Hello SRM Gurus!

We are trying to build Purchase org structure. here is scenario. Cost center driven Model

- 1 V.P. is responsible to 5 cost centers

- 1 Director works with min 2 V.P. i.e 2 cost centers OR 1 VP/cost center will have 5 director

- 1 Manager works with 2 directors - 2 cost centers OR 1 Director will have 10 Managers

- 1 requestors works with 3 Managers - 3 cost centers OR 1 Manager will have 10 requester.

ECC org structure :

1 company code will have 3 plants & 1 Purc Org

Can I get some input in Building the Purchase Org structure.

Hi Masa,

Thanks!

So you mean one company code will have one Pur. Org.

Every Plant will have 3 pur groups.

As I told there are 150 cost centers. Each VP will have min. 15 max .. 60 cost centers with him ...controlled by him.

Should I assign users by plant, Pur group or all under one Company OR cost center wise.

Pl. suggest

regards

Mangesh

Hi,

I would use HR replication if ERP has Organization Structure.

If no HR, you can define Org structure for easy maintenance way.

Main usage for Org structure is attributes maintenance and workflow approval.

You can implement dynamic approver setting by BADI for workflow so you need to find out what is simple Org structure for easy attributes maintenance.

Hi,

ERP side has 1 company code and 1 Purchasing Organization.

I suggest SRM side should have 1 company code and 1 Purchasing Organization same as ERP.

If you worry about workflow approval, you can implement dynamic approver determination by BADI.
