Creating shopping cart in SRM through an interface from an external system

[Former Member]

Hello,

i am currenlty working on a SRM implementation at a client and we are looking into

building an interface for purchase requisitions from an external system to SAP.

To be able to get these requisitions as a package approved I would want them to go though the

approval process in SRM. Does anybody know if it is possible to create a shopping cart in SRM through an interface from another system?

thanks,

Geert

Hi. Function module BBP_PD_SC_CREATE will let you create a shopping cart but it is very hard to get it working, and there is some discussion abouit whether it should be used.

If you search on SDN for this function there should be some more info for you.

SRM has a standard business scenario of PDP PM

here the external requirements are transferred to SRM for sourcing

in normal business scenario ECC PR is transferred to SRM which creates a dummy SC or say sourcing SC in SRM which appears in Purchaser's worklist after correct settings

SRM can work with NON SAP system also

so logically yr requirement should be possible

but in ECC PR transfer case the SC created in SRM is already apparoved.
