Backend purchase contract with no plant assigned to it

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are implementing SRM 5.0 in a classic scenario deployment and we going to create backend purchase contracts directly from bids, that is, no Global Outline Agreements are involved.

The thing is we would like to create a backend contract that could be consumed by more than one plant, that is, we cannot have a specific plant assigned to that contract.

Is it a possible scenario to be implemented?

Best Regards,

Hello Emilia,

If you create a R/3 contract from a BID, linked to a BID INVITATION created from a SC, you might get the plant from the SC item.

Else, plant data (partner Location) is not mandatory in RFQ (at both header and item level).

So you could have to delete it in your RFQ (if created from a SC), or use the BADI BBP_CTR_BE_CREATE to change sent data:

Here you can delete plant data, so your R/3 contract is valid for all plants.

Hi Emilia,

You scenario is very well possible.

And in contract you need not to give plant & it will be useful in various plants.
