Vendor Replication in SRM 7.0

Vendor Master Data Replication from R/3 System haven't chagned much in SRM 7.0  We still use the same old procedure to Replicate Vendor Master Data from R/3 System. The only thing that is changed is the Vendor Organization Strucutre.

From SRM 5.0 (or) Higer the Vendor Organizaiton Structure is available. We will see how to create a Vendor Oranziaiton Structure and the Replication of the vendors.

Following Tcodes shoule be used to create/maintain/display vendor organization structure.

• PPOCV_BBP - Create Supplier Groups
• PPOMV_BBP-Change Supplier Groups
• PPOSV_BBP- Display  Supplier Groups

First of all we need to create a Supplier group by executing Tcode PPOCV_BBP

Dates will be taken automatically, So just click on "Continue" or press enter

Enter the Object |abbr as your Object id and Name it as as per the requirement. Once this is done, Click on Save. Go to Attributes tab and input the values to the attributes Like Accounting System for the vendor, Company code,e.t.c, and click on Save.

Once this is done you will get a Vendor Group Number . Now go to BBPGETVD Tcode input the Object id as the new vendor group which was created earlier, Select system from the drop down box and in supplier text box insert the vendor number (or) range of vendors, Clcik on "Start Transmission" push botton in order to replicate vendor from R/3 and in the next screen clcik on "Start Transfer".

By doing this the vendor gets replicated to SRM System. Go to Tcode SLG1 to check whether the vendor is replicated or it has any errors, If it has errors then we need to correct those in R/3 and repeat the procedure.Go to table VENMAP and check there will be an entry of the newly vendor replicated
