Dear Experts,
We come across by a strange problem in SRM 7.0 e-Procurement.
After creating the invitation by the user (purchaser) if he saves it then it is getting saved. But if the user publishes it a message is being shown as 'tender <no.> published ' but the status still remains as awaiting approval. I've checked the status codes in BBP_PD there is not published code presented.
Status Description Inactiv
HEADER I1009 Held X
HEADER I1015 Awaiting Approval
HEADER I1021 Created
HEADER I1038 Complete
HEADER I1041 RFx Ready
This is we are facing in QA system for last 2days after 3 years successful run of e-procurement.
Kindly suggest how to overcome this. Or do I need to raise an OSS message in the prospect?
Regards,
Ramana
Hi Ramana,
First do you use automatic approval for RFx?
Then does this issue only happen to one RFx? Can this be reproduced for new RFX?
If this can't be reproduced, I can only suggest you manually approve it with trx swo1.
Meanwhile if automatic approval is used, you should also check if event linkage is activated for the following event with trx swe2:
/SAPSRM/CL_WF_PDO READY_FOR_RELEASE SRM_PROCESS_START
/SAPSRM/CL_WF_PDO READY_FOR_WORKFLOW WS40000014
Best regards,
Ivy

Hi Ivy Li,
We are not using automatic approval for RFx.
This issue is for all the RFXs getting created newly that too only in QA not in DEV or PRD.
After the opening the permission committee will get this approved but this comes into picture after the deadline dates have been passed.
But the problem which we have come across now is in very initial stage. Just created a simple bid invitation and published it.. status remains in 'awaiting approval'.
Thanks & regards,
Ramana

HI Ivy,
We are using customized process not the standard one.
it follows as - created bid invitation from portal -> save or submitt..
Now all the bidder can able to see the bid invitation published in the portal and can create their respective quotations against the Bid invitation.
We are facing the issue in the initial stage.. after publishing the tender (Bid invitation ) the status is not getting converted to published..
Seems I need to raise an OSS message...
Regards,
Ramana
