Dear SRM Gurus

Is there any SOA webservice to directly use the Vendors in SRM from ECC?

Hi Bharath,

For vendor replication from ECC to SRM, you can only use trx bbpgetvd or report bbp_vendor_sync to replicate them. Of course you may schedule them as background job to run periodically.

Best regards,

Can you check the link as below

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm702/helpdata/EN/45/efc057348a3112e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm

In the link it its mentioned 

"Supplier master records are created in the SRM Server system. If a supplier in the master data record is flagged as a portal supplier, an XML message is sent to supplier self-services.The supplier data is transferred to the Business Partner Change Monitor (SRM Server) and can be transferred manually from there to the SAP ERP system."

Ideally the below steps are followed .

1.  Supplier registers in SUS (Supplier system) as a Potential Supplier.

2.  Purchaser logs into Pre-Select Supplier. Approves the potential Supplier.

3.  Supplier replicated to ECC via XI thru XML/Idoc(CREMAS)

4.  Buyer updates Vendor in ECC with other info like Bank etc in ECC.

5. Vendor Replicated to SRM through BBP_VENDOR_SYNC/BBPGETVD/BBPUPDVD

6. Vendor updated as a Portal Supplier in SRM and other follow-on doc attributes.

7. Vendor replicated to SUS via XI.

This ensures the vendor master is in sync in all the systems involved.

This supplier master from SRM can not be replicated to ERP. There is no standard interface for that.

You may have to develop a custom interface for this for creation of CREMAS/ CREMAS05 Idoc in ECC.

However from SUS you can create the supplier in ECC using from Supplier Pre-selection.

Dear Ivy

Thanks for the reply, We are searching for a solution, where we will not replicate the vendors to the SRM system, but we want to use the Webservice directly to ECC to get the vendors to the shopping cart.

Hi,

As per standard, vendors must be replicated to SRM. Then only you can use those in respective SRM documents.

Hi Bharath,

All these t-code and report can be scheduled as a background job to run them periodaically.

This is very convenient.

As far as I know, there is no field called vendor in SC, and SC will have vendors only when there is source of supply such as contract assigned.

Your requirement may need a big project to modify the system which I do not suggest.

best regards,

Ivy

I dont think so if there is any such webservice which will allow vendor to login to SRM or ECC System.  But you can use SRM-SUS or MM-SUS to allow vendors to see their POs/RFx/Auction etc.
