Goods receipt in SRM or R3

Former Member

Hello SRM Gurus,

I understand that GR can be done in either SRM or R3. We use the classic scenario so I know that my GR will get posted in R3. My questions are:

1. Are there any advantages to creating GR in SRM vs. in R3?

2. How do I specify whether GR is to be performed in SRM or R3?

Regards,

HP

Hi HP,

it depends on the processes and users:

1. SRM has a more nicer front end, easier for end users

2. depending on the structure of receiving - central / decentral; it also needs to

be seen with other processes performed in parallel, which system should be

the preference.

Hi Claudia,

Regarding point #2, we have yet to work out the details but my guess is that the receiving role will be decentralized, by requisitioner. My questions is more system specific, i.e. is there a program/config setting that I can explicitly check to dictate whether GR will be carried out in SRM or R3?

Thank you,

HP

Hi,

There is no configuration point except through role configuration in PFCG to give or not the GR menu to the user.

If you want to code a logic based on material group or whaever you want, you have to do it in badis.

Hi HP,

like Yann mentioned, there are no specific settings needed.

The decision, where the GR is done is process driven and depends on your

definition and your business. Based on that design, user get the roles in SRM

and/or R/3 to perform their tasks. For typical indirect procurement, the GR is done

by the requisitioner or much easier, automatically in combination of ERS

procedure.
