SRM - SAP/Procurement

[Former Member]

Hello Guys

I am new with SRM and I have a work flow that work at the moment with the engineers creating a reservation that is checked by a warehouse material manager which according with the material availability triggers the procurement process creating a PR or just goods issue the material.

Is there any possibility that the SRM automatic would triggers the procurement process according with the material availability, remember that the reservation that the engineers raise it is allocated to a WBS element, and our stock is not valuated, which means the cost to the project comes from the PO.

If some one could send just the material that would explain some possibilities about the shopping cart triggering the warehouse management would be enough.

Thanks

Hi Carlos,

this is not possible alone within the SRM System.

Instead of this I would suggest the external requirement scenario.

You can do the MRP in the R/3 backend system, and send the purchase requisitions (depending on purchasing group or material group) with the external requirement scenario into the SRM system. This request will be sent into the sourcing coocpit as a shopping cart, which can be proceed by the sourcer (PO, Bid, Auction).

Kind regards,

Peter
