Extended classic to Classic

[Former Member]

Hi,

When would a switch from ECS to Classic be justifiable?

Thanks.

Hi,

In addition to what Ranjan has mentioned, classic scenario is usually used by clients who have a well defined ECC system and when they want all the control in ECC system. So SRM will only be used as a front end to shop but all documents like PO/GR/IV will be created in ECC and can be changed in ECC.

Dear srm_tech,

There can be many reasons. From business prospective, if the client wants to creates a reservation out of shopping cart in self service procurement scenario for the items that are already available in the stock, it is supported by classic scenario only and can be a good reason for switching to classic from extended classic scenario.

Secondly, for a particular set of suppliers, you have well defined EDI interface and you want to continue to use them. Then, you can think of using classic scenario to use existing communicaltion channels.

I hope, it helps you.

Thanks and regards,

Ranjan
