Hi Team,

Thanks for the response.It was really helpful.

I am trying to confirm PO with less quantity than requested and not checking that Conf Req indicator.System is not giving me an error but it is reducing the requested quantity too.

For example:

Po Quantity - 10

Conf Quantity - 9

Still there is 1 quantity to be confirmed.But in SNC Web UI,it reduced the requested quantity to 9 and changed the status to Confirmed.

Please suggest how to correct it.I want to confirm that 1 quantity later.

Thanks,

Nidhi

Hi,

You need to maintain below validation settings.

Go to SPRO>Supply Network Collaboration>Basic Settings>Validation>Own Settings-->Maintain Settings in Validation Profiles

Maintained below setting:

Vali.prof=POC3

Validation check=PO_ITMUNDERDELIVERY

Check status=Inactive

Vali.prof=POC5

Validation check=PO_ITMUNDERDELIVERY

Check status=Inactive

Vali.prof=POC3

Validation check=PO_ITMUNDERDELIVERY_WITHOUTZERO

Check status=Inactive

Vali.prof=POC5

Validation check=PO_ITMUNDERDELIVERY_WITHOUTZERO

Check status=Inactive

save this setting.

Hi,

We activated ECM - Extended Confirmation Management and we could create a partial PO confirmation. But now we are not able use the file transfer functionality for PO confirmations.

The system is giving an error while downloading the file saying that the "ECM is active, confirmations not possible".

Request to please let us know whether the PO confirmation file transfer functionlity for PO confirmations can be used if ECM is active?

thanks,

Karthick.

Hi,

Can we post multiple confirmations for a PO without the ECM activated?

We are having a scenario for e.g.

PO requested quantity 100

Partial PO Confirmation quantity 60

Partial PO ASN 40

The again the supplier confirms for the remaining PO quantity of 40 for a later date

Request to let us know if we can achieve the above scenario?

thanks,

karthick.

Hi Karthi,

The scenario requested by you is possible without ECM also. Ensure you have maintained the necessary customizing settings for the same:

a) SAP SCM IMG: Supply Network Collaboration -> Purchase Order -> Make General Settings for Purchase Orders -> Create Change Profiles for PO and RO items

Here, the entries corresponding to Distribution Status ="Published by Supplier" should have the "Disp Only indicator" unchecked.

b )SAP SCM IMG: Supply Network Collaboration -> Purchase Order -> Make General Settings for Purchase Orders -> Assign Change Profiles for PO and RO items

Kindly confirm if it works..
