Plant Maintenance and ECS SRM

[Former Member]

I've been asked to investigate the feasibility and steps involved in integrating Plant Maintenance to SRM.

I've looked at the standrard documentation and it appears that this is pretty straightforward.

Can anyone give me any pointers on the following:

1) What BAPIs etc are used to transfer the PReq from the backend to SRM.

2)What are the require configuration settings ?

3)Are there any attributes that need to be maintained within the org plan?

Hi,

ad 1) BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER - program to transfer PR to SRM

Table EPRTRANS have nformation about PReq to transfer.

ad 2) Good start is read config guide Plan-Driven Procurement with Plant Maintanance available on service.sap.com/instguides (Business Suite\SRM)

ad 3) Yes, all attributes are in config guide describe above.

Hi,

In addition to Marcin answer, you can connect your catalog directly to PM in transaction IW31 and IW32.

There is also a scenario to connect PM with SRM without external requirement configuration.

This is the "old way" and "abandonned" by SAP: please see here :
