Classic Scenario multiple transaction type defined to create PO from RFX Response

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are using SRM 7.02 classic scenario with backend 6.06.

We transfer purcher requisition from ECC into SRM and create a RFX, from the RFX response we should be able to create a purchase order (we defined multiple transaction type for this) selecting one of them, We always get the same error Interval PO of number range object REQREQ does not exist,

Thank so much for your help

Customizing steps indicated below:

1- give internal number range for each backend document (in SRM system)

IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic Settings > Number Ranges > SRM Server Number Ranges > Define Number Ranges for Shopping Carts and Follow-on Documents

73	7300000000	7399999999
74	7400000000	7499999999
75	7500000000	7599999999
77	7700000000	7799999999

2- Create transaction types and assign Int. Number Range

IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic Settings > Define Transaction Types

FO	Contract/Work Order	74	02
IMP	Import PO	73	02
NB	Local PO	75	02
SO	Service Order	77	02

3- we are not  using multiple backend system, even tried to give the 4  ranges (74,73,77, 75) to same backend not possible, now defined empty  :

IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic SettingsDefine Number Ranges per Backend System for Follow-on Document

4- Give external range to the same ranges R/3 system

IMG: SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Order

> Define Number Ranges

5- define R/3 PO external number range in the document type already used (R/3 system)

IMG: SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Order> Define Document Types

FO	Contract/Work Order	10	44	74
IMP	Import PO	10	43	73
NB	Local PO	10	45	75
SO	Service Order	10	47	77

6- give document type in R/3 system by populating BSA attibut (PPOMA_BBP trasanction) with PO document type created

Document Type in R/3 System	BSA	FO	backend system
Document Type in R/3 System	BSA	IMP	backend system
Document Type in R/3 System	BSA	NB	backend system
Document Type in R/3 System	BSA	SO	backend system

Hi,

the error states that for the number range object REQREQ the interval with the ID PO is not defined.

You either need to rework the first step in you sequence:

IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic Settings > Number Ranges > SRM Server Number Ranges > Define Number Ranges for Shopping Carts and Follow-on Document

Instead of using number 73-77 use the ID PO for the range that corresponds to your backend PO number range.

Or you need to rework step 3

IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic SettingsDefine Number Ranges per Backend System for Follow-on Document

In this case assign the correct number range for PO's to you backend system --> NR_RANGE_PO = 75

The standard checks if he finds an entry in this table. If not, then he automatically searches for the number range with the ID PO which in your case doesn't exist.

Hope this helps

HiMarkus,

Thanks a lot,

My problem in that case there is no possibility to use the four different purchase order transaction types (FO, IMP, NB, SO) defined in R/3 and required in SRM.

In addition I tried to add the PO range as you indicate above, in efine Number Ranges per Backend System for Follow-on Document but there is no possiblity to indicate more than one range.

If it possible could you suggest me any solution to use multiple transaction for PO creation in classic scenario?

Hi,

the only way I see in this case is using method  GET_NUMBER_OR_RANGE of BAdi BBP_BS_GROUP_BE in order to assign a different number range...

This will definitively solve your problem but requires coding.

Hi Cristina,

Could you please also take a look at note 1173815 and check the customizing below in your system and let us know if it helps?

SPRO -> Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server -> Cross Application Basic Settings -> Define Objects (purchase requisitions, reservations, purchase orders) in Backend System

Hi Wendy, thanks for your answer

the problem is in our case the purchase order is generated from a RFX response, the pop up with the transaction types appears once we select create purchase order we got the error.
