Can you cross check whether this is the case?

thanks,

Ashwin

Is SOCO enabled? If yes, check if it is in the Sourcing Cockpit, if not check Purchaser's inbox.

Hi Ramesh,

Login as administrator and go to Monitor shopping cart enter your shopping cart number and look for the error.

Hi Sridhar,

There is no errors in the Monitor.

Do you know the FM which is used to reprocess the SC?

So are you saying that the shopping cart hasn't actually been created at all ?

Can you find it using tx BBP_PD?

Hi Keith,

The SC is available, the PO is not created at all, after the SC was approved.

Ramesh,

Try using FM BBP_REQREQ_TRANSFER, but based on the S/C status (I1111) you may need to use program BBP_ALERT_SB_NOTTRANSFERED to reset the status before attempting to re-submit the S/C to the backend.

I hope that helps.

Hi Hinson,

We are using ECS scenario. Does executing the function module you have mentioned creates the PO?
