Not able to close SRM PO.

[Former Member]

Hi Team,

We are using Extended Classic Scenario & SRM 4.0 version. While closing the Purchase Order, we are getting the Error - " Enter a country for partner .................... with type Goods Recipient". Also we are not able to close the PO.

Any idea - how to solve the Error, we have checked the Attriutes and Business Partner.

Please update the country details of the Employee (Requestor & Goods Receipient) in SU01 as well in the business partner data (Manager Business Partners).

Where are we defining the country details in SU01. In T.Code- BP, the country details are already defined.

It can be found in the Address tab of SU01, You have to click the expand button to get these fields. It can be found at the last part of section "Person".

One more thing, we have not maintained this data, but I have it maintained in BP, it is working fine for us. Please check the same in Transaction Manage Business Partner (SRM ITS/Portal -> Professional Purchaser -> Manage Business Partners / Transaction BBPMAININT).

Thanks for the help. Can we have 2 different country codes - one in SU01 and other in BP for the Requestor ( Goods Receipiant)?

Well, to be honest I have not tested this before. But, in anycase it can always lead to data inconsistency to have this different. The best approach is to maintain complete details in SU01 and when the user is assigned to org using transaction USERS_GEN; the system should ideally update all these info to the BP.

Hope this helps. Best Regards, Kathirvel

Hi lovkesh

Note 702787 - Message "Enter a country"

Note Language: English Version: 6 Validity: Valid from 05.10.2006

Summary

Symptom

If you have made an incorrect entry and you then enter an existing partner,

the system displays the message "Enter a country for partner XXX with type

'ABC' " by mistake.

More Terms

BBP, SRM Server, partner screen

Cause and Prerequisites

If you make an incorrect entry, the system sets the field ADDR_ORIGIN to

value 'B', because the incorrect entry is to be saved as a document

address. If you then make a correct entry, the system does not update this

value, and it does not find the master address of the new partner as a

result .

Solution

Implement the attached source code corrections.
