(1) What are the best practice followed when you implement SRM on
EBP_BACKEND_PRICES report scheduling?
(2) can you transfer MAP successfully more than one plants?
(3) mr21 if you change MAP , Again do we run manually this report EBP_BACKEND_PRICES?
(4) Whenvever you create a material master in ECC ?What mechanism you followed to update a price in SRM?
(5) Does any one set variant for this report as daily to update MAP? i aware it is just for approval purpose only.
i wanted to know how inteligently you have define them for customer satisfaction.
Please share your experience?

Hi Muthu,
You can schedule EBP_BACKEND_PRICES job to replicate the Moving Average Price (MAP) of a material from ECC to SRM
This report has only two options, one is to get the MAP of the first plant or average of the MAP from all plants in ECC.
You can't replicate the MAP per plant (as most of us would like to see).
When you change the MAP with MR21, you need to manually run the job or you can schedule it periodically (mostly nightly)
When you create a material in SRM, the CRM middleware will push the materials to SRM automatically, but the MAP is replicated when this job is run.
Yes, this MAP is mostly used for approval process only.
Regarding, customer satisfaction, not so much due to the inability to replicate the MAP per plant and also once you add the material to the SC line item, you can't change the unit price.
But as a Buyer, you can change it in the sourcing cockpit or while creating/sourcing the PO.
Let me know if I answered some/most of your questions.
Thanks,
Chinna Swamy

Hello ,
About the question 4
We could bring the price by EBP_BACKEND_prices report from ecc to srm.However this price is for only informal. This price will be over ridden by like contract/ inforecord/vendor list when it creates a PO .
