Hi Venkatesh,

just create your own smartform via trx SMARTFORM.

Then implement BADI BBP_CHG_SF_BID to switch from the standard smartform

calling to the custom one. Just specify the custom smartform name in the BADI

and activate the BADI.

Thanks,

Hi

<u>Please ensure, this Standard Smartform - <b>BBP_BIDINV_BID</b> gets called here.... Depending on your SRM System version </u>

<b>Please try this Sample code.</b>

method IF_EX_BBP_CHANGE_SF_BID~CHANGE_SMARTFORM .

IF SMARTFORM = 'BBP_BIDINV_BID'. " Standard Smartform 

SMARTFORM = 'ZBBP_BIDINV_BID'. " Call your Customer Smart form

endmethod.

Hope this will definitely help.

Hi

You need to make the Smartform changes accordingly.

Which Smartform in this case is getting triggered ? Give the complete details.

Do let me know.

Hi Atul,

In SRM 4.0 we have used BBP_BIDINV_BID smartform and we have copied this samrtform to our custom smartform and made some changes. Now in SRM 5.0 BBP_BID_INVITATION smartform is calling by default. So we have made customizing in SPRO to call ZBBP_BIDINV_BID smartform instead standard one.It is calling our custom smartform. But in middle process stops because interface is different. So it is not able to call our smartform.

So we have change new BBP_BID_INVITATION samrtform to our custom.
