Receive goods event without inbound delivery

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

The procurement visibility process, controls the following document flow:

Purchase Order -> Inbound Delivery -> Goods receipt -> Invoice receipt -> Payment.

The standard process detailed in the SAP Business process procedure, mentioned the flow I described previously.

In this moment my client requires in this process, manage in EM the following document flow:

Purchase Order -> Goods receipt -> Invoice receipt -> Payment.

They don´t have Inbound delivery in this process and is not an option including this in the Business procedure. In order to give an answer, I show them the following SAP configuration

SPRO -> Integration with other mySAP.com components -> Event Management Interface -> Define Application Interface -> Define SAP EM Interface functions

In this configuration we have two main functions:

Expected event extractors section:

PCM10_ITEM -> /SAPTRX/XEE_MM_ITEM_PCM10

Event data extractors section:

PCM10_GR -> /SAPTRX/XET_MM_GR_PCM10

The solution I propose consist in create Z function starting with the copy of the two functions mentioned, modifying them in order to change the system behavior and generate the event message of goods receipt directly when I execute MIGO 101 movement, and don´t VL32N like the SAP standard procurement process said. This requires ABAP Code.

I appreciate a lot if you can give me your opinion about this solution and correcting me if exist a standard solution for this requirement and we don´t need to modify the standard functions of the system.

Thanks a lot and Best regards,

Julián.

Hello Julian,

yes thats the way you should go.

Copy the standard process and afterwards replace the extractors for Expected Events and Event Type to fit into your scenario. I think the relavance conditions must then also be adjusted.
