Hi Guys,

We have SRM40, and we are activating sourcing cockpit. We have defined in customizing " sourcing always carried out" for particular product category. We are able to create SC successfully with the same product category, but it is not appearing in sourcing cockpit.

We have given following roles to requestor:

SAP_EC_BBP_PURCHASER

SAP_EC_BBP_OP_PURCHASER

SAP_EC_BBP_ST_PURCHASER

SAP_EC_BBP_EMPLOYEE

SAP_BBP_STAL_ADMINSTRATOR

SAP_EC_BBP_ADMINSTRATOR

Are we missing something to activate sourcing cockpit?

Regards

Neelesh

The BADI " BBP_SRC_Determine" doesn't exist in our system.

Is this BADI required to activate sourcing cockpit?

Hi Neelesh,

In SPRO ,for this SRM-SRM server->Sourcing->Define soucring for product category.

Make entry like mentioned below

Category id *

Sourcing system Blank

Sourcing Options 2 sourcing always carried.

<b>Details from SPRO</b>

Choose New Entries. A table row appears where you can enter data.

2. Enter a product category and source system.

Note (see also the example below):

When the product category is entered manually, SAPEnterprise Buyer automatically fills the field for the source system (provided that it can determine a unique source system). If product categories with the same category ID have been replicated from several source systems, SAP Enterprise Buyer leaves the field for the source system blank. You can use the input help to select a unique source system for each of these product categories and, if necessary, create several rows each with a different source system.

You also have the following options:

<b>You can specify the product category generically by entering *. In this case, the source system field also remains blank because no unique assignment is possible.</b>You can enter the source system manually only if you have also entered the product category manually.

3. Use the input help to select an entry for the Sourcing field, and save your input.

I think,this issue will be solved with this.

Do youmean implementation doesnt exists inyour system?

Documentationof this BADI:

With the Business Add-In BBP_SRC_DETERMINE, you can define if sourcing is to be carried out for a shopping cart item. For a shopping cart item, you can define the conditions (independent of the product category if you wish) under which SAP Enterprise Buyer transfers the requirement to the purchasers sourcing application.

Standard settings

With this BAdI you can override the following Implementation Guide (IMG) settings:

Define Interactive Sourcing for Product Categories.

Activities

In the method DETERMINE_SOURCING (which is called up after a shopping cart is approved and also, in the case of external requirements, after these have been created in Enterprise Buyer), you have the following parameters:

Importing

HEADER_BBP_GUID

GUID of the shopping cart

ITEM_BBP_GUID

GUID of the shopping cart item

Changing

SOURCING

Determination of sourcing

If the system is to carry out sourcing for a shopping cart item, you set the value of the changing parameter SOURCING to X, otherwise you leave the value empty.

Thanks,

Hi Neelesh,

Please run the transaction swu_obuf once .

After that create SC and see it's status and approval.

I feel that it may be stuck in approval process.

One more thing, I just would like to tell you, that after creating SC, I have checked in tcode -> BBP_PD for the same SC, I couldn't see flag "source_rel_ind" set.

Please tell me, what could be reason for this?

Hello Neelesh

What is the status of the Shopping Cart ? What do you see in Follow-on documents for the shopping cart ?

Best regards
