Making shopping cart visible to goods recipient :

[Former Member]

Hi Experts!

I need to modifiy the goods receipient of my shopping cart and this change must make the shopping cart become visible to the new goods recipient.

I have done some prototypes and noticed that only when I change the REQUESTER and the GOODS RECIPIENT that the shopping cart becomes visible to the new recipient.

Otherwise, if I modify only the goods recipient, this makes no difference to the supposedly new recipient.

If I modify only the goods recipient of a shopping cart, should I expect the goods recipient to see the shopping cart? Or do I need to modify the requester of the shopping cart as well , i.e making the requester as the good recipient?

Thanks in advance for your reply!

Hi. Where do you want it to be visible? In the desktop GR screen?

What you could do is create a custom role with a custom auth object in as well as central GR transaction.

Then you can use BADI BBP_WF_LIST to check for the auth object and if the user has it restrict the list of all carts to just those carts that the user is the recipient for.

Hello Dave,

Thanks for your answer; it was very helpful.

On the GR screen :

You can list POs for which you are justthe recipient.

However, you can use the BADI BBP_WF_LIST to restrict the list.

But a recipient cannot list the shopping cart.

Hi. No, you must use a different transaction, BBPCF03 - Central receipt.

This transaction allows any user to receive any PO.

You can then restrict this using the BADI so that the user can only receive the POs where they are the recipient for.

You must change your roles to have transaction BBPCF03 instead of BBPCF02.

Hi Dave.

The users (recipient) are supposed to do normal goods receipt. THey dont need to have access to central goods receipt.

Thanks!

Hi. If you give the users central receipt, but then use the BADI to restrict it to only the carts that they are recipient for, then they will only be able to do a normal receipt.

If you want to use central receipt normally for some users you could create a new auth object and use it to only restrict some users to the restricted central receipt, and allow other users full central receipt still.

Hi Dave -

Is there anything else you have to set up in order to have a user be a central goods receiver? We created a copy of the SAP standard delivered role SAP_BBP_STAL_RECIPIENT which includes the role SAP_EC_BBP_RECIPIENT but when I go to Confirm Goods Centrally, i dont get any results back. Do i need to do anything in org attributes or is there something wrong with my security role?

Thanks
