EBP PO Ack. ( Vendor rejected )

[Former Member]

Hi,

SRM 5.0, Extended Classic Scenario

Step 1) Shopping Cart is created

Step 2) SC is approved

Step 3) PO is created in EBP and replicated to R/3

Step 4) PO is communicated through ALE/IDOC/EDI to the Vendor from EBP

Step 5) Vendor is "Rejected" (REJ) the PO and communicated through EDI to EBP

Step 6) Question 1) What and where will I see the rejection status in EBP

Step 7) Question 2) Will EBP "Open" the corresponding SC automatically ?

With regards,

Pranav

Hi Pranav

It should be PO Response.

If there are differences between the PO response & PO, the differences can be monitored and approved/rejected.

Hi Ramki,

Thanks for your reply.

I agree that PO response can be monitored and approved/rejected.

Assume Vendor rejected the PO and I have approved the "rejection" when I review the PO response.

Will EBP "Open the Shopping Cart" to place an order again with another Vendor ?

OR

Do I need to create a SC manually whenver I approve the Vendor rejected POs ?

Pls. help.

Hmm...

Logically, Yes.

But, frankly, Never tried this... so, not sure.
