Limit Item Shopping Cart has Incorrect Description in the ECC Backend PO

[Former Member]

Hello,

I make a limit item shopping cart in SRM 7.01. Then after approval, the shopping cart via PI 7.0 goes to the ECC 6.0 backend to make the Limit PO.

However, I notice that in the XML, the Description field of the shopping cart has been overwritten by the Product Category data of the Shopping cart. 

Correspondingly, in the ECC backend, the limit PO description carries the same data as the material group. 

This was not an issue when we had SRM 7.0.

Using transaction BBP_PD (in the SRM system, I see that the description field is not overwritten.  I would appreciate any help.

Many Thanks!

Hello,

I have this situation also in my system.

If you are creating a service/limit shopping cart, which generates a backend PO via XML, product category description will take place on item description.

This does not occur for material items.

This is the standard behaviour if you are using the ESOA interface.

If you create PO via RFC, this won't happen.

According SRM development, this is working as designed.
