SRM 7.01 (with GOA and external req) and ECC6 EHP 4 without PI, is possible?

Hi,

We are going to upgrade sap SRM to 7.01 version (from 5.5 version), currently we have the classic scenario with external requirements from ECC and the GOA contracts in SRM replicated to ECC.

We don't have PI and if is possible we don't want to install PI, is possible to continue without PI and using GOA contracts in SRM 7.01? also, is possible to maintain the current external requirements upload based on EPRTRANS and V_T160_EX?

Thanks.

Hi Mathu

You will use Central Contracts and you can replicate through SOA scenarios.

You can use this helful post:

And yes, you can keep your current external requirements process.

Thanks Martin for your help,

One question about Central contracts, Can I maintain GOA instead of CCR?.

if the answer is NO, Is neccesary to transform the current GOA contracts to Central contracts?, and if we decide to use PI for central contracts, Can we use the old external requirements process(V_T160EX) without PI?.

If is possible we want to maintain the current GOA contracts process.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,

Any idea about the possibility of maintain GOA contracts in SRM 7.01? we don't want to use PI and we want to maintain GOA contracts to avoid data migration from GOA contracts to CCR contracts.

Thanks.

Hi Mathu

You will not have GOA contracts anymore. Take a look at this post:

And besides having PI or not, you can use the old external requirements process.

Please reward points if helpful.

Kind regards
