External Requirements and local Product Categories

Former Member

Hi all,

please could you assist:

We are running SRM 7 with several ECC backends in ECS.

We would like to transfer ext. requirement from one backend to SRM (via BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER).

No problems so far.

Prerequisites:

Product categories should only be maintained local in SRM (no r3MATCLASS).

Idea for Solution:

Use of BADI PRODUCT_CUSTOMER2 and BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI to use the internal product category for replicated materials and for the Inbound external requirements

Questions:

If we now transfer an external requirement from ECC to SRM (including a product), how does SRM behave (STANDARD)?

Is it mandatory to obtain the replicated product in SRM including the backend product category?

That would mean, we have to replicate the product categories from ECC as well and could not map the incoming requirements to "our" SRM interlanl product categories?

Any experience concerning standard SRM checks for external requirements?

Thanks and best regards

Andreas

Problem solved

We have just mantained local product categories.

Replicated products (from ERP) are automatically switched to these local categories
