Shopping Cart is creating PO in held Condition

[Former Member]

hello,

We are working with Extended Classic Scenario.

We want Shopping Cart without Source of Supply to be appear in Sourcing.

Accordingly, we hv made setting under Sourcing node:

Prod. Cat." * "

Source System R/3

Sourcing: Sourcing Always carried out for items without source of supply

We dont have any local product categories maintain in SRM.

Kindly Suggest if anymore settings required for shopping carts to appear in sourcing.

When you trasnfer the PR's from R/3 to SRM syste, are they succesfullly getting trasnferred?Also for these PR's are the SC's being created?(See trascn BBP_PD).

hi disha,

No, thats not our scenario.

SC created in SRM and its automatically creating PO in held condition in SRM.

Although the requisite settings are made for Sourcing.

Hey

Look at the partners in the PO.

The vendor gets populated as the preferred, which needs to be converted to the main vendor.

This could be the issue.

Hi,

Just go the PO change mode and push "check" button so that the system give you the error or warning message.

You will be able to know why your PO is in held status and not in complete status.

Kind regards,

Yann

Taking it ahead..

We are having contracts in place for a particular product.

in Sourcing its " sourcing carried out for items without assigned source of supply" for this prod cat.

now when the user creates a Shopping Cart , in source of supply the sorce is assigned the contract .

but still instead of generating automatic PO's , ot makes Held PO.

Upon pressing check , it says the PO is correct

Can anyone assist.., B/r Vivek

Hi Harish,

In the SPRO > IMG > SRM > SRM Server > Sourcing

In the product category, instead of maintaining " * " maintain the product category for which you want the sourcing to be carried out.

This will definitely solve your problem. Generally it should not happen, you can look out for some SAP Note for this.

Let me know after doing this change.

Rgds,
