SRM 7.01 Classic Scenario PO against shopping cart

[Former Member]

Hi,

  To the best of my understanding, Shopping Cart could create a PO in back end ECC (Classic Scenario) without PI

   Has this changed with 7.01? Do we need to have PI for process?

  If yes, how will this take care of any errors during PO creation?

  Is the following relevant from the point of creating a PO without PI?

Hello,

As of SRM 7.0, you have the possibility to create POs in ECC via XML. This will require PI.

However, if you still want to use RFC to creatE POs in ECC, you should maintain ERP type as ERP_3.0 in table BBP_BACKEND_DEST for the ECC system in question.

If you maintain ERP_4.0 or higher, this will trigger the XML methods in SRM.

Hi,

The usage of PI is optional as long as you:

1.Do not connect to an ERP 6.0 back end with an active EHP 4

2.Do not connect to Supplier-Self-Services

3.Do not want to upload data from SRM Server to the SRM-MDM catalog

4.Do not need to receive or send XML documents

if you don't any one of above then PO can be created in ECC with help of following.

Via RFC and BAPI_PO_CREATE1
