ipc for SRM self service procurement

[Former Member]

we are setting up our SRM server for self-service procurement, when I try to configure IPC server, the administrator tool ask me which system for IPC to connect to: DATABASE, CRM system or R/3 system. there is not an option for SRM system. which one should I choose? I picked CRM system and IPC seem to work fine, is SRM considered CRM system in this case?

Thanks

Hi Jane,

In fact EBP and CRM were sharing the same platform til CRM 4.0.

That is why you'll find some CRM references in the SRM system (especially in IPC which was first designed for CRM).

Dear Jane

At many places specially for middleware settings Srm uses CRM middleware settings as SRM in not fully concise with middleware settings.

Like where we define the sites in transcation SMOEAC we use R/3 and CRM sites to define the SRM and r/3 sites.

Many at places SRM uses CRM infrastuture for middleware settings.
