Visibility of Inventory at Vendor Location using Inventory Overview Monitor

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have the following Business Requirement:

"Customer to have visibility of the inventory of the Location Product maintained at the Supplier Location. The inventory data will be sent by the supplier through EDI on a daily basis"

Note:

1. This is for a standard Purchasing process (not subcontracting).

2. The other scenarios involved are PO,ASN,Invoice & OFM.

We were planning to use the "Inventory Overview Monitor" functionality under SNI to achieve this functionality (Ref : http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm70/helpdata/en/f1/2f5642222fc553e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm)

Can anyone tell me what will be the

a. Master Data

b. Customization / Configurations on SNC system

c. Developments ( I think the B2B interface - mapping the EDI Inventory file to the ProductActivityNotification XML message is the only RICEF required)

required to use this functionality?

Thanks
