confirmations

[Former Member]

Hi All,

System : SRM 5.0 / R/3 4.6c

Scenario : classic

One of the clients requirement is that users shall be able to only confirm services on SRM and not goods. My idea was to go with the UI badi. Any thoughts would be appreciated

Points for sure!!

Hi Krishna

Sundeep's reco is very good but with some modifications.

You do not need to modify your data with 'M' or 'S' etc. Ofcourse, if you can already distingush your product categories for material & services, that would be good.

1) Use BADI BBP_WF_LIST to restrict your listing to list POs with item's of type 'Services' only.

2) Use BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI to see that only items of type 'services' can be confirmed.

Best regards

Hi Krishna,

Review the following options:

Are you using service masters or just using material masters to facilitate service procurement?

1.) You can modify the short description of all the product categories in ECC before replicating to SRM in the following format (all materials starting with M- and all service product categories starting with S-), if you are also using Service masters for procuring services then you dont need to perform the above modification.

Use BBP_CHECK_BADI to validate if the confirmation being created is a service or materials by checking if the product category selected for confirmation is a S- or M-. Depending on this criteria validate your confirmation accordingly.

2.) You can also use the BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY to filter the field product category and only display PO's with the S- product categories or if service masters then on the basis of product type 02.

Please assign points if answer is usefull
