SRM 7 Central Confirmation Issue

[Former Member]

Hello,

We are on SRM 7.0 Classic scenario implementation how ever we have Goods Receipt done in SRM through Central Confirmation. We are 24/7 shop so someone who received goods during night shift goes in and perform Central Confirmation for the PO. Next day when PO creator who comes in and see the GR is performed but could not find out who created it.

Is there some security roles or setting which we need to do so that whenever user Search for Confirmation on his/her PO's using "Advance Search" option they should find out who received the items.

Please advise.

Thank you

Hi Ritesh,

As per standard system, it is not possible for End User to see the GR creator.

There could be workaround:

1) Assign Central confirmation Role to User, he can see the creator in field 'Created by' in POWL of Confirmation

2) Append the structure for Confirmation by 'Created by' field(Basically modify the webdynpro component for confirmation) such that once user clicks on the confirmation number, he can see the created by field in item level/header level.

However as a Admin user, you can see in BBP_PD t.code of SRM system.

Hi Ankur, Rajesh,

Thank you for your response. User do have ability to do that, I think it was my mistake i did not put the question correctly. My question is mainly with Advance Search Option on Central Confirmation where user can search "Confirmation" or "PO" or "POR" or "Auction" etc.

As our requirement is to search based on PO Number mainly. While the Confirmation POWL do not have option to search by PO Number.

Could you please advise.

Thanks

Hi,

You can use button 'Quick criteria maintenance button' powl of central confirmation.

where you can give the PO number and find out the GR details in POWL query.

Hi,

Thank you for your response but whenever Requester is using Central Confirmation query with Purchase order they are only able to see Line items they have received for that purchase order. Line items which are received by other receiver of that purchase order is not being displayed.

Could you please advise.

Thanks

Hi Ritesh,

We are looking to implement Central Confirmation in our SRM 7.0 system. We are running the Classic Scenario, just like you are. Can you please explain how you setup Central Confirmation? I have tried before but was not successful. Are there certain roles and config I need to setup in order for Central Confirmation to work?

Thanks,

Hi Jeff,

Yeah, We have defined Portal Role and Which you can find under Content Administrator --> Content Provided by SAP --> Specialist --> SRM 7.0 --> Core --> Roles --> Goods Recipient and assigned this to User.

Also we have defined ABAP Role in which can be assigned in backend.

The only problem we are still facing is whenever user do central confirmation for someone else PO' the other person can't find out who did the confirmation and don't show under PO creator's POWL query.

Thank you

Hi

By using PO number you can get the confirmation number under follow on documents or releated documents link.

By using confirmation number (display or BBp_Pd) you can get know the creator of the confirmation.

ON the webgui side, you can know from the header data of confirmation where user name will be available who created

under history link or display change documents button.

Thanks
